I checked my voice mail and a call came in stating that they were from publisher's Clearing House and that I had won $2and a half million dollars. All that had to do was to provide them with a Bank Account number so that they could deposit the money into my account. I asked them why they weren't coming out with flowers and balloons anymore and they said that don't do that anymore because of Covid 19. I then told them that I did not believe them and they said that they would be sending me a letter saying that I had won.

Scammer called my mom and said that her deceased husband had won money. She said he had passed 4 years ago. Scammer then said her husband had signed a document indicating if he wasn't able to receive the funds they should go to his wife. Scammer then asked if my mom had a car. She said yes but it wasn't available to her at the moment. He then said she needed to go an open a savings account not attached to any other account she had. She asked if it was a scam and he said no. Said he was in the accounting department and just wanted to get her the money. He then told her once she opened the account to call him (Cody Sanchez) back at 1-516-888-3780 before 1pm the same day to give him the information. Mom called me and I told her not to do anything because they would likely take the money she had put in the savings account and she would be out that.

I got a call from someone named Todd Sooane saying he was from Publishers Clearing House. I was told I had won $4.5 million and a 2023 Mercedes. They asked me for my routing number and the numbers on my bank card. I told them I wasn't comfortable with that. He told me we were on a recorded line so it was fine.

He called and said that I won 10.5 million dollars, a new Mercedes-Benz, and $2,500 a month for life. He told me to go to Walmart to get a Vanilla gift

card and have it activated for $200. They offered to come this afternoon and deliver my prize. He did have my address and my email address. I did not get a Vanilla gift card but did get information about him. He said his name was James Carter and I got his phone number which I put in this report.

His name - Todd Salome

Said I had won $4.5 million with Pub. Clearing House. Gave me Federal Reserve phone # 888-230-6370 and acct #80049763 to show that my money was in escrow. Then said that I would have to pay $47,559.00 in insurance fees, registration fee, and ACH fee. My concern is that he said he got my bank routing number and account number from the IRS (his words). Also my so isl security number. I am watching my account to make sure nothing is removed.

Guy called my mom from 631-651-0892 stating he is from PCH Publisher Clearing House and she was the top winner of $3.5 million Dollars and a 2023 Mercedes Benz C Class 350. He told her he did not want any information other then the bank name she uses and he reassured her of this not being a scam. She was to go down to a Fedex and gave her a confirmation number to print off some documents. I went to Fedex to get documents for my mom and I have attached them. I have tried to call him several times and will not answer but did call me back left no message, when I finally was able to get ahold of him he played very dumb and then blocked my number but every time my mom calls his number he will answer.

Someone from this same number has befriended my MIL and texts and calls her regularly. She thinks he is nice and legit. I am unsure if she has had any financial transactions with him. Says his name is Todd Sloane. I do not think he is Todd Sloane from PCH. I think he is scamming her. How do I prove to her he is scamming her?
