I was called on Sunday 8/15/2021 by Charlie Goodman, who claimed I had won the Publishers Clearinghouse sweepstakes. I called him back on Monday 8/16/21 for details. He told me I had won $3.7 million to be given to me as a certified check and also $5,000 a week for life. I was told open a bank account and call him back with the routing and account numbers. He gave me a passcode and winning number for verifying my identity. I was told I would not have to pay any taxes. He did not ask for money upfront but did tell me not to tell anyone or speak to any other representatives from Publishers Clearinghouse that may call. He said they would also come to my house to award the prize. He knew my address but I did not give him any other personal information. I called the real Publishers Clearinghouse and was told that this was a scam and that they never call anyone, they just show up at the home.

I received a phone call on my answering machine from Publishers Clearing House Prize Patrol. They gave a claim number. It said to call back with the claim number. I called the number back because I had entered a contest. I called 330-482-8061. A man answered Publishers Clearing House Prize Patrol. He said I won millions of dollars. He said aren't you happy.We will bring the check today. I need to pay a $500 registration fee. I told him I don't have that kind of money. Another man called me back. His name was Goldstein. Phone number 876-863-3060. I will get roses like on television. H said I need to go to Walmart and register by paying $500. He asked if I had a credit card. They will pay it off. I did not give the credit card number. i hung up. When they wanted $500 that turned me off right then. They could deduct that from my winnings.

I received a phone call from Publishers Clearing House. Callers name was Peter Anderson. Their phone number is 520-394-5732. Stated I won $5 million. I needed to go to Walmart and get a Vanilla gift card for $400 and send it back to them. They would arrive at my door with my winnings like they do on television. I did not send any money. This sounded fishy.

I received a phone message claiming to be from Publishers Clearing House saying I won $5 million dollars. A senior citizen, I've haven't entered any sweepstakes in many years and immediately got suspicious. The message instructed me to call back but I suspected the caller just wanted to get my social security number or other personal info. Instead, I called BBB.

We received a call that my husband has won a Publishers Clearing House lottery prize of $3,500,000, plus $7500/month for life and a new Mercedes Benz car. My husband is an avid player of PCH contests so we actually answered the call,. After being told to press "1" for connection to a representative, there was a phone ring but no answer. We hung up, and quickly received a call back from a Mr. John Kelly, Sr. Vice Pres. of PCH. After a long conversation he sent an email with a large attachment. It was 10 pages of "documents" explaining that the ScamPulse.com highly endorsed our award, and congratulated us. It also informed us of fees that would be due to the IRS and the FDIC. In total about $20,000 would be due upon acceptance of the prize. The caller had a strange accent, possibly Middle Eastern. The errors in the alleged documents were what made me suspicious. There were numerous typos and grammatical errors, especially in the supposed letters from the IRS and BBB.

I received a friend request on FaceBook from an old friend and accepted the request. Then, a day after accepting the request, i got a private Facebook message from the same friend, telling me that she won $400,000 from a Publisher's Clearing House sweepstakes, and my name was also on the page. She gave me a number and said to text it, and inquire. My curiosity got the best of me, I called the number but hung up. Then I was texted from that number and was given a webpage to go to. I clicked on it, and indeed my name was on it. But instead of going further, I called that friend, who confirmed that she was hacked on Facebook, and she had not sent me the messages.

I received a phone call from a gentleman claiming to be David Scott with publishers clearinghouse, he told me I had won the 2nd place of PCH, and my prize was 35 cashiers checks totaling 3.5 million dollars. He (David Scott)told me his supervisor Todd, would call me right back with some questions, which were how do I feel?, Am I happy about winning?, Do I want to receive the money publicly or private? Then he (Todd) told me if I told anyone about this phone call I would forfeit my winnings. David Scott called me 7 times from another phone number 876-774-9884, when I did not answer, he called from a restricted phone and left me a message to please answer the phone this is David Scott.I feel everyone should know about this scam, attempting to ruin I perfectly good business by trying to pretend to be PCH.Thank you, respectfully Janice Stokes

An individual called and said he was from the publishers clearing house, and we had won 1/2 million dollars, then he asked all kinds of questions about all our bills and credit cards, how we have done our shopping, did we own our house, our banking company and other questions. Then he told us to not tell anyone about this because they would take advantage of us. He said his name was Michacle Perkins, and they would deliver it on Thursday, July.
