Publishers Clearing House Reports & Reviews – Page 64 (1695)

A man called stating that I won 7.5 million dollars and a luxury car(pearl white Mercedes). The only way I could recieve it was to pay 100-150 dollars for shipping and handling to get them to ship the check through UPS. When I began the question him, he became agitated and upset, and began to use vulgar language towards me. I informed him that I was aware that this may be a scam, but he was persistent in convincing me that he was local(Jackson, MS) and that I was missing out. After he realized I had caller id and he wasn't receiving any funds, he ended the call by telling me to "f** off and s** his ***. For the sake of others, I hope that this [censored] is caught.

I received a call from a man who claims he is from the PUBLISHERS CLEARING HOUSE. He stated that his name is Bill Diamond. His badge# 5264BC. The attorney who's name is Mary Myers is going to come and collect $799. in taxes. Which I need to have today. The taxes are just 1% of the whopping 6.5 Million dollars plus a brand new 2016 Mercedes Benz, convertible no less!!! What a great way to start off my day, and I've only had one cup of coffee!!! Right away I knew it was a SCAM, I have caller ID and it came up Jamaica. Before I answered I thought to myself, "OH WHY NOT, LET'S GET THIS DAY STARTED!!"

I received a call this morning from Publishers Clearing House telling me that I had won $950,000 thru Bank of America and a new car. They told me to send $40 by Western Union and I did that and then they wanted me to send $100 more which I did not do.

I received a call from Publishers Clearing House on my cell phone in December 2016. The phone number on my caller ID 876-289-7993. Said they were from New York. Caller said I won Sweepstakes, Approximately $2.5 million. Caller wanted me to go to Walmart and send a money order. $800 processing fee or taxes. I did not send any money. I am reporting the scam.

- Hillsborough, NH, USA

A Mr. Bob Green called us Sunday evening Feb 12,2017 telling us that because we are US citizens who pay their mortgage and taxes on time have won 4million dollars and a Mercedes Benz,color of your choice. Because of very bad connections, he called back again, told us we needed to call the headquarters of PCH to make arrangements. We called the number and no-one answered. Then at 10:30 p.m. while we were falling asleep he called again, so I dismissed him until the next day. He called Monday afternoon and this time *** spoke with him. ***called the "headquarters" number and spoke with a man who told him we needed to send money...as my husband probed the man with questions and challenged him with facts the amount kept going down. ($1700, $800, $286) The man said to make a Wal-Mart to Wal-Mart transaction to Myrna Palmer of Buffalo,TX. Bill then said we would call back after we spoke with our attorney. We looked info up on-line and found out PCH never does business this way and that over 250 scams were going on in our area. The man called again and *** told him the facts, and the man said of course, the attorney doesn't want you to have the prize....have a nice day. Bob Green had a strange slow way of speaking, my husband says they both sounded foreign...Maybe African. Bob used a term ....are you on board, get on board....expressions seemed unnatural.

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

The caller said he was with the driver for the Publishers Clearing house. He told me that I was a second place winner and he was on my street delivering to the first place winner and will be there shortly. He gave me a number to call, and talk to a person named John Diamond, and was to give him my winner ID number within 10 minutes or I would forfeit my prize. I took the info, said thanks and hung up.

The same person call me back about 1 1/2 hours later to see why I hadn't called, when I told him that I dont do scams he hung up.

When I got home from work and told my wife, she said that she also got a call just moments before my call came in from the same number but never answered.

I have also received a call from John Diamond. He knew my last name but didn’t seem to have any other information.
This is a persistent bunch. They called me over 10 times across 2 days and even exchanged text messages.
I won $17.5 M and a 2024 Mercedes.
He kept calling it “publishers and clearing house” though

Got letter in mail saying person was winner of $600,000 us dollars. Check enclosed is to help with taxes and processing fees. Call 901-877-5371 immediately to speak to claims agent Michael Kings for method of payment. Please keep award letter confidential until your winnings have been processed. See attached for actual letter. I can provide a copy of the actual check also.

I received a call from Publishers Clearing House saying I had won $5,000 per week for life and a new Mercedes. They said I need to go to Walgreens and get a $300 card before they could deliver the prize.

I have gotten several calls from this location the above # in one that a Mr. Carl Hyden gave me but the number on my ID was 876-597-7058. He claims I have won $2.5 Million Dollars and an additional prize of a car, or vacation, or cash to a credit card. He has called several times, and I keep blocking his number but he seems to check his phone number by a the last two digits.

I will not fall for this, but many people will when they hear Publishers Clearing house.

I have report the various numbers to Do Not Call, but that has never stopped anything.

Caller claiming to be "Linda Gates" from Publisher's Clearing House left voice message while we were away. Said it was urgent that we call to claim our prize. We were skeptical but called anyway. Once my husband, XXXXX, said the word "Yes", the person hung up.

We have just learned that this is a new scam where they record your voice saying "Yes"...and along with your phone number can make purchases in your name.

The two phone numbers that "Linda" Gates" left on the voice mail were 865-268-8135 and 876-853-7462. We called the 865 area code number.
