They said I won 2nd prize in Publishers clearing house drawing.I knew it wasn't publishers clearing house so I requested a phone number to call them back.

- Arnold, MO, USA

I was contacted by phone that I had won a publisher clearing house sweepstake prize of 9.5 million dollars, $5000.00 a week for life, and a 2019 car with 1-year state farm insurance. They instructed me to go to Walmart to receive a money gram for $5000.00 payable to me as soon as I paid a $250.00 processing fee. This caller made this sound very believable and went to great lengths to insure me this was not a scam and he was not asking for any personal information. I got leary once they wanted me to go to Walmart.

I just emailed to a Publishers Clearing House Agent recently to let a Publishers Clearing House Agent know that I got scammed by fake Publishers Clearing House for the first time after I received a fake winner confirmation in the mail telling me that I'm a $1,000,000.00 winner with developmental disabilities for the first time 13 years ago.

I received multiple calls starting yesterday from a company claiming to be from publishers clearing house. They gave me a code 000157YB and told me I that I needed to call Mr Albert Johnson at 1-876-416-8541 they informed me I was the PCH grand prize winner of $6.5 million, $5K per month for life and a brand new car! What a deal!! They just wanted me to go to Walmart or Walgreens and get a $1k Amazon gift card that I would need to give to them on delivery of all of my prizes. So I told them I felt this was a scam and not interested and wouldn’t go get the gift card. They called countless times trying to convince me it was legitimate and for the $1K gift card they were going to deliver all my prizes from PCH in person to my business So this morning they started calling again. Again I told them I was convinced it was a scam. At this point they told me again it’s all legitimate and all being controlled and phone calls recorded under ScamPulse.com &IRS regulations. So I told him great I’m a ScamPulse.com member so I will call them for confirmation of legitimacy. They hung up instantly and have not called again

I received two calls telling me I just won $750,000 from PCH. All I would need to pay is $3,100 for fees and processing.

Received a call from Publishers Clearing House. The gentleman told me that I had won the Publishers Clearing House and they were going to come to my home and deliver my new car and prize money. He asked me how old I was, where I banked at and if I had any stocks. He told me I would need to send him $4,500. I told him didn't have that much money and he asked me how much I could send. I told him that I am not paying anything and said if I needed to pay I could pay it out of my winnings. He told me I couldn't do that. I told him I thought this was a scam. I called the Publishers Clearing House and they confirmed that this is a scam.

The scary part was that he knew my full name and address.

I've been getting calls for three days from John Green from Jamaica. He said: "Congratulations, you've won Publishers Clearing House, $7000 a week for life and a Mercedes Benz". He kept telling me he's a minister and ministers don't lie. He said I had been blessed. He said God Blesses and congratulations several times. He's coming this afternoon from Cleveland to give me my winnings. Just this morning he said I needed to get a money order for $499 to pay the shipping and handling. He asked if I was married, and he's been talking to my husband as well. He asked if I wanted it publicized or kept confidential. I told him I wanted something in writing from PCH.
