I have been getting multiple calls from someone claiming to work with Publishers Clearing House.  He said I won $18.5 million and that I would get $7,000 a month for the rest of my life.  He said I needed to go out to my local Dollar Store and purchase a prepaid gift card for $299 for taxes.  I told him that I knew that I did not have to pay taxws on a prize like this and he said it was to make sure I wasn't going to spend the money on drugs.  He also said that he would stay on the phone with me the entire time to make sure I has support.  He also asked for my bank acoount numbers so he can deposit the $7,000. The calls are coming from different numbers out of Florida.

I recieved a call from a man claiming to be Dave Sayer with Publishers Clearing House. He said I won $2.7 million and that I had to send a $2,000 check to the IRS for taxes on the prize money. He said he worked in Humble Texas and that he has worked for Publishers Clearing House for 39 years. He said he wasn't going to ask for my banking information now, but he would need it at some point so he can put the money in my account.

Got a call from James Cooper who said he worked with Publishers Clearing House and that I had won $10.5 Million and a 2023 Mercedes. To prove it was legitimate he told me I would be getting an email from Bill Grey with letters from the IRS, Department of the Treasury, and the Better Business Bureau assuring me this was a legitimate prize. One of the letters - from the people claiming to be the IRS - said all of the taxes were handled. The letter from the supposed Better Business Bureau said I had to send a $9,000 certified check to CPA Jacklyn Jenkins with the IRS and she would give me the reciept that I needed to hand over to James Cooper when he delivered the $10.5 million and the car to my home.

She got evry upset with me because I wouldn't give her my bank account information or my social security number. She then connected me to another woman named Linda Joy Olsen and a man named Mark Merchant. Mark said he worked for the Better Business Bureau. He apologized for eevrything Susan said and told me not to worry about her. I sent them $6,000 in the form of a cashiers check to 1342 Princeton Ave Trenton, NJ. 08638.

This is the 3rd attempt by this man to scam me. He must be crazy. Basically he calls and each time uses a different story about what I won . Used different names. One being last name Anderson, David. This last time I told him "you just don't give up".
