I answered a phone call that I won a Mega Million prize. My caller ID showed unavailable. Callers name was John Chapeman. I won a Mercedes Benz and $2.5 million. He verified my address. He already had it. He never asked for my Social Security number or birthday. He asked if I was a US citizen and my marital status. I am concerned that I gave this information out. There would also be papers for me to sign. I would need to pay the Federal Government $295.35. I was leery. He wanted me to go to CVS and get a Money Pak scratch card. I don't even know what that is. I was to call him at 929-417-5064 when I put the money on the card. I did not buy the card or send any money. I knew it was a scam when he wanted money.

Mitchell C*****,I spoken with

3 times.

When I spoken too her..

She said I won a raffle in the amount of $1.7million.

All I need too do is go to the post office and pay $400 for cashier check and get a receipt.

Once the $400 is paid.

Then so call UPS will release the prize for $1.7million.

By the way...Wayne W********* and Mitchell C***** work together scamming people.

After I did some research online about Mega Million scammers.

And research Federal Trade Commission.

Do you know!!! Mitchell C*****

Had her nerve to call me again. And then I let her have it.I told her that she and the other scammer Wayne W********* have been reported too the BBB.She hung up!

Consumer was asked to get a private line so that Frank White from Mega Millions could contact them and avoid other scammers from calling them or their line being bugged. Send a picture of the briefcase full of cash.

Sent an overnight package through post office with $450 in cash. Currently working with the post office to return the package in transit.

I've received several calls from a man claiming I won $25 million dollars and a new car but I first need to pay him $8,000 for the winnings. My caller ID indicates he is calling from Kingston, Jamaica.

I received a call from Mega Million that I won over 2 million dollars. After a long process where they received my address, bank numbers, social security number, etc. They told me I just needed to pay $1,699 to receive the money. I am a recent widow and do not have that money. I later told my son and he told me this is a scam.

A gentleman call stating you've won $1 million and a Mercedes Benz.

I answered a call on my home phone. It was a live person. It was a man. He was from Mega Million. He called yesterday and today. Told me I won a bunch of money. I forgot what he said. Millions of dollars. Whatever it was. I did not pay attention. I knew it was a scam. Caller ID showed phone number 720-893-0885. I called it back to check number. It was not a working number. I said I never signed up. Don't call here. He hung up. I did not give him a chance to ask for money.

Woman gave a nice sounding young man $100, then $5000 & then $8000. He claimed they represented many companies and will be flying in from NY & bringing her Mercedes in on a flat bed allowing her to choose the interior and exterior colors of the car. She gave me a lot of personal information over "lots and lots of calls". Mr. Ervell, his manager, ph# is 469-334-4642. Original # Allaen Ledford gave her is 716-791-9869 and he even called and had "his wife", Stacey, talk with her. They had a nice "chat". She said he said he would be changing phone #s because 716-351-2402 had been hacked. He started calling several weeks ago (Nov 17, 2019). Ms. Parish said her "memory isn't good".

A $100 money order was sent from the USPS to Charlene Diak, 122 Cramer St., Tonawanda, NY 14120 on 11/18/19. The next two payments were sent over-night priority express in the Post Office. Charlene Diak also was also sent $5,000 with a Southside cashier's check on 11/18/19. Carolyn Coppola was sent an $8,000 cashier's check to 955 Wall St, Iva, SC 29655 11/20/19 from Lindale, TX (Southside Bank) clearing the bank 11/25/19. Earl Brown is the "manager or something" with Mega Millions, she says and they do this for different sweepstakes. They drew her name from 60 names when she asked how they called her.

He asked how much money she had and she told him and "that's where they drained the money from". She was told "not to tell her husband and to keep it a secret because it would be a big surprise for him". She has another account "Link Financial" and order $$ from her account (it would take 10 days). She told her financial advisor money was for building a garage and and other home activities.

