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

Received a call from Publishers Clearing House. The gentleman told me that I had won the Publishers Clearing House and they were going to come to my home and deliver my new car and prize money. He asked me how old I was, where I banked at and if I had any stocks. He told me I would need to send him $4,500. I told him didn't have that much money and he asked me how much I could send. I told him that I am not paying anything and said if I needed to pay I could pay it out of my winnings. He told me I couldn't do that. I told him I thought this was a scam. I called the Publishers Clearing House and they confirmed that this is a scam.

The scary part was that he knew my full name and address.

I've been getting calls for three days from John Green from Jamaica. He said: "Congratulations, you've won Publishers Clearing House, $7000 a week for life and a Mercedes Benz". He kept telling me he's a minister and ministers don't lie. He said I had been blessed. He said God Blesses and congratulations several times. He's coming this afternoon from Cleveland to give me my winnings. Just this morning he said I needed to get a money order for $499 to pay the shipping and handling. He asked if I was married, and he's been talking to my husband as well. He asked if I wanted it publicized or kept confidential. I told him I wanted something in writing from PCH.

I got a call this morning from Publishers Clearinghouse notifying me I had won 2.5 million and a Mercedes Benz. He asked What time would I be home because a lady from UPS will be delivering mail to me today about the prize. He said you know who PCH is, well you've won. He had an accent. He said something about not telling anybody until they got there. I told him I would see him at my house at 4:30pm.

I'm 72 years old. I got a text today from Publisher's Clearinghouse. I won 7.5 million and a BMW which is $7000 a week for life. I needed to pay $4988 for state taxes. He sent me a picture of the car, and of himself with an ID card. He said to call 203-864-3445, a foreign guy answered and said "Yes, you've won Publisher's Clearinghouse!". He said he would email me the steps. He said, "This is legitimate. Do you think Publisher's Clearinghouse is a fraud?" They had my address.

I got the call this morning from this number claiming to be Publisher's Clearing House. They claimed I won 2.5 millions dollars, $10,000 cash, and 2019 Mercedes-Benz in pearl white. They said it came with a year of gas and a year of insurance covered by Geico. They asked if I was a U.S. citizen, how old I was, and my marital status. They said I needed to send $299 and that they were a hour and a half way from my location with the certified check for the 2.5 million dollars.
