The caller said he was with the driver for the Publishers Clearing house. He told me that I was a second place winner and he was on my street delivering to the first place winner and will be there shortly. He gave me a number to call, and talk to a person named John Diamond, and was to give him my winner ID number within 10 minutes or I would forfeit my prize. I took the info, said thanks and hung up.

The same person call me back about 1 1/2 hours later to see why I hadn't called, when I told him that I dont do scams he hung up.

When I got home from work and told my wife, she said that she also got a call just moments before my call came in from the same number but never answered.

I have also received a call from John Diamond. He knew my last name but didn’t seem to have any other information.
This is a persistent bunch. They called me over 10 times across 2 days and even exchanged text messages.
I won $17.5 M and a 2024 Mercedes.
He kept calling it “publishers and clearing house” though

A Mr. Bob Green called us Sunday evening Feb 12,2017 telling us that because we are US citizens who pay their mortgage and taxes on time have won 4million dollars and a Mercedes Benz,color of your choice. Because of very bad connections, he called back again, told us we needed to call the headquarters of PCH to make arrangements. We called the number and no-one answered. Then at 10:30 p.m. while we were falling asleep he called again, so I dismissed him until the next day. He called Monday afternoon and this time *** spoke with him. ***called the "headquarters" number and spoke with a man who told him we needed to send money...as my husband probed the man with questions and challenged him with facts the amount kept going down. ($1700, $800, $286) The man said to make a Wal-Mart to Wal-Mart transaction to Myrna Palmer of Buffalo,TX. Bill then said we would call back after we spoke with our attorney. We looked info up on-line and found out PCH never does business this way and that over 250 scams were going on in our area. The man called again and *** told him the facts, and the man said of course, the attorney doesn't want you to have the prize....have a nice day. Bob Green had a strange slow way of speaking, my husband says they both sounded foreign...Maybe African. Bob used a term ....are you on board, get on board....expressions seemed unnatural.

Calls and reports that you have won The Publisher's Clearing House and that they will be out within the hour to take photographs. Within the hour, they call back wanting you to pay $250.00 state fees to cover photographs. "You are a big winner and $250.00 is just a drop in the bucket for the amount of money you have won", said Micheal Collins.

I received a call from Publishers Clearing House saying I had won $5,000 per week for life and a new Mercedes. They said I need to go to Walgreens and get a $300 card before they could deliver the prize. I asked if they couldn't just get it when they went to the bank with me to make my deposit and they said no, it has to be paid before delivery.

I have gotten several calls from this location the above # in one that a Mr. Carl Hyden gave me but the number on my ID was 876-597-7058. He claims I have won $2.5 Million Dollars and an additional prize of a car, or vacation, or cash to a credit card. He has called several times, and I keep blocking his number but he seems to check his phone number by a the last two digits.

I will not fall for this, but many people will when they hear Publishers Clearing house.

I have report the various numbers to Do Not Call, but that has never stopped anything.

Got call from Jamaica. Asked how I was doing and I said I was OK. Said they were from publishers clearing house. Asked if I could hear them. I hung up. I believe this might be that scam where they want you to say Yes so they can used voice recognition to buy products or services.

Caller claiming to be "Linda Gates" from Publisher's Clearing House left voice message while we were away. Said it was urgent that we call to claim our prize. We were skeptical but called anyway. Once my husband, XXXXX, said the word "Yes", the person hung up.

We have just learned that this is a new scam where they record your voice saying "Yes"...and along with your phone number can make purchases in your name.

The two phone numbers that "Linda" Gates" left on the voice mail were 865-268-8135 and 876-853-7462. We called the 865 area code number.

Caller claimed to be Ralph Johnson with a very thick accent. He claimed that I was a second place winner for publishers clearing house and that I had not only one 7000 a week for life but a Mercedes and $537000.00 cashieres check. He said that it was not a scam and they were at the airport waiting to make sure I was home. All I had to to was call the number back and he would go over further I formation. I looked up the number and only thing you can find is in Chinese.

They call from the number I gave above & ask if I saw it on my caller ID. Then say they want to know if I'll be home tomorrow to accept the Mega Millon prize along with a car then they need to ask a few questions to verify me... Do I shop at Dollar General, WalMart, Walgreens, Kmart,&Target. When did I last shop there with my credit/ debit card. Also ask if I'm married, who & how many people I live with, my age, & where I work. They keep calling & give a fake business liscense as well.

This person called and said I had won $18 million and a new car. He kept repeating that he worked for a legitimate company and that this was not a scam. I said I was skeptical and he said he would deliver the money. He called me Sweetheart and I asked him not to do so. He gave me a confirmation number and then asked me to repeat it. He then asked me if I was a legal resident and I told him I was not going to give out any personal information unless I knew this was a real company and offer. He then used vulgar language to describe what he would do to me. I hung up. He called back and my husband told him that we were going to call the BBB and hung up. The man called back 4 or 5 more times but I did not answer. I knew this was a scam call but this was the second time in a month that I received one like this and I was frustrated by it. I wanted to find out what they did and let him know that I did not believe him/them.
