I know it’s a scam, because about a year ago I fell for it, up to a point. They conned me out of 2 $100 Visa cards. I don’t remember why they needed them. I had also won the PCH sweepstakes at that time. Even when I quit responding, She kept calling and emailing and her name was Deborah Holland. The same name on the letter I received today!

This time they sent a check for $7,800.45 to assist me with out of pocket expenses. Call my claims agent Jerry Price, for method of payment. Of course, I’m not supposed to discuss this with anyone and keep the letter confidential.

The first time it happened to me, she called me and said I had won a new car plus the PCH sweepstakes. She called so many times, I will never forget the sound of her voice.

He said I won the Publisher Clearing House prize of 18.5 million dollars. He said to set this up I would have to call Bank of America at number 8772969834 to get the account number for the 18.5 million dollars. He also said a team of Clearing House people are coming by the house to congratulate my family and I and would be giving us some roses.
