Report

I was called and told I had won the Publisher's Clearing House award based on a "coupon" I sent in last January. I was very cautious and after much questioning, I was told I should go to get a "moneygram" at Maria's (he didn't give me the address, supposedly in Knoxville, and said the delivery team was 1 hour away, but I would need to verify my account for the money to be deposited. I gave the phone to my husband and he asked for a phone number to call Bruce Goldman, the name given me at the beginning of the call, and we would call to verify at Publisher's Clearing house then return his call. He said he would do that, then hung up.

I had returned the above phone number earlier and received a message that he would "return my call" and Have a Blessed Day.

I would like this investigated to save some person who might fall for this Scam.

Thanks

The caller said his name was David Johnson and I won 2.5m and Mercedes Benz from PCH. He also put his manager on the line and his name was John White his ext :25 ID 933145 check no 5058500127. He asked me to get a Walmart to Walmart sender form for $299 and send it to Betty Onellion. All this time he did not want me to disconnect. After I made the transaction, I called PCH and found out it was a scam. So rushed back to Walmart and cancelled it. He called back and left a message that he has my credit card info. I am worried he knows my address.

Phone call from the number above stated they were from Publishers Clearing House and that they were about to award me a cashier check for 9.5 Million Dollars. They told me that I needed to go to Walgreens, Bank of America, or Dollar General to pay for insurance on the dollar amount before the prize was delivered to my home and that they were in the State and going to be delivering the prize in 45 minutes. Spoke with local Walgreens and they said several other people had been in and told to wire money for insurance and that it was a scam.

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Publisher's Clearing house stating I won $960,00 and a Mercedes. Her name was Victoria Golden. I was not home at the time so they are to deliver prize tomorrow, Nov 1, 2016. She did not ask for payment for prize. She said I would have to give 2 forms of identification to their lawyer, David Brown. I have not done this nor have I seen David Brown. I was not asked for bank, credit card, or SS information. I was given a batch # 1985, conf# 392178, ck # 0098275300, pkg# B224. They called and I hung up, then they called back and my husband answered. He was asked why I hung up and he told them I thought it was a scam. Ms. Golden assured him that it was not a scam and gave me the information above in order to process the prize. I guess I well have some charge to my phone bill.

I received a call stating it was Publisher's Clearing House and I just won 1 million dollars and a Mercedes. They said it could be delivered within 2 hrs. They started asking me personal questions such as do I work. I told him I would not answer these questions. They then asked me for $425 and do I have that amount in cash at home or do I need to go to the bank. I told them I would need to go to the bank and they asked how long that would take. I told them 20 minutes, they said they would have to be on the phone with me this entire time due to Lawyers and legal issues. They said the money would be sent to an offshore account. I told them I was not interested and said his was a scam and hung up.

The man said his name was mark Auscin and lives in Jamaica.

I was contacted by Publishers Clearing House saying that I won $70,000,000 and a brand new car, and that I needed to send them money in order to get this. Their reason for this was because they stated that there was tax that I owed them, which I was not aware of. This was a red flag for me because I felt that if they needed to take out any taxes, they would take it out of the amount of money that I won.

Received a phone call from the above number telling me I have won some money and would I be interested in receiving it. I told them no because PCH does all their contact in person. They asked for by email address. I told them that if they were PCH they had it. The man asked me to repeat 3 times that I did not want it and it could go to someone else. I told him that I did not have to repeat anything 3 times. He hung up.

Called to state I won $2.5 million + 2016 Mercedes. Must send $499 via USPS Money Order (1%) of car value up front to cover "private delivery" of car rather than my going to NY to pick it up. Upon receipt of my money, a lawyer will appear at my door with a Fed Ex vehicle to present my prize.
