A man named Mr Dave Sawyer called said he was executive director for publishers clearing house telling me I won $500,000.00 cash and $10,000,000.00 check. He told me I had to pay a 15% state to state clearance fee and I needed to pay the IRS $1500.00 by cashiers check or cash only. He gave me a “claimers” number of (800)494-3187 ext. 39. The man on phone then said to bring a sheet of paper and pen when I got to my bank and to call him when I arrived in the parking lot. He also said they would be arriving at my house On Thursday October 25, 2018 at 3:30pm as long as I paid the interest first.

I received a private Face book message from a friend telling me she was contacted by text for a Monetary grant donated to random selected Face book active users by Publishers Clearing House and Mega Millions Association to help people financially. Said it was an ongoing program. Said she had several amounts to select from, that it all depended on how much she could send them for taxes handling fee. Said she sent them $2,000 & received $100,000 in cash (said she asked for cash) by UPS withing 24 hrs. Said my name was on the list she saw when she signed for her money. Told me to text Bryan Kieth @ 812-316-5171 & see if I was still eligible. I finally contacted Publisher Clearinghouse fraud dept & was told my friend's friends list was hacked. I didn't fall for the scam. I tried to talk my friend out of it. Said she spent part of it for her stage 1 throat cancer & put the rest in the bank. Said everything was okay.

I got a call on my cell phone. A guy asked if I had heard of Publishers clearing house. He had an odd way of talking so I hung up. He called back 2 more times but I didn't answer. I didn't give him a chance to tell me what he wanted. When I got home and tried to search the number it appeared to be from Jamaica.

I received a call saying I was a winner with the Publishers Clearing House. They said I had won 2.5 million dollars and a new Chevy Malibu. They said I would have to pay a 1% tax on these and I needed to send them money through Wal-mart. As soon as I hung up with them, they contacted my wife.

today 10-05-2018 I received a call on my cell phone, caller # *** said I had won 5 million dollars and a new car but i needed to leave my house go to post office and get a gold seal, that would be my identification when they delivered my prize. I was to call them when I returned so they could deliver my prizes. The number I am suppose to call is 1-876-817-2384. I thought they would probably come in and rob my home when I left. I pray they will not come anyhow i am home alone and seventy four years old.

I received 3 calls from people claiming to be from Publisher's Clearinghouse-September 9th, September 22nd, and October 4th. The callers were John Church and John Benjamin. They said I won $1.9 million and they were paying $68,000 in income taxes so I just had to pay a $2,800 registration fee. They asked me if I had a checking account and how much was in it. I told them yes and gave them a fake amount that was in it. I've been scammed before so I called the BBB who told me it was a scam and advised me to not send any money.

Called by a perso who said her name was ANDREA Goldberg. I was to call another number and then ask to be transferred to ANDREA. I told her we had tickets to a concert and we’re leaving. That night when we got home and in bed she called twice again. The last time I told here if she called again I would call the police and report it as harassment.

I received a phone call saying I won the Publishing Clearing House sweepstakes. His name was John Henderson and he said his ID was 11220. He said I won 5.2 million dollars. That I would receive 5,000 a month every month for the rest of my life. He said I would also receive a brand new Mercedes Benz. But then he said I just needed to send $299 for tax purposes. That they will deliver today if I go to Walmart and get a check. I told him I have been a police officer for years, and that I will call the ScamPulse.com to report them. He told me they are with the ScamPulse.com and provided me a phone number for the ScamPulse.com (1-876-421-1583). I told him that is not the ScamPulse.com's number, and will still be calling them.

They said I won 5 million dollars, and a car and a bunch of other stuff. However, they requested $499.99 money order or check. Sounds like a scam to me.
