A man by the name of David Fayer called saying he was with Publisher's Clearing House and said I won $850,000 for the day and $5,000 weekly for life and a new GMC pickup. He gave me award numbers and claim numbers, a check number and a prize number. He then needed $300 in a gift card for me to claim the prize. I told him my wife had the credit card and he could talk to her. Told him she would hang right up on him. I did not fall for this scam.

A Michael Peterson called me and said I had won a prize and he needed my email to send the forms to me on how to claim. My email never received anything so when he called me back I told him to just mail the forms to me. Instead he ups them to a store I Galesburg, Illinois. When I call the ups store they do indeed have the forms and that they were fraudulent and this happens on a weekly basis. If u call the number he actually answers it.

I got an automated message from Mr. Goldberg congratulating me on my Publisher's Clearing House win, for $5000 a week for life, and a gas card. My prize number is 85647 and I should call 346-262-4458 to claim my prize. I have had my identity stolen four times: once with Experian, Mt Carmel East, Central Ohio Medical, then I had a credit card stolen and used to purchase merch in FL which was sent overseas.

I got a message from a friend on Facebook who sent me to a site for winning money. Agent Morgan Smith, Online Claiming Agent, in Florida, device ID 048a5tc417e2ed79. He works for Publishers Clearing House. He says I've won money, sent me a list for me to choose how much I would like to win. I could get $5 million if I paid $50,000. He asked me if there were any stores around. He wants me to buy a $50 gift card to get $10,000 from Walgreens, Walmart or Dollar Store. He said the winnings would be delivered by Fed Ex. He told me to keep it from public. I gave him my mailing address and phone number. He is sending me IM through FB private messages.

A male contacted my mother by a landline stating that she was a winner of $650k. He advised that she should keep this private and confidential and not to tell anyone. However, to "claim" her prize, she needed to go to Walmart or Walgreens within 30 mins to an hour and get gift cards in the amount of $499. She received several calls from this subject asking if she had gone to Walmart or Walgreens yet; and in one he advised that the people bringing her money were trying to find her house. He stated that "they" and Steve Harvey had driven by and even spoke about the car/camper in her drive.

Received a call today from someone who said I had won 5.5million and i needed to send some money through a vanilla gift card in order to register me through the state of Illinois in order for me to obtain my winnings. I was supposed to call them back today with the card numbers and I would have the millions deposited into my account on Wednesday. I was told to get 3 cards for $500 each and call back 402-235-8709 to get registered.

They asked if I had a checking or savings account and which bank i used. They did not get any account information from me.
