They said that I won 8 million and a new mercedes but I would have to call the number listed to verify my information and pay whatever taxes were due and after they had my information someone would deliver the car and 25,000 to me. I never called them back with any information.

Mary Sides, (662-340-5543) badge #129775MS was calling from PCH and said I won 5.5 million dollars, a bonus of $5,000 a month for 2 years and a 2025 Mercedes-Benz. She gave me claim and package code numbers. I then spoke wih Dave Sayer, he emailed. me a copy of his NYS driver license and PCH ID card. He then gave me a confirmation code; asked if I wanted public, e.g. televised display or private. The reps would be at my house within 2 hours. After I refused to give banking and credit card info; Mary set me up with a company bank account at Auburn Bank. The account would be in my name and I should pay off my credit card. I called Auburn Bank to verify the account. Scam - too many numbers for the account and wrong routing number. I called Mary Sides back and relayed this info; she said I called the wrong branch and she would get back to me with the local number. Needless to say, I don't expect to receive a call from her or Dave Sayer (570 390-2740). I have made purchases from PCH for years and know or thought I knew about sweepstakes where people win big. This is a scam where you have to be vigilant.

His name from the company was Eddy Rogers,and the person from the Michigan office I call from the number Rodgers gave me, 989-558-8903. His name was Andrew Goldberg ,They wanted me to purchase a confirmation card for $500 called a money pack scratch card. I won 10 million, $5000 a week for life, and a white danoli truck, they never asked my name or address or confirmed a email. I told them I had no money to do that and he said call me back when you can get the funds for the card supposedly the card is so when they get here with my truck and my first payment that cards to verify that it was me. Since when did having a driver's license not work as identification instead of a $500 prepaid card hmmm I was texted pics of my prize and his badge along with an employee card that has maryann McCollum name on it.

In the phone call I was told to send $3000.00 to PCHOFFICIALSERVICE @mail.com. in order to verify postal service protection for the coming check to prove who I was. I refused to provide that type of identity. He asked if my bank was close to my home. I said yes. This made me think he could check with the bank somehow and still access my account at bank, thinking he could locate local banks in my area, use my name and begin a fraud. I called bank, and they said he could not get that information. Still suspicious, I decided to report it to you...as a fraud..... what do YOU think?

Company claimed I won a sweepstakes and wanted me to mail money to receive payment from them. They managed to obtain my mailing address from both of my properties and attempted to persuade me by sending gifts and telling me to be home for their arrival. They have sent me two checks wanting me to add them to my banking account. I contacted publishers clearing house and they had no recollection of me winning anything.

Told my 86 year old mom that he was from Publisher's Clearinghouse and went into details about her "winnings". After 3 phone conversations with that man, then a lady called and pretended to be from my mothers bank fraud department and had her open her bank account online. Then she tried to trick my mom again by having my mom try to speak her info to a recording device on the scammers side of the phone call. Two weeks later the same guy calls back to try again. Then three weeks later a completely different man called with the same Publisher's Clearinghouse scam.
