They used CVS website to scam me saying I was a value customer and we will have you to pick out a free gift and all you have to pay shipping and handling cost which is 10 dollars. I choose 2 gifts. The gifts came but they was cheap gifts but for 20 dollars I didn't care much. Later my credit card was charged 154.82 for the gifts. I called them and they say they not taking the gifts back. They use CVS website to use false advertising. Watch out for this.

They are saying they work for Facebook we won money and needing all our information and a picture of our drivers license front and back to get $75,000.00. I first got a message from Justin Potts about me being on the list. He keeps pushing it for me to do it. Finally I do it knowing it's a scam just to see what it's all about. He wanted a list of info and a picture of my driver's license front and back. Did a little bit of searching on the profile picture and found it to be Randy Hutchinson. Figured it would be best to reach out to Randy and inform him about it. Not sure if it is fully Justin Potts or if he is part of it and multiple people are involved.

My ex-coworker told me about this and said he received the $50,000 in cash through FedEx and I would have to go through the steps to get the $50,000. I clicked then on the link and we chatted through Facebook Messenger. Then he told me let me check to see if you are in our data center which took about 10 minutes and he said yes I am in the data center. He asked me a bunch of questions, went back to whoever and said you are close to being a lucky winner. He sent me a form saying select what amount of money you would like and I selected the lowest one. There were executive fees, copies, sending it by FedEx and to go get a $500 gift card from Walmart, etc. He told me to snapshot the back of the card and he said I'm a lucky winner. He told me in order to pay for the gas for the Fed Ex driver to send another $500 gift card. Then I was still a lucky winner to send him $2000 through a gift card. I stopped and decided not to go through this anymore.

I received a post card. It said $250 in rewards were being held at their distribution center good for Amazon, Costco, Home Depot and other stores. I called the number on the postcard and I was asked to pay $1.98 for the closing of the reward. I asked what the reward was for and they said everyone within my zip code area was receiving it. It seemed suspicious to me so I didn't give my credit card information.

I received an email several times last week saying that I was a winner to receive a 65in smart color tv due to being a valued customer to Walmart. The email said it was $5 for shipping and handling and included a URL that led me to a website where I could enter my payment information. I entered my payment information for $5. They ended up taking $8.12 from my CashApp card then 1 minute later they charged my CashApp card $132.90. I reported the transactions to CashApp and they reversed the charge of $132.90 and received a notice to put a block on my card. The charge for $5 and $8.12 went through because it was a smaller amount.

Publishing clearing house calls my mom house phone everyday claiming she won a prize. I know its a scam because they dont call you they show up at your house. She claims they told her she could get her winnings if she loaded a visa gift card with $500. I want them to stop calling.

A person named Pamela Hamilton called and sent me an email that was supposed to be a verification that I would receive money from Publishers Clearing House but first I would have to take $700 and purchase two American Express gift cards at Walgreens so I would have a receipt. Then they were supposed to come and deliver me money that I evidently was supposed to have won. I told her I would not do anything without my son's approval because he is my power of attorney and so he told me to block everything from Pamela Hamilton and Publishers Clearing House. That is why I do not have a telephone number or email address for them. Thank you

A email I received stating I had won a iphone from Walmart. All that was needed was a shipping fee of $5.95. the scammers so called name on the transaction on my direct express card, is Best SE & Fancy Ideas Beautiful. They are stating it was in California. They actually not only had taken the $5.95, but also charged $79.00! When I discovered this I called the customer service & it states they are closed on a v.m. no matter what time of day I was calling! I sent repeated emails to them and they sent one back saying to please call their customer support for a refund! Lol! Also, I couldn't ever reach the dispute dept. For my debit card, Direct express, no matter when I called! That's another complaint issue with a lot of people, I'm just finding out! Each time I was on the phone for an hour with Direct express, and I was consistently on hold, for long periods of time before I got frustrated & eventually hung up! So , all the times I was calling & being put on hold for an hour, and not getting anywhere, & even trying to reach direct express by email was a waste of time, so in the meantime, before I could cancel my card, this scam company using Walmarts name, charged more money, $69 on my debit card!! And I still don't have anything resolved, other than cancelling my old card so these amoral scammers cannot use my card # anymore! I can't believe Wal-Mart doesn't know about this!, Or is unwilling to do something about it themselves to stop this! So angry that I couldn't stop it with my own bank card in a timely manner before they took a second payment from me! What is wrong with this picture?!! Unbelievable!!! Sick of these con artists duping people, & getting away with it!
