card, They said it will be free of charge that way. If I decide to get it in the mail I would have to pay all these extra fees.

Phone call from an unknown number. Hung up once. Got immediate call back. Listened to caller who told me I'd won a Publishers Clearing House prize. Caller said check would be delivered at a specific time today. Said I would need to pay a $300 delivery fee. That's when I hung up. Received a total of 7 calls from listed number.

After getting the card I called the number listed. The receiver sounded foreign and was a female that took the claim number but told me to hold on but the call was lost. The second call was a male and I did the same thing and gave the claim number and he explained. That they needed a credit card number to receive the winnings. At this point it was suspicious and I told them it was out of place and hung up. The other side of the post card says savings for Walmart, target, and more. This scam is possibly targeting seniors as well

He stated I had won the PCH 3.5 million grand prize , a Chevy Tahoe High Country and 5k a week for life. He asked if I wanted this to be private or public. I told him public then he asked if I had a car which I denied. He stated a courier would bring the check but I had to pay a fee for government taxes of 928 usd. He gave me a confirmation code and a package number and when I told him that winning 3.5 mil would cost more than 928.usd in taxes the phone started cutting out so I hung up.

Someone wanted to "follow" me on Instagram and in a message said he had won millions in Powerball. He asked for my full name, address, email address, phone number, and state ID/DI so that he could FedEx $5000.

Received an email correspondence stating that I won a million dollars in 2021 and would need to send 100 to claim it. Scammer provided a certificate with my home address on it but my name was misspelled. They claim they wanted to send me the money I "supposedly" won.

Got a phone call at 8:43 this morning. December 13, 2022. Said his name was Paul Johnson.

ID# 1916190529USPCH.

Would have to go to Walmart, Dollar General or Walgreens to get a registration card. I have to purchase. Like a prepaid Visa. I would then take this card to the court house and he would direct me by phone as to what to do next. Said I would be receiving a car & 7K a month for the rest of my life. So convincing. I when straight online to ScamPulse.com & I see others are getting the same lie.
