My phone rang and the person identified themselves as Larry Jackson and said he was with the Better Business Bureau. He was contacting me for publishers clearinghouse to find out why I was not claiming my prize. He was well spoken did not sound like a foreigner at all. I told him I did not believe him he said he was in charge of finding out if I even knew I had won. I told him I wanted to speak to his supervisor and he said he was in charge of me. I told him no he’s not I am in charge of myself and he was a liar and I hung up. I gave you the phone number that showed up on my caller ID.

This individual started off with this.

"Good Evening, My name is John Williams, The online director of the Better Business Bureau.. ScamPulse.com in collaboration with face book compensation imposed by the United State Government. The Cash Funding program as over 70 billion USD available for Funding for the world lucky winners. I Would like to notify you that you have been chosen by the board of Directors/Trustees as one of the final recipients of a cash compensation claim. Are You Ready To Proceed ?"

I happen to live in Australia where we don't have the BBB.

Unfortunately your drop down menus only allow for American locations.

He is threatening to send the Bureaus lawyer after me who goes by the name of Frederick wallace smith.

The phone number provided belongs to a totally different person .

Does any such compensation program actually exist?

He called me on my telephone, he referred to something about Wells Fargo, Wells Fargo Call, and I wrote down he said he was with Better Business Bureau. His name is Jason Edwards. His employer ID he gave is CRM1843 and provided two phone numbers. He said he wants to put security onto any new bank accounts, asked me for the name of any new bank accounts and I didn't provide that information because I didn't know who he was. He wanted to know what my new bank accounts were and I didn't provide that information.

I received another scam call using the ScamPulse.com name. I reported this the other day. Caller was Brian Davis. Said he works for the BBB. I got their phone number this time. Phone number 770-413-2186 in my caller ID. He was calling to clear my credit card debt. Wanted to go over my Discover card. I did not listen to him or give information. I think this is the same guy.

Male called me and told me that he was from the ScamPulse.com and said that publishers clearing house was trying to get ahold of me for a check I won for shopping at a store and that he needed my address. When I questioned him about being from the ScamPulse.com and why the ScamPulse.com would be concerned with a publishers clearing house "winner" he said that my "check" would be donated to charity. I told him that's fine because this is obviously a scam

We have been receiving texts from someone claiming to be the ScamPulse.com sending us leads. They say they have a lead for our business and to click a link to receive more information. We contacted the ScamPulse.com and they verified that it is not from them.

I received a call from the number listed above. I was told I won a 2nd place prize of $45K that the ScamPulse.com conducts every 10 years and I won this prize because I shopped at Walmart. They wanted to confirm my account number to transfer the money. They wanted to confirm a long closed checking account and a very old address. I did not provide any current information. They also said I received a package or letter which might be possible since they had an old address on file. I found it interesting they are actually using the Better Business Bureau name in their scam.

Caller said his name was Brook Davis, from the Better Business Bureau; he claimed I had won $200K, and not to contact anyone.

I know this is a fraud. I was able to avoid the scam, and I am reporting it in hopes that no one will fall for it.

At the beginning of March 2020, my mother, who is 80 years old, got a call from a person stating their name was Eric Gomes and that he was a junior accountant at the Better Business Bureau. He said he worked in Washington DC. He told her that she had been scammed by people stating they can fix her hacked computer and that they had been arrested. My mother had given money to the computer scammers over a two month time period ($65,000) from December 2019 to January 2020, and he said that he could help her get her money back but would need her some money sent in order to work on her claim. She had sent several thousands of dollars sent in cash to the scammers saying they would fix her computer. Eric said he would help her get that money back and that the scammers were arrested. She understood she was scammed initially, but didn't understand that Eric was a scammer, too. She didn't understand that the Better Business Bureau didn't take or give money. She trusted him to help her.

“Eric” continued to call her almost every day. Some were “social calls” to build trust, and said he was helping her get that money back, told her to not tell anyone about it because it could hurt the case, told her at least once that he could lose his job if she didn’t send money to help him work on her claim. She asked once if she could speak with his boss and he said his boss was Matthew Hayden and he was a Senior Accountant with the Better Business Bureau. Matthew said that Eric was 'under him' at the Bureau. Eric had an accent. Both spoke to her at times to reassure her they were working on her refund. Eric continued to ask for more money but also befriended her asking about her family, telling about his and generally “chatting”. He was a master manipulator. He told her that he had some checks that were waiting for her in Moscow, Idaho with his contact there. Many times, he said if she didn't send more money, the checks for her “refund” would be cancelled. She sent in total: $276,000 for them to help her get this "scam" (computer scam) money back. Money was sent in cash to various locations around the US. On one occasion, she wired money to Thailand from her credit union account. Twice in July, 2020, "Eric" arranged a money pick up at her house and a person named "Alex" was going to pick up the money. "Alex" came on two occasions, once in a cab and once in what he said was a rental car. He came into her house and counted the money and then left. She had the money in cash ready for him as Eric instructed her. As of 8/9, my mother told me of the scam and she has been ignoring any calls and letting her land line go to voice mail. We have her in a safe place while involving the police detectives in investigating.
