Description
I received a letter in the mail from PCH saying I had won $760,000. Enclosed is a check written against Bancorp, ********** ************ ******* Inc. Letter signed by Debra Holland, Exec. VP Publishers Clearinghouse. I am supposed to call and talk to David Godson, my claims agent. The check is a sponsorship check to help with expenses related to handling and processing the winnings. The letter is to be kept confidential until the winnings are distributed. I do play PCH, but this isn't them.
