Email me back at william1949 @netzero.net thank-you
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
i just received a call from the most annoying illiterate hard hearing female that ever walked this planet, person, claiming i won a truck and a half a million, Went on to tell me that she is a christian and that it is such a blessing and that she would do anything wrong because she has been with the company for ten years, yet she asked my email address 8x's thats when i knew this was BS, because no company in their right mind would hire some as inept as this person and claimed that my prize would be delivered this evening, she says she was calling from the company yet her called came from Fair haven VT, not where the so-called American Sweepstakes Lottery offices are listed on Google numbers listed: she gave me two numbers the number she called on [protected] and a supposed office # [protected]
It’s happening to me as well. A man with an Indian accent wants to give me 2.5 BILLION dollars (lmao), some of it’s a cashiers check, some in a silver suitcase. He wants to come over and them DRIVE ME to the bank to get clearance of something (are these people trying o kidnap me?) oh AND a BMW through Geico. Keeps asking if I know what Geico is, like this makes them legit. They are VERY persistent. Calling and calling and now texting. It’s all so bizarre. They haven’t asked me for money yet—guess they do that in person (jokes on them; I have no money!). But this whole getting in the car with them thing, like really, and the briefcase . . What? Are they trying to launder money through me? I’ve dealt with scammers before, but these guys are hardcore!
THIS IS PCR
I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING PHONE CALLS SAYING THAT I HAVE WON 4.5 MILLION, SOMT TIMES MORE SOMETIME LESS TODAY IT WAS 17 MILLION AND BMW, BUT WANT ME TO SEND 2500.00 TO PAY THE TAXES, BUT WAS WILLING TO HELP ME BY PAYING SOME OF THE 2500.00
AND THEN I COULD PAY THE AMOUNT BACK WHEN I RECEIVED THE MONEY, BUT HAD TO SEND PART OF THE MONEY BY WESTERN UNION

AND WILL NOT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER, EVEN THO I HAVE TOLD THEM THAT I WAS CALLING THE FBI, THEY WILL STOP FOR A WHILE BUT THEN THEY START ALL OVER, AND THEY CALL THEM SELVES JON AND JAMES.

I got a call from Publishers clearing house Albert Johnson saying I had won $650K in check, $195k in cash and a BMW. All they need is $395 for processing the legal documents. [protected] saying he was in Las Vegas but my caller id said Jamaica. After telling him I couldn't pay that. He got off the phone to see what other options there are. I got an email with all the details. It looks very official but I smell a scam!
The same guy has called on various different numbers based in Jamaica 22 times over the last 2 weeks. Last night he called at 4am. Same guy, says his name is James Foster and he's with publisher's clearing house. Refuses to take my number off of his calling list. Numbers he has called from include:
[protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected]
It has now been almost 4 weeks and THESE people still keep calling me. I have called the FBI, the FTC and the local police about these annoying phone calls. I know it's a big scam and I'm sick to death of it. I have had to put my answering machine ringer on 4 so they will just hang up. I figure if it's really important whoever is calling will leave a message. [censored], I am so over it and I am at my wits end as to how to stop this harassment. I have put my number on the Do Not Call Registry but I am afraid that will not solve the problem. How many endless weeks do I have to endure this nonsense? For crying out loud, I just want to throw the phone through the wall.
My fee was only 225, 00 LOL I told him I was waiting for that then I hung up on a man with a heavy African accent. Scam pure and simple.
I got a call from a [protected] who claimed to be a Jon Gyler with the American Sweepstakes Lottery out of nevada. I was told i won 3.5 mill, $50, 000 cash, $5, 000 a week for life and a 2014 Mercedes Benz of my color choice but before i could recieve any winnings i had to send him $400.00 western union. He gave me the check number, the plate number to the 2014 Mercedes Benz that i was supose to get along the phone number [protected] that was said to belong to an attorney by the name of Larry Cooper.
It seems that AMERICAN SWEEPSTAKES AND LOTTERIES are extreme SCAM ARTISTS! Not to be trusted...Take names & phone numbers and turn them over to the FBI!

I was notified by phone that I won an 8.5 million dollar winnings. They want to deliver a certified check by UPS. and pay an amount of $350.00 at delivery. The person that contacted me is Mr. Michael Black of the American Sweepstakes Lottery. His contact information is [protected], I am suppose to hear from them Mon Sept. 17th at 930am.
This is so upsetting to my family and myself because two weeks ago my husband received a check from a company for almost $5000 and we were so excited and then I got to checking into the company and so on and of course found out that it was all a scam. We were so angry. Well once again today March 2nd we received another check and boy did this one look real, it even said it was from Progressive insurance company. It all looked legit, but of course we got the letter with the check. I did try and call the number they give you because I'm so angry I wanted to tell the person what a horrible person they were, but of course its just a recording and you can't leave a message because its too full. Well I hope this helps at least one person thank you very much, Angela...
