They gave me a call, almost everyday, and tell me I won money and a new car. They asked me to send them money before I get the winnings. They tell me to withdraw from my bank and mail it to a PO Box number. I did this once and lost $30,000. I called Consumer Affairs in Washington, DC and reported it to the local police.

I was expecting a package for my husband shoes and I received a email stating that I was missing a zip code or did not match my package and I needed to pay an additional seven dollars.  I thought this was regarding my husband shoes but it was not.  So, I paid the seven dollars a week later the fraud watch through my bank sent me a text message stating that this transaction was fraud and I received a new card but before I had to close my account down.

I received a phone call at home from a Dennis Porter with badge # 5150.  He said he was with AAARP on Clave and that I was a winner of $950,000 and would receive a check for $7,5000 per month for life. He said I had won because I had shopped at Walmart or another discount store and used my debit card. He said it was part of a Senior citizen give back program through AARP. H He also told me that I would need to get a green money card for $360 and provide the information to someone else. He provided me an ID # 8785920 to use when FedEx came to my home and said I would need to show my ID.  He also provided package number 0019854. He told me they would also give me an additional $30,000 to use to pay for the income tax on my winnings.

Mavis L. Wanczyk sent me a message on Facebook Messenger that I won a prize on Multi-State Lottery Association. This person asked for my phone number so the agent can call me for details. I did not give my number out. This is a scam. This person just tried to call me on audio while I am writing this. Desperate scammers.

I received a call from a man, Mr. Patrick Allen, of Publishers Clearinghouse. He said I had won a big prize by cashier's check. He asked me to call him back in 20 minutes. He said it was his job to get in touch to find out why I had not claimed my prize. He said he would have to cancel the prize if I didn't follow the rules. He didn't have an accent.

I was first contacted through whom I thought was a friend on Facebook. His name was Elmer Herbert. He was a friend of an old violin student of mine. He told me that he had won a large sum of money through Worker's Compensation Appeals Board. He told me that my name was on the list also. I wanted to believe it was true, but my gut was telling me something different. Elmer Herbert told me to contact a woman named Sharon Silva at her email, which was [email protected]. She told me to give her my full name and I did just that. She stated, "you are one of the chosen winners to get a winning package." I told her that this seemed strange and I did not know how I would be getting money from worker's compensation. She stated to let her know as soon I received this message and if I was ready to claim my winnings now to the Workers Compensation Appeals Board. I was told I had to then fill out the following information: My full name, my full address, my email, my sex, my age, my marital status, my mobile number, my occupation, if I have received a grant before, do I want cash or a check, do I own a house or rent. She stated that she promised the information would be 100% safe with them. She stated to kindly fill this information out and send it back to her. I told her I did not feel comfortable doing this. I told her as much as I could use the money, that I was going to pass. She stated we need all this information so that when we bring the money to you we will ask you for that information as a secret question to make sure you are the real person we have been talking to. We will give you the cash and you sign a paper that you have received the payment from the Workers Compensation Appeal Board. Then I said, "I just looked this up. You are a scammer." Then she got a bit mad and said, "LISTEN VERY WELL. This is a Federal Government Project and how do you expect a Federal Govt Project to be a scam? WE want you to know that this money is TAX FREE and you never have to pay it back. Then she said, WE ARE WAITING FOR THE FORM HERE NOW!!! Workers Compensation Appeals Board." I blocked the man that contacted me and she then deleted the emails, but I had downloaded them so that I could report this so no one gets scammed by these people.

I got a call today from a woman who said she was calling from Consumer Clearing House. She had an accent. I could hear other callers in the background. She told me I had won 1/2 million dollars. She asked if I was married or lived alone. She claimed a check would be delivered by courier on September 1st between 9a and 11a. She said the bank was HSBC. She said I could call the federal government at 202-866-7446 and they would verify that I had won the money. She said my claim number is M415D482-45. She said I had to talk to their attorney, and transferred me, but we got disconnected. The attorney called me back, and said I would have to pay taxes on the money, $216,000. Then she said she could get me a sponsor, and I would just have to pay $65,000. I said I don't have that kind of money. Then she asked if I could pay $6,500, and I explained I was on SS and needed my money for food and rent and didn't have extra money for that. Then she asked if I could pay $1500, and she would get a sponsor to pay the remaining. I told her no. The attorney said she would call back if she found a sponsor for me. She knew my name and address.

I was called and told that I had won the Publishers Clearing House. He tried to get $1500 for taxes on $5 million and a Cadillac prizes.

I was suppose to fill out paper work so he could put the prize thru. I told him he was a hoax and hung up.

He had a 833 phone number. He called at least 5 times and I hung up before he could talk. The 6th call I told him I had talked to the police dept and if he showed up at my home he would be greeted by the police. He tried another number the next day begging me to follow all the paper work and I hung up.