I'm 77 years old. I got a call yesterday from Michael Peterson who said I had won a Mega Million contest. He told me I would win $350 million plus 2.5 million in cash. He said it was a random drawing from a list of people who have a good history of paying their electric bills. He said he could see they had called me before. He said my prayers had been answered, and miracles happen. He said my family could be present at the house and an authorized attorney would take me to the bank with an authorized check. He said let's get the ball rolling, and I could have the check in four hours. He wanted me to talk to his boss. He asked why this money wouldn't be valuable to me. He said "Do you promise to call me back?". He is waiting for me to call him back at 847-236-2029.

Consumer states that they received a call from Mega Million and had won $2,500,000, but had to pay $450 to get it transferred to his bank. He called back and was answered by a Robert Johnson.

I received a call on my home phone. Michael James was the callers name. I do not recall what agency he stated he was with. He said I won $45 million Mega Million Cash Award. Second prize. I received an E mail on my tablet. He had asked if I entered into a contest. I said it has been a while. They wanted about $700 for me to receive the prize. Processing fee. I would not have to pay the money until they came to the house with the camera crew. They would also deliver a Mercedes car for me. The people that would come would go to the bank with me. The bank would want to know where I would get the money from. The only thing I gave them was my E mail. Sweepstakes lottery. I was not sure if this was a scam. I told him I don't have any money. I did not send any money. He read my address. I never gave it to them. My husband told me it is a scam.

Adam Johnson called me and said that he was with Mega Millions and I had won 3.5 million and a Mercedes Benz, But i need to pay $1,300 for shipping and handling and I told him I didn't have it so I asked why they couldn't take it from my winnings. Then he said I could make payments of $500.00 that he would speak to their manager and see if that would be okay. And he would call me everyday to see if I have the money so they can deliver my winnings. I had to pay the fee and then they would show up with armed guards to bring it to me. He asked my name and address and then asked about Aires to my money and asked for my kids names he also asked me for my birth date too. And if I get the money before he contacts me I can contact him at 215-586-7836

I asked how I won it. He said they picked my name and give away 3 different prizes and I was the third they just want to give back to the people.

He also gave me a package number 846AB and said if anyone else called me and gave me ANY other number than that it was Not legit.

I have received many calls from the same people claiming that I have won a lottery and would like for me to pay 99 dollars to receive my package. They have been block from calling my phone yet they call from other numbers with the same offer.

At 10:30 AM this morning Nathan Hunt called to state I had won $400,000; the case no. was G305-506. I was also given ph no. 702-799-9255

(Las Vegas, NV) to verify the sweepstakes. I called the 702 number and there was a recording that stated this is Mega Million, all the operators are busy; leave a detailed message and I just hung up.

- Milwaukee, WI, USA

Indicated I won a 5 million plus ticket from an entry form made out at a Golf Show in West Allis, Wisconsin. Also a briefcase with $5,000 dollars

in one hundred dollar bills. All I need to do is have a American Express money card in the amount of $499.99 ( otice American Express card

is on for $500.00 max) I call them, which they stated they are in Wisconsin, Appleton by name, but they gave me a phone number area code

702 (Las Vegas), and they would then meet me at the bank of my choice with a certified check for the 5 million plus prize. This is to take place

on Tuesday April 3rd, I felt I would give them a number, which has the correct amount of numbers but not from a purchased Money Card.

Then see what happens? His name was Mr. Williams

- Milwaukee, WI, USA

Called to inform me of a winning ticket, I made filled out at a function in Milwaukee (All Canada Show) and they want me to send an account

and ? process number. Which I did...but thinking it might be a scam, I opened an account with nothing in it, plus informed the account carrier

that this shall not be a withdrawal account. It worked except they allowed a $90 withdrawal, but corrected it before it was too late, then a request

for an additional $60. I lost nothing and lucky the account carrier didn't either, as they knew better.

I keep getting daily calls on my office line, asking for my mom, not sure how they have her name and my office line, stating she was cars and money.
