876-503-7886

Claimed to be from my "local UPS service". Said I had a check from "Publishing Clearinghouse" and asked if I'd be home all day. When I told him I didn't believe him the line went dead.

Report the Jamaican scammers to the FTC.  Here's a link concerning Project JOLT at the FTC site:

Sorry and ashamed to say I DID get scammed. They got $2,000 from me and I also got a $236 phone bill to boot.  Police cant and wont do anything about it cause its out of their jurisdiction. Seems like a lost cause. Its no wonder these scammers continue to scam. They know there is NO WAY they will be caught. The have already scammed $21,000,000 to date. Sad world were living in.

I got a call today and the man said he was from the local UPS office.  He said I had won a new car and something else (I can't remember).  He asked if I had remembered registering and I told him no and the line went dead.

I am a top cell phone provider employee (not allowed to disclose) and I just dealt with a customer calling in about this. Do not call this number at all. There is nothing cell phone providers can do about the charges on your bill. Sorry!

Got a call from this number and they wanted me to go to Walmart with 2K in cash, pick up a card and they'd give me a14 digit number to put my money against that card.  Instead of going to Wal-Mart I headed to the Troy, AL Police Department.  The caller stayed on the line and wanted to know when I got to the closest stop-light next to Walmart.  When I arrived at the Troy PD, the police officer asked who was on the phone.  When the Police Officer identified himself to the caller, the caller hung up.

Lesson!! Never give your personal information out to unsolicated emails or telephone calls.  They already have much of it already and you don't need to give them more!  Also....if you get a call, while you are talking to the individual, go to your computer and google the number listed from the caller.  You will be surprised when you get to a web page like this one about people getting cleaned out of their hard earned money.  Next...inform the FTC through their web site.

It is now January 8, 2013 12:49pm and I just hung up the phone with people from this number. I definitely got excited thinking I had won some money. I decided to google the number first & Thank God I did!...Thank God for google and Thank God for skepticism...I don't have $2,000 anyway...lol So they called the wrong girl!
Whew
Well They actually called from 8763617702 the 18765037886 number I was given to call to claim my prize!!!!

I just received a call from this number in Jamaica too. We had just been on a caribbean cruise (not to Jamaica but other islands) and I'm now wondering if that's how he got our number!!  All he said was, "How you doing today?" and I told him he had the wrong number and he immediately hung up.

I just got the same call and decided to look it up.  Glad you posted.

they called me and asked if I remembered singing up for publishers clearing house, which I had. they kinda suck at scamming. didn't sound professional at all and didn't even introduce himself. if I win some money I want to see a giant check, some balloons, and a camera on my front porch!!!!!

called telling me I had won 2.5 million and a new car, they just needed a 300 dollar lic. fee.

What a stupid thing Jamaicans are cooking up to get your money...<There is no lottery in Jamaica mon.

I just got a call too ....he asked if I was who I am.... asked where he was calling from and who he represented he told me Publisher's Clearing House...then said Listen Bi*ch...I said Excuse me???? He said I'm transferring you over to an agent... said don't bother...blocked his number.

They just called and said i had won a car i said thanks but not interested and they said "oh ok", and i hung up. SCAMMERS

Didn't leave a message.  Call originated from Jamaica.

This is f'n ridiculous! Shame on me for believing this. I left work early, went on a wild goose chase and lost $309 to this scam. I am embarrassed I fell for it. I always tell people you shouldn't pay to win money. This guy was on the phone with me for 4 hours and said he was from PCH (Publisher's Clearing House). What a crock of [***]!

I just got that phone call today, then I hung up on him. He called back and asked "why did you hang up on me?" and I was like "Because I know this is a scam" and he rambled really fast on and on about how this isn't a scam and how he was just the customer service for the "publishing clearinghouse" and  how they ran 100 numbers in a raffle bowl and mine was drawn and that I won a 2,000 prize. Then he asked if I was home, I said no I was out for a walk. and he asked if I was near my home and I said no that I was clear across town.  and he asked when would I be home, because my 'prize' was going to be delivered today.  Then I said I was going to be out of the house all day and asked if I could call them back and he gave me this number : 1-876-503-9622 and told me to ask for "Richard Anderson"'s extension. I googled that number and it's from Jamaica and this is where I found the specific publishing clearinghouse story.

Scam call claiming he's Mr. James walker about winning second place in publisher clearing house. Asked me to call him back. In researching this is a foreign lottery scam. https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/blog/rounding-foreign-lottery-scammers
