Publishers Clearing House check was sent by mail from Canada and I was to call Richie Morgan chief financial officer. At 1-902314-3978. And again after depositing. We checked on the fake check with ***** ***** we went to see if it was legit. It was not. I am not sure what this person would have done had we called him back to tell him we deposited it in my acct. We will call him.

I received a letter in the mail 5/2/2026 stating I had won $750,000 from Publishers Clearing House. The letter also included a check for $8702.68. The letter says the check is to help toward paying taxes and processing fees. The letter tells me to keep this strictly confidential until the award has been deposited in my account. It also instructs me to deposit the check in my bank account and then immediately contact claims agent Paul Smurl at 718-239-2239. They state their office number is 518-239-2239

Letter in the mail to elderly person saying he won a no-entry required sweepstakes of $750,000. Recipient was told to contact his claims agent, "Paul Smurl," for method of payment. They said they gave him a check to "assist you with out-of-pocket expenses to enable your payment" (payment towards taxes and processing fees). It says the check can be deposited through ATM or inside a bank branch. The recipient is supposed to contact the agent immediately to start processing the remaining funds. (I read online that if you call, they will ask you to remit the funds from the check and then eventually, the check will be reported as fraud and taken back, so you've paid the money to the scammer and are out the money.) The letter also says to keep the award letter "strictly confidential until your cash prize winnings have been processed and remitted to your designated account." It further threatens that if you don't keep it confidential, you could face "double or false claims, identity theft and impersonation."

He wanted my information for Publishers Clearing House. I didn't give him any. I instead turned it around on him and told him I was with a company that was going to give him money. He willingly gave info I didn't write down. I then told him to not give out personal info on the phone and to stop trying to scam people. He got angry and threatened me. I told him to f off and hung up. He then called back and threatened more.

Scammer said I had won $2,000,000.00 from Publishers Clearing House of Charleston, WV. Said he was GM David Sawyer and he confirmed my address with the one he had. He asked my age, the name of my bank, insisted on the balance on my statement (I refused). He confirmed my name and address with the ones he had. He requested the spelling of my name, and said that I must send $9,800.00+ to the IRS in Larion, VA before I could receive the $2,000,000. I responded that I was not sending any money to anyone. He hung up.

Contacted by Publishers Clearing House stating I had won when I had not received a letter. Would not agree to mail me a letter. Then the IRS called stating that I owed money against my assets because of the money I had won. I have no check or documentation of this.

Got a call from PCH saying I won the lottery from visiting one of the major merchandise stores such as Walmart or Walgreens. They told me that I won $25 million dollars payout and $3,000 weekly every Friday. I said that is a lot of money and I'm not that lucky, so I don't believe this is legitimate. They told me to call the number back and ask for extension 101 for "Sandra Davis" for the claims department. They provided a winning package number #EK5457895651000. They said to call the number and notify them that the delivery driver "Van Walis" is enroute on their way to deliver the check. They also said you got sent a letter notifying you of this win and mentioned a city nearby, but I have never lived there. So my scam radar went up again and decided to search the number after i hung up the phone and found it associated to this site.

My grandpa received a call saying he won $2.5 million and a new car. They would be at his address in 40 minutes. He was to go to Dollar General to purchase a prepaid gift card for $180. The person got very agitated when she was questioned by myself as to how legitimate this was and why she expected an 89 year old to pay that fee in order to "win" something.
