They Are Scammers!!

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 number 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!"

Same story with me. When I told him I wasn't interested he got very abusive. Same as above, but this time it was my wife he verbally raped.

This guy isn't very smart. He keeps calling back to people who know he is a crook. I sure wouldn't want him at my house, but I don't think he is smart enough to do a reverse look up on my phone number. He did call back several times on a blocked line, but that was after he had already called me on a clear line. As I said, he isn't very smart, just abusive and rude.

Jamie Miller called and said that I won 2.5 million dollars from a walmart coupon sign up?  He had a broken english and pushed to hand deliver the money today.  I told him yea ok and hung up.  His number was 876-569-5303 that he wanted me to call him back?

Basically had the same issue as the people above although they've only called once so far. Wanted me to pay for taxes on the money I supposedly won with a Walmart, CVS, or RiteAid gift card. I told him I wasn't paying money to win money and I hung up. Total SCAM!

Who do we call to report this number to? I was offered over a million dollars from someone claiming to be a  General Manager of Publisher's clearance House. We have been getting these calls for the last 3 weeks now and I have had it. I told the guy to stop calling and I told this call is a scam. I also told him I would report him to the F.B.I if he didn't stop calling. Well he calls back putting a little girl asking for me and I can listen to what he's telling the little girl to say. I hang up and he calls back again. He says he wants me to speak to his lawyer and I called him a "LIAR" and hung up. He calls back again and tell me to "F@ck OFF" then he hangs up.

A person who says he is Stephen MacGregor is calling saying I have won 2.5 million dollars.  He wants to bring check to me.  He has my address, but the wrong last name.  I am calling the Police Dept. to report this person and the calls.

Yesterday, December 7, 2009 I received at least 8 count them at harassing phone calls from a man claiming to be the General Manager of Publisher's clearance House with a prize for me and someone else in my family. When he first called, no one was at home, and he left no message. Then he called again, because I thought it was a very important call, I foolishly called back. He answered but I could not understand him because the static was so bad on his end, so I hung up and waited for him to call back. BIG MISTAKE, he did just that, because I thought the winnings were a hoax. I hung up he called several more times that I asked him not to call again!!!!! Then this morning at 8:20 am, he called get this 6 more times (3 of those times I was on the other line with the police). When I finally told him I didn't want the alleged winnings, he and I quote responded with "I will put my d**k in your p***y. That's when I called the police, during my call with the police, this pervert ranged the other line 3 times, unaware that I was speaking with law enforcement. It was a horrific ordeal, and I pray he won't call back!!!!!
Beware of number 1-876-569-2833!!!!!!!!!!!
