At best, you can still file complaints with the FTC, CFB, FBI, Your states Attorney General etc..

I received a call from this number, I usually keep them on the line as long as I can or have them call me back several times before they quit (just because I like to mess with them). They were excited for me to win 2.7 million and a new 2014 Lincoln Navagator WOW!!!!!!! one miner problem they needed $1,755.00 on a green dot card from one of several places (a pre-paid credit card) they tell you that you are not to scratch the card until the people arrive with your winnings, but the scratch off only tells what you have on the card which will be $0.00 when they are finished. I told them I was a poor construction worker and could not come up with the $, they called me back with great news, I only needed $399.00 and they would carry the rest. I will see how long they keep calling me to see if I have the green dot card yet. Too funny and too bad that people will actually provide this to them.

Just got a call from this number. At first thought it was a recording since the call sounded automated, however the caller's responses indicated that he/she was using a voice scrambler. This person, an "Omar Goldberg" claimed to be from the post office and stated that I have a package from PCH which consisted of $1.6 million and a new Range Rover. Since I had never entered a PCH sweepstakes, I was not amused. Omar stated, "you don't seem to excited about receiving this package". I stated that "I don't think this is legit" to which Omar replied, "well then it's not legit", and then hung up the phone. I could also hear a TV in the background.
Thanks for an interesting morning, Omar!

DO NOT return the call from someone calling from a 876 area code.
This is not a toll free "800" number, it is the international long distance code for the island nation of Jamaica. You are charged international and long distance rates for calling this number. Other international/long distance area codes are 809, 284, and 649.

Scammers use these numbers to not only try to scam you out of money, but also sting you with high phone call rates.

Do report the calls, Jamaican and US officials are still actively tracking down and arresting the offenders:

Someone called me from 8763965022 with computerized voice telling me they want to send me $900,000 check today. I asked how they got my number and that I don't think I signed up for it and they hung up on me. I think if someone wanted to give me $900,000 for some reason they would try a little harder, I mean I get that kind of offer all the time psh

Me: Who do you want to speak to?

People are getting so desperate during the holiday season that they just want to ruin it for everyone else by pulling lame a** scams.

Man said his name was Wilson and calling from UPS. Said he had a BMW and 25,000 to deliver to me today. I told hime he was full of SH$T and not to call me again.
| Wanda 2012-07-24 15:40:38 Unknown |
Mr Omar Balck called cell phone and said we had a check from ups to be delivered today. I told him this was a fake called and not to call again. Something need to be done to stop these people. Some people will fall into the trap they create and loose a lot

A man named 'Rupert', he claimed, called saying he was from UPS. Sounded like he was faking his voice for a prank call. I just hung up.

Real person called my cell. Poor connection. Something about Publishers Clearing House. No doubt a SCAM since I've never submitted any entries & VERY few people have my private cell #. BLOCKED the number from cell ph. (VERIZON allows up to 5 numbers blocked for Free, valid for 90 days.) This is the 2nd number I've (EVER) had to block & both were from 876/Jamaica. 1st one was 5/30/12.

Received a call today, 5-22-2012, from 876-396-5022 -- computerized voice saying I'd won a new BMW and a cashier's check for delivery to Tennessee (my home state), all from Publisher's Clearing House. Well, knowing that publisher's clearing house is (1) in the habit of surprising people with their prizes and (2) capable of paying a live person to make a phone call and (3) that they require actual entries for their prizes, I said I didn't get it, that it sounded like a scam to me. The line immediately disconnected from the caller's end. Just as I suspected. Don't buy it people. If you get a call like this, just hang up. Don't be a victim. Peace.
