I received a call on my home phone today. He gave me his name. Peter King. The caller said I was very lucky. I won a million dollars and a Mercedes from PCH. I asked what is PCH. He gave me the name Peter King. He said we are not asking for any money. He asked me a few questions. Do I want this to be public and go on TV. I played along with the caller. He asked my marital status and if I had credit cards. He asked if I live close to my bank. He said they will mail the check to me today. Caller stated it has to be on a new account. I asked why does it have to be on a new account. He replied it is easier if it on a new account. He instructed me to open a new account with a small amount. He said I could take a taxi to the bank. I said I will see if I can find someone to take me to the bank and I can call you back. He gave me phone number 516-331-2819. When I call back I should ask for office manager Deborah Holland. I understood the entire time it was a scam. I know PCH does not call. I wanted their phone number so I could give it to the ScamPulse.com.

Guy Goes by the name James B, Says he is with Publishers Clearing House and that i won a random raffle for shopping at stores like Walmart, Walgreens, CVS and a couple other ones i dont remember. Said i won second place this month of a prize of over $10,000, a mercedes bins, a washing machine, a dryer, and a blender. BUT before i can have this shipped to me "tomorrow" i have to help him fill out a form and then i would have to pay 1% of the prize money which came out to $250 to even get it. they have been calling me over thenksgiving weekend and since then. i told them i do not trust them and they keep calling back and i havent picked up the phone for them since. they use UNKOWN NUMBER as well so i just dont pick up. when i did pick up thei first couple times they even had me talk to their "Manager" this isnt the first time I've gotten this kind of a call but eh, i only picked it up cause they first used the washington number. outside the country i'm not picking it up.

i did not play their game, no money lost, no information given out. just being harrassed by a company that "doesnt want to waste their time" looked up how people win PCH stuff and you have to enter, which i didnt. so, no harm done aside from needing the DO NOT DISTURB on so they cant wake me up when im sleeping or have my pocket vibrate through out my work day.

he also told me not to tell anyone i won, said his badge number was 33 33 US, and said they work with the FBI, and the IRS and can get my information through bills, and places i shop.
