They called today informing my mother that she had won 1.5 million and 5,000 a month for life.It was a Megamillions lottery ticket that was unclaimed.They then requested we go to Kroger to send them 199.00 dollars for a claim ticket.They claim they were recoreded by the Federal trad commision. I am under the impression that a lottery will not ask for money.They claimed we would get said money back.They also claimed they could send someone to our home after we give them money.They claim they have someone that will go with you to the bank.

They called me from a number that showed Jamaica on the caller id. They informed me that I had won $950,000 because I had used a credit card which entered me in the contest. They said I would have to call them back. I never did and they called again the next day. This time is was a lady, once again with a Jamaican accent, and she said I had won $9.5 million and I would need to pay the taxes and fees to receive the check. She said If I didn't pay it they would give it to a charity. I told them that was fine. Once again they called me today and said it was $950,000 and that I would need to pay $800 for a stamp of government approval and a stamp of ownership and told me to call him back at this number 702-789-1619. I told him I didn't have any money and my credit cards were maxed out. He asked me what my cash advance limit was on my card and that they could pay it off so that I could get a cash advance out. He wanted to call my credit card company and then call him back. He eventually called back and said so I guess you are not interested. I said no not if I have to pay to get the money. He then hung up.

In June 2016 this scam called my mother telling her she won $450,000. She paid insurance money of $600 in August 2016. They claim the award would expire on 08-26-16. She did not receive the money I called them and they said we needed to pay for storage, but I don't remember this amount, I think it was around $800. On 09-23-16 I paid another $800 to have this money switched to my name. All this money was wire transferred to them. After i paid this amount they said they would deliver the prize that day between the hours of 9AM and 11AM on 09-24-16. I have been talking to Frank Miller who originally told us we needed to pay $2500 and they would get us a sponsor. The insurance money went to a person named Betty who lives in New York.

The ID number, security code is GOV0777.

David Moore called me saying I had won 5.5 million dollars and a new Mercedes. I told him I would not pay any up front money to collect the prize. He called back and said he found a sponsor who would provide 418,000.00 for the registration fee. He asked me to open a new savings account so they could transfer the $18,000.00 to my new account. I also told him that I had not bought a Megamillions lottery ticket. He said the was bought for me by Walmart pharmacy as part of a promotion. For some reason the registration is necessary before they can deliver the prize in person somewhat like Publishers Clearing House does. He also mentioned the IRS needing the registration to ensure that taxes would be paid.

This 90 year old woman was called by a person named "Frank" from phone number (185) 515-0459 - a non working number, and told she had won a new car and millions of dollars which they wished to bring to her home today. They would be bringing champagne, etc. to celebrate her win. The lottery she had "won" was supposedly the MegaMillions - for which she never purchased a lottery ticket.

- Nobleboro, ME, USA

I received a call from a Rep. from *** ** ***. They told me that I had won 2 million from Mega Millions Sweepstakes.

Their equipment was hacked last month and that is why it wasn't sent to you. They are trying to deposit it into my account today. But before they can do that they need me to send them 2500.00 to process it. He told me to call a *** *** * *** to get the details. I called him and he said it was actually for 2.5 million. Told him I wasn't interested and ended the call.

Received a call a while ago saying won $1 million dollars.  Had to send "insurance" money.  they keep calling and wanting more money.

person telephoned my residence informing me that a member of our family has won 2.5 million dollars by shopping at Walmart or Kmart using a credit card asked for home address when we requested a certified letter stating the same they also said 99% of taxes have been paid ? person calling stated that his name is James King and was calling from the state of Nevada

I checked the website by google and went to the megamillions to check my numbers and they said I had won $3,500. I went to verify to this winning with the lottery commission and was told it was a scam and to report it to BBB.

They called me saying they were from Las Vegas and my name and number had been pulled and I was the lucky winner of seven million dollars. I asked what casino and they said mega millions. They then told me that U.P.S. would show up tomorrow afternoon. I asked what it was I had to do and they told me I would have to pay courier charges of 200.00. I said no thanks and hung up.

Tom Hendix from Mega Millions called consumer. Consumer's son spoke with Tom and was told winnings totaled $1.5 million. Tom would need $299 sent by check to claim winning. No address was given to send the check to.

