Thanks.

Called from Jamaica and told me to call this # I won some money from pch, he said they were 30 minutes from my house to deliver the check I didn't call the #

They called from 8768941788 from a Michael Anderson something and was told i had a package to be delivered to my door in 30 minutes. BUT i would have to call 7024181225 ext. 5 and talk to a Raymond Kennedy. So i called and he said I had won 842,000 plus a 2014 Mercedes but i would have to drive to a walmart, walgreens, or a dollar general to pay a $399 processing fee to obtain said package. Verification code for package was 775us. He also said that it was coming through Bank of America. B***S***! Anyway when i told him about a scam going around he freaked out and asked if i wanted to decline.

Said they were from publisher clearing house

I recievd a call on my cell phone.  The person  on  thee other end of  this call told me I won 95 thousand plus dollars and a new car. I said this is B S.
So they hung up. I called the number from my caller I D and was told to leave a message

Phone number called me too it is a fake just mention Google n they will hang up n stop calling

I noticed that I missed this call on my phone and since I've had scammers call me before I decided to google the number. Glad I wasn't able to answer it.

Got a restricted call saying to call this number saying I won $450,000 and a brand new mercedes Benz. I Googled the REAL pch number and it is 800-645-9242. When the Guy called back I told him the number didn't work. He then "supposedly " transferred me to the "876" to speak with Raymond Kennedy. I was like.." do you have the "real" number to pch... customer service?  He said yes.. gave me 2 "800" #"s and I said I was going to "Google" them to see if they were legit .... and can you believe it.... the joker hung up in my face. They probably are going to remove me from the do not call list.

No message call hung up before I got it. I read the comments about this caller and made room for him on my reject list.

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.

They never require any money, purchases, taxes, fees, or deposits of any kind to get your prize.

Publishers Clearing House DOES NOT call, email, FAX, mail, any advanced notice that you have won.

"If you are ever contacted by someone claiming to represent PCH, or claiming to be one of our employees,  and asked to send or wire money (for any reason whatsoever, including taxes); or send a pre-paid gift card or Green Dot Moneypak card in order to claim a sweepstakes prize ? DON?T!  It?s a SCAM. If you are sent a check, told it?s a partial prize award, and asked to cash it and send a portion back to claim the full prize award, DON?T.  The check is fake, but the SCAM is real!

Publishers Clearing House does not operate this way and would NEVER ask for money to claim a prize award.  PCH employees would never contact you personally or in advance to notify you of a prize award.  Our prize awards are presented just the way you see in our popular TV commercials, ?live and in person? by our Prize Patrol, with balloons, champagne and check in hand - - and with no advance notification!"

I just ignored a call from this number because I did not recognize it. There was no voicemail left. I suspected it to be a solicitor due to receiving large quanities of spam mail suddenly as well. I googled the number moments ago and have seen several reports of this being someone claiming to be from Publishers Clearinghouse. I'm glad I didn't answer. I have an Arkansas number...

These idiots just called my wife with dogs barking in the background. I was worried they were our dogs, so I'm having the cops do a sweep through the neighborhood. I called back and left a message telling them as such.

876-849-8000 x101 David Green Claim #775U

Same thing here!  Jamaica # said he was from Publisher's Clearing House and was 45 min from my house.  I said no, I wasn't home and he said "so you don't want your money".  I told him what he could do with his prizes and hung up.  Don't take calls from these people!!  S C A M!!!!!

Just received this call.  The same thing as above.  I won $250,000,000 and a new Mercedes.  As we were talking I googled this "Publisher Clearing House" and then read to Raymond Kennedy all of the complaints.  Be aware.  This is some kind of scam.

Called saying I won the Publisher's Clearing House sweepstakes and a car. Told me to call 876-473-4093 x 5 to talk to Raymond Kennedy. Sounds very sketch.

I just got the same call with the same "Raymond Kennedy" Of course, I didn't call--I googled it and then called the local Sheriff's office. If they call back I'll let them know the Sheriff's office would like to speak with them :)

Received phone call on my home phone from #876-459-2259. Answered call, bad connection, so hung up. I have caller ID, but did not have glasses on to see number. Person tried calling again, but I knew the area code was from Jamaica so I never picked up. Previously, someone tried to scam me dialing my cell. Again, a Jamaican area code. Everyone please be aware of your area codes before answering. It can save you a big headache and unwanted charges on your phones.

Got a phone call today from 1-876-843-7025 stating they were Publisher Clearing House and I had won $250,000.00 and a new car and needed to know if I was home for them to deliver it. I said no. He asked when I would be home.  I told him he had the wrong person and to verify my shipping address.  He said he didn't know, only that he knew it was in Indiana so I asked him for a number to call him back at.  He asked me to call 876-473-4093 and talk to Raymond Kennedy his supervisor with a verification code he provided and make arrangements for them to deliver my prizes. I hung up and goodled the phone # and saw all of this was a scam.

Yess Scam Scam Scam.......Alert All You Know...Contact Your Lical TV Station So Others In Your Area Can Be warned

Total Scam... super aggressive guy on the other end of the phone, calling elderly parents trying to get money out of them.  Called 6 or 7 times and won't stop.  Told them I was calling police, then he switched me over to this supervisor who tried to say that they were "legit."

DON'T Fall for this trap!

SCAM!

Don't give them any information!

Got a ph call from a private number stating they were Publisher Clearing House and I had won $250,000.00 and a 2013 Mercedez Benz and needed to know if I was homefor them to deliver it. I said no. He asked me to call 876-473-4093 and talk to Raymond Kennedy and make arrangements for them to deliver my prizes. I hung up and goodled the ph # and saw all the notes about the scam.

Got the same exact phone call.

Yelp Cara A Scam!!

Got a call from John, said he was with Publisher's Clearning House.  He said he was 45 minutes away and was delivering a car and $35,000.  All I had to do was call the number above speak to his superviser Laymon Kennedy to claim my prize.  The call was from an unknown number, but he told me to call the number above.  I obviously didn't call, but wanted others to be aware.

Yep, scammer call be careful

Gout a call from this number ... Claimed they were from Publisher's Clearing house ...

Called that I wond lottery and a car. Keeps calling every other day.

This caller by name of David Morgan called twice today saying you won a car and to go to customs and pay 495.00 and your car will be delivered to you!  
Do you think everyone is STUPID as you Mr. Morgan!!

Report it to Project JOLT... the US and Jamaican governments are teaming up to get these scammers.

Got over 30 calls from this phone number yesterday. Showed up as Kingston, Jamaica. Said I won $250k and a car and that all I needed to do was to go to a store and get a green dot money pac card for $200 and call back and that people would be at my door in 45 minutes. This is a scam! If they call you do not fall for it. I hope they stop calling.
