Description
Received a call from an individual saying he is David Anderson and that I won a main prize in the PCH Set for Life Promotional Sweepstakes. The winnings include $5000,000 and a 2025 Honda Civic (including one year of car insurance and one year of roadside assistance) plus $5,000 in vouchers that can be used at CVS, Walgreens, Dollar General and Family Dollar. He stated that the Prize Patrol Team would come to my home and deliver all my prizes. (I would be responsible for 30% taxes on the prizes and that PCH would pay 28% as sole beneficiary as payment partner leaving me responsible for 2% of the taxes), nothing will come out of my prize money. However he sad I should have to get a state approved card. I didn't understand what that meant so at which time he mentioned a Green Dot Money Pak card that I would need to purchase but he did not say the cost, I asked about the Prize Patrol Team and he gave me the following names: Dave Singer, Michael Freedman and Jennifer Sniper et.al. Note: Publisher Clearing House does not call or text winners.
