They wanted me to go to Rite Aid to purchase a Greendot money pack card for 299.00 dollars and call them at 1 228 901 5549 when I get back... They promised me I won their monthly sweepstakes of 1.8 million dollars and a new Mercedes Benz. Mr. Dave Sayer was the man to send the greenest card to.

A man called my elderly mother twice, claiming to be the President of Publishers Clearing House. He had the President's name correct. He told my mother that she had won $5000.00 a week for life. He then told my mother that she needed to supply her bank information and social security number, and to pay a fee of $380.00

A phone call came to my parents house in **, - claiming they were Publishers Clearing House and that my elderly parents had won $3.5 million dollars. They left a voice message and gave their phone number as ** and said to ask for James at ext 1 and my parent's claim number for their money was **.

We called them back but they didn't answer. We called them because we knew it was a SCAM but wanted to see what type of game they were playing. The scammers called my parent's house back within 5 minutes.

It was a man saying he was from Publishers Clearing House and wanted to know if we wanted to collect our prize money of $3.5 million. He needed a 1099 form (taxes) and needed to know my parent's BANK. When I gave him a BS answer - he hung up on me. We recorded the phone conversation and we also have a recording of the phone scam voicemail.

*****my parents did NOT fall for this SCAM - however, there will be someone who does.

*****IMPORTANT - Do NOT ever give anyone your bank account number or any tax information. These scammers are TARGETING elderly people and wanting their bank account information.

I received a message on my cell phone from Publishers Clearing House. I won about $5.7 million. I called the phone number back. 917-999-5692. They wanted $3000 upfront before the money could be released and for taxes. He asked where I banked. I gave the name of my bank but not my account number. I also gave my email address. They also sent me an email. I realize it was a scam scam at first.. I did not send any money. I should not have to send any money if I won a prize.

Received a call from a scammer, first taking me for $300 on a vanilla giftcard, then got me for another $500 giftcard. They told me that Oprah Winfrey and Paul Harvey. They told me that they were going to bring me the money to make sure that I know how to take care of the money. They tried asking me for another $300 for the tax on the "winnings".

 

I even took money out from my insurance totaling up to $1,700. He told me his name was John Golen, Bill Sears.

They called me and told me that I had won Publisher's Clearing House prizes. They gave me a confirmation number of A691F82D that I took to Office Depot to have printed. They cost me $.84. I knew it was a scam when I saw that they wanted me to pay to receive my winnings. I attached the documents as evidence.

Scammer called my elderly father and said he had WON Publisher Clearinghouse Sweepstakes but needed to go to his local Wal Mart or Walgreens in order to receive the official documents. He would need to purchase a $500 “Golden Card” and that he would be out no money because it would be taken out of his winnings...thank goodness my dad realized it was a scam AFTER calling PCH himself to verify!

I got a call on the 21st from James Peterson from Publisher's Clearing House. He said I had won a Mercedes Benz and $2.5 million. He said I needed to pay $5000 which is 1% of the taxes. They kept calling. I talked to a woman who told me she would give me a receipt for the money, and it would be refundable. They told me it was top secret and to keep it confidential. They wouldn't talk to my wife, they only wanted to talk to me. I wouldn't listen to my wife, so she called the Pastor. I wouldn't listen to my pastor or his wife. I went to the bank, but it was closed. I went to the police station. I showed them the emails because they looked so real. They said the email wasn't from Publisher's Clearing House, so I erased their emails. I've been scammed before, but just little amounts, this would have been the biggest amount they got me for. My wife got scammed out of a hundred dollars ordering some scooter online.
