About a month ago, I began receiving calls from PCH on my cell phone. Since then, I've received at least fifty. Yesterday, I answered the phone, but there was nobody on the line. Yesterday, I received fifteen calls. Today, it's not even 9am, but I've gotten three calls. I have tried to block the calls but they keep coming.

- Norwalk, CT, USA • Apr 17, 2026

PCH is relentlessly calling my cell phone from different numbers from NY and CT every day. I block and report every number and they call back with a new number. I am being harassed. I answered once, when the calls first started. A woman answered and she said she was with some insurance company. I requested that PCH never call me again, she said okay, and the calls have gotten worse. I have blocked and reported over 50 numbers from them.

I got a call from a recorded female voice that gave me a prize number and phone number to contact.I called the number and spoke with a middle easyern man .I stopped him right in his tracks and asked him to give me some kind of proof then he told me to wait for something in the mail .

They called saying i won a 2023 Mercedes and 2 billion dollars from publishers clearing house and needs a date for delivery. I simply asked them why would publishers clearing house be handing 2 billion dollars to the bbb. Then asked them if they even know my name. They then hung up and attempted to call again. I didn't answer.

- Holland, OH, USA

Stated with undetermined accent that I had won the grand prize and Mercedes and wanted to know if I was home to collect the prize. I said wow and promptly hung up. This phone number is local Perrysburg, Ohio. 567 331 7293.

Call received from “PCH” prize patrol person named Mark, claiming I won a random drawing from Spin the Wheel. He stated that he can see that I have been a PCH participant in the past off and on for about 10 years, which was correct. Supposedly, I “won” 3.5mil, BUT he/they required I pay $8500 upfront-Really Mark!! He had another phone # for me to call to confirm the deposit of funds being held at BoA. 516-871-2299. Not sure if these numbers work anymore.

Thank you
