They were inundating me with emails recently, which all got promptly deleted.

Then, about a week ago, they stopped.

Bit of an error here. Ed McMahon was the pitch man for American Family, another sweepstakes company and competitor with Publishers Clearinghouse.

Some scammers use Publishers Clearing House as part of a scam. Youโ€™ll get a phone call or an email saying that you have won the grand prize. Many millions, plus a new car.

All youโ€™ve got to do is pay a fee, maybe $2000. Thatโ€™s a โ€œdelivery feeโ€ or a โ€œfederal taxโ€. Something like that. You can pay in Bitcoin or with gift cards.

Itโ€™s a common scam. And it must pay off, because scammers keep on using it.

It’s all those Mercedes Benz that they bought to give away to me.
They keep calling me about them.

“You don’t have to buy anything to win our sweepstakes!”

Turned out to be a damned lie.

I get calls all the time from “publishers clearing house” I always say, OH BOY! How many millions did I win this time?

The line goes blank after that.

That was the way I always viewed it. Of course it all depended on whether or not you were actually entered or in particular, if you purchased anything.
