I'm 83 years old. I got a call from John Grohm from Publishers Clearing House. He said I won 1.1 million. He told me not to tell anybody about the call because if I did they would call and get the money instead of me. He wanted to deliver it to my house. He wanted my bank account number. He told me to go to the bank and open an account and put in $25. He gave me a number to call to verify the prize, 888-973-3751. A woman answered "Wells Fargo". She confirmed I had won PCH. I gave them nothing.

I got a call from Charles King, Federal Consumer's Office, 202-470-4326. He said I won a prize from Publisher's Clearing House. He gave me a number to call 702-936-6707 for more information. He said he was with Holiday Sweeps. He wanted $7,500 to get the prize money. It was a registration fee because the money was coming from Nevada. He told me to call John Moretti at 855-331-2639. He asked if I wanted to stay off television. I said yes. He asked if I was married. He said if we couldn't afford the $7500, he could try to get a loan for us. He wanted PII for the registration. We did not give him any PII.

My 75 year old father received a call yesterday from a man who said he was from Publisher's Clearing House. He told him he had won $2.5 million. He had to pay the IRS 1% or $925 in cash. He gave him a confirmation code. He told him to call 516-499-5512. My father called and spoke to Andy Goldberg, who had an accent. They have called back.

In October of 2018, I just got a email from [email protected] telling me that I need to reply back to [email protected] by email in order for myself to win a horrible fake Publishers Clearing House Prize Patrol visit in person as soon as possible when unfortunately, it never happen at all because, instead, I was using those horrible bad languages in order for myself to win a horrible fake Publishers Clearing House Prize Patrol visit in person as soon as possible when unfortunately, again, it never happen at all either because the real Publishers Clearing House along with a real Publishers Clearing House attorney general was so angry and upset at me on Tuesday, November 6th, 2018 which was at the time.

I received a phone call on Tuesday, October 15th. The caller ID came up as "Publishers' Clearing House". I was not home at the time, and a message was left saying that I had won 4.6 million dollars; a claim number was left. The message also directed me to call the number back with this number so I could claim my prize. The following day I called the number and spoke to someone identifying himself as Robert Davis. Mr. Davis began by asking me some questions about my home phone number- which I confirmed. He then asked if I was married and if my husband was home- which I confirmed that he was. Mr. Davis then proceeded to ask if my husband could confirm that I could "claim" the prize. I placed my husband on the phone - he confirmed our address and said that I could claim the prize. Mr. Davis then asked where I had retired from - I did not recall telling him I was retired. He also asked about my husband's previous employment. Then he informed me that he was going to ask me some questions, so he could complete some forms for the 1040 and 1099 forms that would be needed when I claimed my prize. I asked why ths paperwork could not be completed after I received my money. He began to say things like I did not want to miss out on my 4.6 million dollar prize. I responded that I would not be giving him any confidential information like my SSN. The line then went dead. Now, I am going to have to monitor all of my accounts just to make sure that no one is messing with my identity.

Mike Nelson identified himself as an agent with Publisher's Clearing House. He said I was a second place winner of $6.5 million plus $2500 week for life. The call came in at 10:46 CST on 10-16-2019. He stated the prize ticket # as 64666001164 with prize ID code 872078515 and a prize confirmation code 020586. He started recording me and admitted recording when I asked. It seemed he wanted me to repeat all the numbers. When I asked for the phone number to Publisher's Clearing House he hung up.

I was contacted by phone that I had won a publisher clearing house sweepstake prize of 9.5 million dollars, $5000.00 a week for life, and a 2019 car with 1-year state farm insurance. They instructed me to go to Walmart to receive a money gram for $5000.00 payable to me as soon as I paid a $250.00 processing fee. This caller made this sound very believable and went to great lengths to insure me this was not a scam and he was not asking for any personal information. I got leary once they wanted me to go to Walmart.

I just emailed to a Publishers Clearing House Agent recently to let a Publishers Clearing House Agent know that I got scammed by fake Publishers Clearing House for the first time after I received a fake winner confirmation in the mail telling me that I'm a $1,000,000.00 winner with developmental disabilities for the first time 13 years ago.

I received multiple calls starting yesterday from a company claiming to be from publishers clearing house. They gave me a code 000157YB and told me I that I needed to call Mr Albert Johnson at 1-876-416-8541 they informed me I was the PCH grand prize winner of $6.5 million, $5K per month for life and a brand new car! What a deal!! They just wanted me to go to Walmart or Walgreens and get a $1k Amazon gift card that I would need to give to them on delivery of all of my prizes. So I told them I felt this was a scam and not interested and wouldn’t go get the gift card. They called countless times trying to convince me it was legitimate and for the $1K gift card they were going to deliver all my prizes from PCH in person to my business So this morning they started calling again. Again I told them I was convinced it was a scam. At this point they told me again it’s all legitimate and all being controlled and phone calls recorded under ScamPulse.com &IRS regulations. So I told him great I’m a ScamPulse.com member so I will call them for confirmation of legitimacy. They hung up instantly and have not called again
