Phone call- caller ID reads Jamaica. Say from Publisher Clearing House. First time- I hung up. 2nd time I said I haven’t played, he said don’t need to, I asked for number to call him back and he hung up. I called number back, he answered Publishing Clearimg House. Sounded like calling room- lots of phone and talking in background. I said quit calling me- he said “I didn’t call you, get off of my phone. “. I hung up.

A man called my boyfriend and said he was with Publishers Clearinghouse and said that I won $5000. He said he would get it through moneygram and they would come to my house and present him with it too. He didn't ask me to send anything except what bank I had. My boyfriend is not all there mentally so i handled the call which the guy didn't like. He kept wanting to talk to my boyfriend since he's been picking up the phone before. Knew it was a scam and told him that but he was very persistent about it not being one. I called the BBB to report it

I received a call today on my home telephone. Calling from consumer clearing house. I do not have the phone number. The call sounded far away. Then they transferred me to another representative. The caller stated I won $500,000. A courier would come August 8 and deliver my check between 9:00 -11:00 A.M. They did not ask me for money. They asked me how much money I had in my savings and checking account combined. They read off several levels. I told them I would not answer the question. I did not send any money.

Won publishers clearing house $200 - prepaid debit card to get the winnings.

I was supposedly notified by publishers clearing house that i was a prize winner and that it would be delivered to me. The prize was 5.5 million dollars and a Mercedes Benz. The prize would be delivered after I made a payment of $375. I called the business bureau to confirm and found out it was a scam.

Called me on my personal cell phone telling me that I won the Publishers House Sweepstakes, 2.5 million, and a brand new Mercedes. Said that they were based in Clarinda Iowa and would bring the money and Mercedes after I money grammed them $485. They wanted me to gram the money to Dayton, Ohio to a Kenric Chambers. Persons on the phone sounded like they had Jamaican accents.

A James Wilson representing Publishers Clearing House Company indicated he would visit with a 4.1 million $ check. But a $2500 check needs to be made out to a Merchant's Bank where it would be held as a one% tax for the IRS. They are in Madison and will visit in about 1-1/2 hour.

I recd a phone call at 12:25 this afternoon and I spoke w/Christy who stated I won 3.5 million dollars but I had to send $800 to Kimberly Daniel at 7821 NE 21st st, Gainesville, FL 32641. Christy told me it wasn't going to be public; it was going to be private. If I did it tomorrow, I would have to FedEx it. I told her I would have to make a few calls and hung up.

I got a call yesterday and 14 more today from a man, David Silvera, w/a foreign accent saying I've won the Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes sponsored by the ScamPulse.com and H & R Block. He said I won 3.7 million and a Chevy Malibu. He said I would need to pay $294 for a government stamp on the check. He asked if I wanted it advertised or kept quiet. He said I wouldn't tell anybody about this till you get your money. He told me to go to Walmart. He said I will be on the phone with you every step of the way, we will do this together. I said I can't believe it. He said well you're getting a lot of negative thoughts from other people. He said the people giving you negative advice are just jealous. He gave me the check number, and said I would get $7000 today. He said David Sayre, Andrew Goldberg and Barbara Gordon from PCH would be at my house with balloons and roses.

Scammers name is James Anderson and he claims to be with Publishers Clearing House. He claims that the person he is calling for has won a prize car and an unspecified amount of millions in prize money. That seems to change with every call. In order for someone to claim prize money, they have to “pay” for the prize money. 

Received a letter from Publishers Clearing House saying I was a second place winner and had won $75,000. They enclosed a check for $4,823.11, and said must be deposited into my account only after speaking to the claims agent. I am suppose to call a Mr. Michael Austin at 877-315-6071. He would then process my prize. After looking at several similar situations on the ScamPulse.com website, I never made the call. The stamp on the envelope was Canada with no return address. The check Total Fina Elf ESPP Shareholder services, Troy, Michigan

It seemed like he was trying to get me to say yes. I did not. I called the Jamaica number back and expected no answer but that same person answered. It has been over half an hour and no call back.

Man called and said he was John Anderson from the Publishing Clearing House, and that I had won 10.5 Million Dollars and a new Navigator Cadillac. Said I needed to send $495 to Atty Lavonne Murphy in Arizona City, Arizona, before 2:30 pm, because Publishing Clearing House will be at my door at that time.
