A James Peterson intiallly called to tell me that I won the Publishing Clearing House of 2.5 million dollars. He told me to write down the following:

Confirmation Code 232373, Some digits of the check they are going to issue me-067006076, telling me I would need two photo ID's and that they would be arriving withing 1 hour and 45 mins. He also told me that I would be receiving $7,000 per month forever and a 2019 Mercedes Car. One year of insurance paid for with the insurere Geico and a 6 month gas card to be used in the state of Wisconsin. He gave me the following confirmation code of 331018012021US. He then asked me if there was a Wells Fargo Bank, an American Bank or some other bank near me so that I could be registered with the FDIC. None of those banks were located near me. I did give him the name of my Bank which I stated was registered with the FDIC. In any event they requested that I go to a Dollar General Store and get two Visa Vanilla Gift Cards that totaled $985.00 to pay for my 2% of the taxes that I would owe the government.They would pay for 98% of the taxes owed the government. They asked me to stay on my cell phone the whole time I drove and returned home. They then askedf for the numbers on the card. I only gave them one of the card numbers with the expiration date and CVS number on the back. While they were doing whatever - I promptly called the card companys customer service from my land line and cancelled the card and they are going to issue me a new one. The number that showed up on my cell phone was listed as a private number. I hung up on them and they keep trying to call me. I wasn't out any money. I had a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach. They kept assuring me it wasn't a scam but I can see by this website it was a scam. They told me that seven people would be showing up in 1 hour and 45 min along with two lawyers from Jacobee an Meyers. I am still waiting!

I received a call from a Mr. Carlos Brown stating that he was a general manager for the Publisher's Clearing House. He stated that I won 50 million dollars but 99% of my taxes were paid for so I only will receive 11.5 million dollars in a certified check lotto ticket, and won three cars. The three cars were Mercedes-Benz 2019 S36, BMW 2019 X6, and a Range Rover 2019 0 8 3 with all leather interior. The telephone number is 1-876-389-4013. He stated that I am the beneficiary of the package. He stated that I needed to get them a receipt with Western Union to equal $300 and include my ID. The address to use at Western Union was JAMAICA w. I. He also stated Mr Alex Louis is the name I should make the MoneyGram out to. He stated that they would deliver the check at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, July 15th 2019. I asked to let me know know what my address was. He could not tell me. Then asked me to calm down. But I was not yelling. I calmly just wanted to know if he knew my address. I confirmed the date and he repeated it. He also stated that Mr John Richmond is the general manager also. He wanted me-if I wanted- to give them a money order for $300 instead then I hung up.

I received a phone call today from Publisher's Clearinghouse. A man, with a Jamaican accent, said his name was David Esteban. He said I had won $5 million dollars and a Mercedes Benz. He gave me a package number and claim number. He was going to deposit the money in my account today. He said people in Gambier would be coming to my house. He asked me to go to Walmart and buy a $300 Amazon gift card. Then his men would come pick up the card, and give me a check and escort me to the bank. He said he was a very Godly man, and that my prayers had been answered. He said friends would take advantage of me if they knew I had won $5 million dollars so to keep it confidential. He kept saying, "I know you want to cry, so just let it out, let it out". He asked me if I wanted to be on radio or television or keep it confidential. I told him I could get to Walmart in the next three hours, and he responded that I needed to get there now. So, I told him I would call him back when I get the card.

Entered by BBB Staff SE 6-26-2019

Consumer received an "Executive Memorandum" from "Executive Vice President Deborah Holland" with the subject line reading "Incomplete Compliance for your $25,000 A Month for Life Prize Number". It appears there was a handwritten note on the top of the letter stating "Mr._______ This was sent after you've ignored prior notices! Don't you want to win?". In the letter there were instructions of what the consumer would be receiving in the next day and they provided a prize number to use when calling them.

Got a call from a Michael Foster who said I won some money from Publisher's Clearinghouse. Michael wanted me to send $700.00 for my taxes on the money. When talking to my husband, he said, NO! He wasn't paying any money to any one. When I told Michael what my husband said, he wasn't interest in talking to me any more. My husband and I figured it was a scam.

Called and was told I won over 2 million dollars, the caller identified himself as "William Kennedy" but sounded foreign. Asked him if he goes by "Bill" and the caller sounded confused. He mentioned his CEO " John Peterson with a code 995-20 would contact me with further information on how to get my 2 Million. Lots of red flags.

A lady call me stating I won $1 Million Dollars and they want to come to my house but, when they come it't going to be a suprise. So, she said, I'm not telling you when we coming. We know you are going to be so happy to receive your check. By the way, we are going to need you to give us your driver license number. My excitement die down and I figure this is a scam.
