My name is Harold Horn and I received a letter from PCH PO Box 4044 Toronto ON M5W1A4 stating I won $600K and I received a check for $9920 which is from Harry L Murphy Floor Covering. The letter instructs me to call John Carpenter/agent for directions on receiving this prize. I called the ScamPulse.com to report it because I think it was a scam.

They wanted me to take out a post office money order of $600.00 and send it to them so they can send me my prize. I told them I wouldn't do that. They then said they would end me a check to deposit and once I deposit that, they will give me my winnings.

I call the number asked for Scott Mason. He asked how long I have been entering PCH sweepstakes. I replied for a few years. He said I had won 2.8 million dollars and all I had to do was to register my prize by paying $2500.00.

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.

Claiming to be the legal representative for Publishers Clearing House. Asked for homeowner by name - told her she was a 2nd place winner. Anytime homeowner asked question they would hang up. Called back three times. Verified home address - said they were going to come to her house at a certain time on a certain date.

The scammer evidently hacked my friend's Facebook account and sent me a fake FB message, which originally I thought was from her. The message said she had won a $150,000 prize from Publisher Clearing House and she saw my name of the list of winners too. My friend is 82 and is in the hospital. I thought she was the target of a scam, and tried by FB messenging back and forth with her, to convince her not to claim the $150,000. Then it dawned on me that I really was the target, that this message was not from my friend in the hospital at all, and that someone had hacked into her FB account. Fortunately I did not take the bait and try to claim "my prize" on the "winner's list." I took four screen-shots, documenting the fake FB messenger conversation. I will try attaching them here. (Only one would attach, so I chose the one with the phone number supplied for texting.) I have no doubt that if I had texted the number provided, they would have tried to extract money from me for "claiming" my supposed "prize" on the "winner's list."
