- Hedgesville, WV, USA

Starting March 29 2019 I began getting calls on my cellphone from person identifying as Publisher Clearing house. Accent was thick Carribean. Number 876-858-0880, 876-884-1652, twice from a Private Number, and last night from Unknown number.

First calls, I knew immediately when they identifies as Publishers Clearing house they were scam. I politely asked to take of their call list. person calling from the 876# seemed to comply, but then I started getting calls from a different man from the Private and Unknown Number. He was creepy. After I ask to remove my number he would tell me my voice was nice and he likes hearing my voice. Last night he called and asked what I'm making for his Supper. I searched this site and see it has been happening to many people for a while, and the 876 is from Jamaica. I'm going to go there and find this creep and cut his tongue out, if he keeps calling me.

I told them I don’t want it shipped. I could pick it up. They said I have to show proof of payment first.

I asked why they didn’t show up at my door with my check like they do in the commercials and they said they will. I asked for proof of the award first. They said they would email it to me.

I got a phone message from someone name Scott Mason. He stated he was from Publishers Clearing House (PCH) and that I had won a prize. He stated if I was interested in claiming the prize call 516-415-3622.

The gentleman claimed to be calling from the Publishing Clearing House he stated that his name was Dave Sawyer and that I had won 2.5 million dollars and a new Mercedes Benz and I can select the color that I wanted however I need to pay $750 processing and handling fee and I had to give the receipt to the person that delivered the goods on the next day. He also stated that I need to fill out a form once the person arrive the next day but I had to call him back in order for him to give me the license Merchant Banker's number in order for her to except my required $750 fee. I knew it was a scam so I said I need to report this and I called The Better business Bureau to report it.

Frank Peterson called to say I was a Third Place winner with Publishers Clearing House. They would meet me at my home or at my bank. They would bring a certified check. Two attorneys would be present. there would be a 2.5 million and a Mercedes Benz vehicle. This could be made Public or remain Private. Gave call-back number in case we were cut off. They are approved by the Better Business Bureau. I was to have some sort of ID registration-one day insurance. This was to be obtained at Walgreen or CVS. I would bring an Amazon gift care if the amount of $199.99 and my Driver's License to the bank. They would refund me the $199.99 at that time. Because the party was still on my phone, I went to the neighbor's house. We called Walgreen and they never heard of Identify registration cards. My neighbor checked on-line and PCH never calls and requests money. I tried to recall the number they gave me but could not reach them. And that's my story.

I received a call on my cell phone this morning. I did not catch what the "person's" name was. The voice sounded mechanical. He said that I had won $2.5M and a 2019 Mercedes. He kept asking me questions which I could have answered yes to, like have I ever heard of Publisher's Clearing House. I had heard of another type of scam that takes your yes answer and uses it in identity theft fraud. Finally, I told him that I had not entered his sweepstakes, so I doubted that I had won anything. Then I just hung up on him.
