- Suffolk, VA, USA • Jun 09, 2026
Report

First John Peterson (fake name) told my mom he was conducting a survey on retirees from her previous. Later he added that he & a Mr. Richmond (fake name) work together delivering Publisher's Clearinghouse prizes.

Associates:

Melinda - supposedly works for the ScamPulse.com

Catherine - she & Mr. Richmond fill in when John cannot deliver PCH prizes.

I found a WhatsApp message from my mom to Mr. Richmond dated 9.30.2025 stating, "Mr. Richmond the money is ready for pickup. The tracking number is..." According to my brother, the funds used to be sent via gift cards.

They call periodically to keep stringing her along. They have her personal information and try to get her to verify it or provide more using a romance connection (John Peterson) & flattery (his associates, who mention John Peterson's name as a reference to get her to go along).

Most recently, John promised to send her a Bentley (car).
