We recieved a call telling us we had won the monthly sweepstakes from PCH,they provided a phone number to call to get the facts. We called the number (607)300-4417. We had to leavea message. They called us back and told us all the facts;ie 2.5 million dollars, a 2022 Mercedes G class SUV; and $750,00.00 per month. They sent us a packet that included a page from the BBB, signed by Henry Cameron verifying the win from PCH for 2.5 million dollars. All we needed to do was pay $1850.00 to show good intensions. When we told them we didn't have $1850.00, they told us they would accept $300.00 which we did have. They asked us to get a cash card, MoneyPak Card. I gave them the number from the card to start the process for delivering the winning monies. The price patrol was on the way to deliver the prizes. Then the prize marshal told them we needed to pay the state prize tax, another $350.00. We told them that wasn't going to happen, the gentleman hung up. We were told that the funds we paid would be returned as part of the prize so we wouldn't be paying anything. They haved called back two times the first time we just hung up. The second time I talked to them the call was to give us another chance to fulfill the "requiements" to get the prize, yes pay the $350.00 prize tax!

Automated phone call saying that they were trying to reach my mother. I returned the call because my mother is now deceased. The number that was left in order to retuen the call was someone named David Peterson who claimed to be an attorney. After speaking with him, he said that he didn't know how much my mother had won, it was after hours and a holiday, and he would send the information because as her beneficiary, I could receive her prize. I did offer an email address so that I could receive the supposed information he claimed had been sent to my mother via mail. I received the letter and of course the prize was 1.2 million and a car. All I had to do was to send $1800 for tax purposes.

I just received a call on my cell phone claiming to be from Publishers Clearing House. It showed restricted call. That is a red flag. There was no phone number in the caller ID. He said this is Publishers Clearing calling to tell you have won money. I told him to stop. You would notify me by certified mail. He said didn't you receive the checks. I said no. He said there are two certified checks in Toledo OH at Wells Fargo Bank. $10 million a piece. I have had these calls before. He kept saying this is not bogus. I am just letting you know you won. I said this is bogus. I told him to send a certified letter. I told him I had to go. He gave me a phone number to call him back. 740-486-4226. He said he was calling from Columbus OH. Also we have people in your area. that would stop by. In the Sandusky OH area. From what I understand Publishers Clearing House does not call. The call kept breaking up. Could be overseas.

Telephone call from Harvey Specter to inform me of my selection as Publisher Clearing house winner. Harvey Specter (badge #5130) stated that he has been appointed as my personal agent by PCH as I had not responded to either of the two notifications mailed to me. He gave me the physical address of 101 Winners Circle, Jericho, New York 11753, telephone number 917-631-7297.

I was told the identification for the prize package is Batch #EK9638256682, Package ID # 3523-1101-PCH-2100CA. I was told the prize consists of a cashiers check of $950,000. 00 being held in an escrow account at Bank of America, a 2022 Mercedes Benz S-Class, and $5,000.00 per month (to be deposited into a new bank account, that I needed to set up, the second Wednesday of each month) for the remainder of my life (then to be paid monthly to the beneficiary of my choice for the remainder of their life) and a one time payment of $10,000.00. Mr. Specter stated that the confirmation #0023694511FL was assigned by PCH Corp. Headquarters. Also, that an IRS form 1099 would be issued.

I requested copies of the documents to be emailed to me as I had not received anything through the United States Postal Service. Upon receipt of the documents I believe that I became aware of the request for $14,900.00. After doing research on the websites of the Corporations referred to, I became aware that this is a fraudulent scheme.
