Publishers Clearing House Reports & Reviews – Page 62 (1706)

A man with an accent called from Publishers Clearing House. I had won millions of dollars and a new Mercedes. He asked me to open a new bank account at my current bank and deposit $5. He kept asking if I was 86 years old. I said, "yes". I gave him my address and email address. He said he would send me information about depositing the millions into my new bank account and that he would need my Social Security number at that time. Is this a sham? I haven't seen anything on TV about it.

- Millington, TN, USA

caller told me the paperwork they had mailed to me was sent 3 times to the wrong location. They then had to contact me by phone. They were going to deliver my 2 million dollar price that same day Tuesday 3/21/17. After giving me a reference number and "bar code number" for the check, they advised I would have to provide photo ID and send them a fee of $250. At that point I told the caller I don't send money to win a prize and hung up the phone.

Scammer called from 206-596-0950 saying victim won $7,000 a week for life. All she had to do was buy $400 worth of iTune cards and give scammer the numbers on the back. After Victim paid $400, scammers said victim had to pay another $700 for taxes before they could release the money through Western Union. Victim did not pay this. "James Lee Senior" said he was from Federal Bank at phone # 347-349-1363 and also named was "Steven Jones".

I received a phone call to my cell phone from Publishers Clearing House. Caller stated I won $1.5 million. Wanted me to go to Walmart and get something like a Government tax information release.
