I received a call on my cell phone on Friday Jan. 20, 2017 from David King who stated that I had won a Publisher's Clearing House prize for $2.5 Million dollars and a Mercedes Auto. When I tried to gain more info, he told me that his business was closing for the day and asked me to call back the next day. I tried to contact him the next morning he answered, but, said he was on another line and would call me back later. He never did. I assumed it was a scam.

I did a Google Chrome request to find out what part of the country call area code 876 was from, and the answer was Jamaica. I then asked what scams were tied to Jamaica and ones similar to mine were listed.

- Matthews, NC, USA

David Miller is calling stating consumer won 2 million plus a car. Receives several calls

I was told that I won a car and a bunch of money, I just needed to set up a new bank account so that they could deposit me $5,000 in that account. When I told the guy I wasn't giving him any info until I spoke to the ScamPulse.com he said "Don't do that, they'll tell you it is a scam"

- Amarillo, TX, USA

Said I had won big but needed to pay $380 then negotiated down to $50 for them to deliver my money. Said they had me on their GPS and had someone in the area ready to bring my millions. Called BBB instead to be sure it was a scam.

They call say they are from publishers clearing house are coming to your door and then ask you to get a moneygram for 255.00 to give to them... They lie you when you tell them you are calling publishers clearing house to verify they hang up

I got a phone call from "Mark Anderson" saying that I had won a sweepstakes in the amount of $3.5 million dollars from Publishers Clearing House, requesting that I call him back Monday am because he had some paperwork to do. Then he would show up at my door with a certified check for $3.5 million, plus a 2017 Mercedes Benz. What threw me off was the fact that he did not ask for any personal information, but I told him that I was working Monday am, but I would call him back on Wednesday am. I am going to assume that the call-back is when he would attempt to get my personal information. Well, he's going to be disappointed, because I'm mot calling him back Wed, or any other day.

- Nampa, ID, USA

Person called a said congratulations you won 2.5 million dollars. Then went to ask several questions. Then at the end asked for a $500.00 processing fee. I then told them I couldn't and they hung up.

I said sure but didn't go, he called back I said I didn't have a ride and googled claimers receipt and I shouldn't have to pay for a prize. He got angry stated he had gotten money from many elderly and he's in Jamaica there's nothing I can do about it.

- Lexington, NC, USA

Told me I won 855,000 and 5,000 a week for life. Then got the IRS man on line his name used Bill Jenkins man that called first was Barry Allen. When they got the IRS on line I told them they had to talk to my husband. They said I would have to meet them at the nearest food lion grocery store. He told them I would be there and accompanied by the sheriff. They hung up and didn't call me back like they said they would.

I received a call from a David Sawyer saying he was with Publisher's Clearinghouse. He told me my wife had won 3.5 Million dollars and a Mercedes Benz. He gave a 800# and claim # but I realized this was a scam because I could hear kids and a rooster in the background. This David Sawyer offered to meet me at the bank to give me a cashier's check. He said 9% in taxes would be taken from the check. He asked how late our bank was open. When I told him I believed it was a scam he told me he was a man of God.

- Lubbock, TX, USA

Caller claimed me and my husband were the winners of 2.5 million dollars, said something $1,500 to get a w2 claimed this was for the IRS.

Caller said we needed to go Walmart and send $100 to receive a Mercedes Benz and $550,000 (the dollar amount changed in the same call). When we started questioning the caller said that they would kill everyone in our home with C4 explosives as soon as the call was disconnected.

was called from 432-897-4953 told had won 90,000.00 given a verification number and told to contact 775-465-4269 for further information did a check on the number which comes up as a home number in Nevada

Scammer, Michael Turner, said that I had won over $2 million from Publishers Clearing House and that I would need to get a Western Union money gram or other means of getting $50 to Norma Barnhart in Ashtabula, OH. I did not participate in the scam, but was tempted. I do not believe that you have to pay money to receive money in a contest.

- Texarkana, TX, USA

I received an call from John Freeman claiming to be with Publishers Clearing House. He said I won 1.5 million dollars and a car. He said I must pay 249.00 to be registered to win today. He called me 3 times trying to see if I had the money yet. He had an accent from overseas.