- Watertown, WI, USA

called my cell and told me I won 3.5 million dollars and a Mercedes bends car in a raffle. Never asked my name or any other information to confirm who I was. Asked if I wanted my prizes delivered today. Said I needed to send them a Walmart store to store transfer or western union $499.00. I told him to text me the information since I was having trouble understanding him. (took him an hour to get the text sent to me. :) ) gave me 2 code numbers to claim my prize. Assume they were made up at the time. 047794 and 287645701. Gave me his name or a name of Mike Anderson with phone # 206.312.8147. The callerid number was 239.400.0550 (FL USA). I was able to call him back on that number. Since he couldn't get the text to go thru he used a different phone that numbers callerid was 876.826.7788. Where I was to send the $499.00 money order to was Janice Bantin 380 east 55 street Brooklyn ny 11203. (he is going to call me back tomorrow to make sure I sent the money order around noon. 3/30)

I was contacted by the Financial Officer of MegaMillions, who told me that I was the first place winner. The prize was $35 million and a luxury automobile. The phone number the call came from was : 1-234-386-2030; Waynesburg, OH The name of this person was given as Davidson Goldberg. When I asked for more information, he stated that a coupon had been submitted into a drawing. I do not remember filling out any type of coupon. I then asked for a web site and I was transferred to another individual - Victoria Simmons who gave me the website address: www.megamillions.com. I did not check the website out as I was afraid they might be able to capture information off of my computer despite me having a firewall and anti-virus software. I did not stay on the phone long enough to hear the full pitch after I received the website address; so I do not know if I was going to be required to send them any money.

The phone came around 8ish on Tuesday evening March 15th. The man on the phone told my husband he had won a 2016 Mercedes Benz with 5 years of free insurance plus 5 1/2 millions dollars. I had my husband hand me the phone so I could talk to the man. The man then told me his name was David Washington from MegaMillions his number was 1-208-473-2539 or 1-873-378-6910. His badge number was 1191. He asked if we wanted to be on television or keep it private. Then asked if we had a bank account or credit card to deposit the money in, I said NO.He told me that I needed to go to Pioneer Credit Union on Addison Ave here in Twin Falls,Id and open a account, then call him back at the 873 number once we had the account opened. I called the Twin Falls Police, then call the ScamPulse.com the next day and filed this report. The person tried to call back on Wednesday morning but I did not answer. The call was from Jamaica which was a red flag for me.

- San Marcos, TX, USA

Received a phone call from a John Mason that I had won millions, and they requested $195 via check to be sent to someone else in Redding. Did not want cashiers check, or money wired. The caller requested personal check.

- Bridgeton, MO, USA

Mega Millions, Mid Eastern accent named John Marshall, his phone 646-502-9019 NY, said I was to be contacted by Bank of America Bruce Thompson phone 225-477-4818 (funny this number kept trying to beep- in while I was talking to the first guy) Wanted money to release the money that I had won. I never enter sweepsteaks or buy lottery tickets so I knew this was a scam but I tried to get as much info to report them.

Another clue was Bank of America calling me on a Sunday. He said he was sorry for calling on Sunday even though it was after banking hours. Another clue this was fake.

Another clue, John could not pronounce the name of the street I lived on. He tried to verify it but I would not give him the correct pronounciation of my street because any American would know how to pronounce it.

I am not out any money. Did not fall for this.

- Harrison, AR, USA

Received a call from a David Washington from Mega Millions clearance dept., work ID# 3399. Mr. Washington said that I had won $2.5 million and a 2016 Ford F-250. Gave me this number to verify: 1-866-996-5997. Said winning number was 232373. Further into the conversation, when I was questioning if it was a scam, he gave me another name and number to call saying it was the head of the dept. John A. Goldberg 876-383-5981.

Received a phone call from a man named Joel Peterson who said he was from Mega Millions and that I was selected in a raffle. I asked what raffle and he said a group of people who paid their utility bills on time. He told me that I won $7.5 million and a new Mercedes. He gave me a claim number, a pack code no. and a delivery no. He then told me to call a James Bilmoore who said he was in Las Vegas. It looks like both numbers are Jamaican.

I felt this was a scam and played along until he told me to have $1850.00 on hand. also a liquidation fee of $25,000.00 for conversion from US to Canadian funds to be paid after the prize cheque was deposited. At that point I told him not to call me again and hung up. Phone Numbers I was given to call. 1-876-793-8660 and 1-876-315-9336.
