Told me I had won a Microsoft laptop and only had to pay $7.95 shipping charges and I got suspicious and researched the company here and saw that it was a scam.

Received a direct mailer in my mailbox about a cash giveaway sweepstakes. Involved scratching off to reveal matching numbers to win cash. It said that I won $1,000. I called the dealership to confirm and they said I had. I called the company that makes the mailers (AutoMail1) and spoke with the owner Kent, who said that it was legitimate and I would be getting paid. When I arrived at the dealership, they took my personal information, and then revealed that I had not in fact won $1,000 and only a single $2 scratch off ticket. The lobby was full of elderly who were also there for that reason. The dealership representative only brought me over to reveal my prize after he had tried to sell me a car. The website they had provided stated that I had in fact won $1,000 when I entered my confirmation code on the mailer. The rules on the bottom of the mailer did not state anything about the matching numbers not actually being the price you would win. I believe they have no intention of paying anybody out and there are no winning numbers, hence why I believe this is a predatory business practice

I was contacted by Julie Leach that stated I was the lucky winner of $500,000.00. She asked for my cash app. I gave it to her. Next she needed me to go to Instagram for further instructions. When I went to Instagram, I was told I had to pay an activation fee. I paid the fee of $105 but never received any money.

Some hacker out of the blue impersonated Julie Leach and tried to friend request me on FB. I do not know this woman, and a true lottery winner will not donate their winnings to just anyone, except perhaps a charity of their choice. I reported the scammer to FB. Results of the final report are pending.

Was supposedly going to send me money. Wanted me to send her my full name, address, phone number,& if I wanted cash or a cheque. The spelling of the word check sent my spidey senses over the edge of the cliff I was already on thinking it was a scam. So I googled her name & found it was a scam for sure. I asked where she was located instead & she blocked me. Just as I reported & blocked her on Twitter.

They asked me to send them 70,000 usd and I would be blessed. They kept mentionioning God and blessings. They clearly had broken Indian/English grammar. They were very persistent even after I repeatedly told them they were a scammer. They asked for full name, email, phone and address.

I've been receiving calls for the past three days, from different people, saying they work for Clearing House Sweepstakes Headquarters. A woman called today, she has an accent, it's hard for me to understand her. She wants me to make out a check for $500 to G**** W******* and put it in an envelope and mail it to *** * ***** **, Allen OK 74825. She said someone would be here within an hour of my having put the check in the mailbox to take it out of the mailbox and present me with 2 checks: $50 thousand and $2.5 million. I have to send the check to prove I have a bank account and to pay the IRS.

A customer of our financial institution brought in a check payable to herself from Clear Lake Capital Financial Services the was drawn on JPMorgan Chase Bank in Batton Rouge, La and the business being located in New Orleans, La, in the amount of $3,700.00. I am the Asst. BSA Officer for our financial institution and check the Reg CC report every morning to make sure if any holds done are correct. When I printed a copy of this check our teller put on hold the check appeared to be a little off. I called the teller to inquire if the customer may have mentioned how she came to be in possession of this check. The customer stated she was expecting an insurance check and thought maybe this check was it. The customer is an older lady and the teller informed her she would have to put the funds of the check on hold according to our Reg CC policy. Our customer made no objection. So when I came upon the check the next morning while checking the holds that were placed the previous days, I googled any information about this company and its address. I came upon a scam tracker report from your website stating the exact same check had been reported. I immediately changed the hold to extend the hold for 7 days and hold the entire amount for the funds of the check and sure enough the check was returned the next day with the funds still being on hold. Thank goodness our customer didn't lose any money. Upon further investigation, it turns out there is an individual using Facebook and getting people to sign up to receive these checks in return for being a shopper. We tried contacting the customer to inform her of the situation but were unable to reach her by phone. We have alerted the tellers to be on the lookout for any similar checks.

I was playing Publishers Clearinghouse games - Golden Aztec - to enter to win and I won $27,000. They told me to send it over to my PayPal or CashApp account and nothing has happened. I spent a long time playing the game. They got my account number to PayPal but no response from them. Then I decided to call Better Business Bureau to see if this was legitimate and it was a scam.
