Got unwanted call from 518-663-2937?
I got a call today on caller ID name was Jones but the caller said she was Danielle calling from PCH about a notice I should have received she even had my address but she never told me what notice her phone kept cutting out. It just so happens I did win $10 from one of the promotions but I don't think Danielle office would call for $10 prize. The caller phone cut out I could not hear her so the call was lost.. This is a scam call because PCH does not make phone calls to winners they will sent an email but not make a phone call unless they were outside with a big Prize and trying to see if anyone is home.
Received a call from Todd Sloan with PCH.. that I won 5 1/2 million $$.. he was guiding me step by step to help me in paying taxes on my winnings thru purchasing gift cards through Visa and Home Depot. He even sent me a fake check via email !!! This is a SCAM!! He said the gift cards are encrypted into the credit card you use to buy the gift cards for paying the taxes to the IRS on your winnings... another call from My personal "Credit card" company.. saying 200 thousand had been deposited into my credit card account... ANOTHER call scam! These people work together!!
Guy claimed to be Todd Slone from PCH claiming I won 5 million 500 thousand.. He even sent me a FAKE check via email and said I need to purchase Visa gift cards and Home Depot gift cards... "which would be encrypted into my credit card for tr he purpose of paying taxes on the monies won" ... a calming and smooth talker that would help me through the entire process.. SCAM SCAM SCAM ! ! Dont get scammed!
Called my grandmother repeatedly claiming they were with Publishers Clearing House (and IRS?) and said she won $5M million dollars but needed to provide several pre-paid credit cards to cover taxes
Claimed they were with Publishers Clearing House and said I won 5 million dollars and had to send $100,000 for fees and taxes
