The caller said his name was David Johnson and I won 2.5m and Mercedes Benz from PCH. He also put his manager on the line and his name was John White his ext :25 ID 933145 check no 5058500127. He asked me to get a Walmart to Walmart sender form for $299 and send it to Betty Onellion. All this time he did not want me to disconnect. After I made the transaction, I called PCH and found out it was a scam. So rushed back to Walmart and cancelled it. He called back and left a message that he has my credit card info. I am worried he knows my address.

Phone call from the number above stated they were from Publishers Clearing House and that they were about to award me a cashier check for 9.5 Million Dollars. They told me that I needed to go to Walgreens, Bank of America, or Dollar General to pay for insurance on the dollar amount before the prize was delivered to my home and that they were in the State and going to be delivering the prize in 45 minutes. Spoke with local Walgreens and they said several other people had been in and told to wire money for insurance and that it was a scam.

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Publisher's Clearing house stating I won $960,00 and a Mercedes. Her name was Victoria Golden. I was not home at the time so they are to deliver prize tomorrow, Nov 1, 2016. She did not ask for payment for prize. She said I would have to give 2 forms of identification to their lawyer, David Brown. I have not done this nor have I seen David Brown. I was not asked for bank, credit card, or SS information. I was given a batch # 1985, conf# 392178, ck # 0098275300, pkg# B224. They called and I hung up, then they called back and my husband answered. He was asked why I hung up and he told them I thought it was a scam. Ms. Golden assured him that it was not a scam and gave me the information above in order to process the prize. I guess I well have some charge to my phone bill.

I received a call stating it was Publisher's Clearing House and I just won 1 million dollars and a Mercedes. They said it could be delivered within 2 hrs. They started asking me personal questions such as do I work. I told him I would not answer these questions. They then asked me for $425 and do I have that amount in cash at home or do I need to go to the bank. I told them I would need to go to the bank and they asked how long that would take. I told them 20 minutes, they said they would have to be on the phone with me this entire time due to Lawyers and legal issues. They said the money would be sent to an offshore account. I told them I was not interested and said his was a scam and hung up.

The man said his name was mark Auscin and lives in Jamaica.

I was contacted by Publishers Clearing House saying that I won $70,000,000 and a brand new car, and that I needed to send them money in order to get this. Their reason for this was because they stated that there was tax that I owed them, which I was not aware of. This was a red flag for me because I felt that if they needed to take out any taxes, they would take it out of the amount of money that I won.

Received a phone call from the above number telling me I have won some money and would I be interested in receiving it. I told them no because PCH does all their contact in person. They asked for by email address. I told them that if they were PCH they had it. The man asked me to repeat 3 times that I did not want it and it could go to someone else. I told him that I did not have to repeat anything 3 times. He hung up.

Called to state I won $2.5 million + 2016 Mercedes. Must send $499 via USPS Money Order (1%) of car value up front to cover "private delivery" of car rather than my going to NY to pick it up. Upon receipt of my money, a lawyer will appear at my door with a Fed Ex vehicle to present my prize.

*** ***, Code #6620033570, called and said he was with Publishers Clearinghouse and I won a prize. When I was asked to pay a service fee of $660.00 to get $5,000.00 a week for life, I told them I had never heard of paying a fee to receive prizes. I then ended conversation and called ScamPulse.com and was told I was right and it was a scam. This happened on September 27, 2016.

I received a phone call saying I was chosen from a entry I sent in to win (haven't done that for over 10 years) a 2016 Mercedes C Craft, and $955,000.00 would be delivered this afternoon. All I had to do was go to a Western Union office and deposit money then they would deliver the prize. First talked to a man who described who he was and for what. Then I was to immediately call 1-876-435-7520 press 5 Mr James Hunter. It all sounds Legitment. said was Public Certified, It was so convincing almost fell for it. I'm happy I had to tell him I was busy for half hour so had to call him back. just didn't feel right. Listen to that inner voice.

A friend requested to be friends on Facebook that I was already friends with. I excepted her request. This morning at around 710 am I started getting messages from whom I thought was my friend, At 1121 am she started asking me if I had received my "Mega Bonus" that was from Publishers Clearing House, in association with Facebook, etc. Cause she had already received hers. And that she said I needed to contact the manager in charge. I asked for the phone number and she sent me a link to the facebook page of said Manager (Susan Desmond). And to keep her informed of what was going on as I spoke with this Susan. I contacted Susan Desmond, who claims to be Claims Agent from Publishers clearing House. I was on this supposed list of winners and in order for to receive the 150,000 she need some information and 2000.00 for fees and insurance. When my daughter stopped by, I told her what was going on and she informed me to stop for in case it was a scam. My daughter contacted Publishers Clearing House and they notified her it was a scam. I am reporting this due to the fact that they got my personal information like, full name, address, email, password and etc. The other reason for me to contact you on this is because the friend that I thought was a new account from is from the xxxx Cancer Group and tried to scam me and I am afraid that other Cancer Group members may fail victim to this scam, where money is already scares. the only reason why stopped what I was doing was because my daughter caught it before it was to late. Not that I would of given them my bank information like they where wanting, but this is the stuff that they were leading up to. And the supposed friend and this Susan character was doing what my daughter said was tag teaming me. Im wanting you to be aware of this so others dont become victim. and i think it should be notified to the public.

I received a notice postmarked 9-16-16 from Birmingham, AL indicating I won a prize from Publisher's Clearinghouse. The letter had a check attached for $6820.35, said to be enough to cover attorneys and taxes. The check indicated it was from Paymode-x and was drawn on Citizens National Bank, NA at 1 Citizens Dr. Riverside, RI 02915. I was asked to contact an account manager named *** *** before depositing the check. Once I spoke to *** *** I was told to write a check for $6150.00 to cover lawyers fees and deposit it into a Bank of America account xxx2304. The deposit was made on 9-26-16. A week later my bank sent me a letter indicating that the check I received was forged and invalid.
