I wonder why you never hear of anybody you know winning all this money. They always say somebody with the initials such as mine that lives in my town is going to have a big chance to win all this money. I just wish they would put a stop to all this trash mail and let us get thru the bills we have to pay to live. I received 3 letters in 2 days telling me I have a chance to win a lot of money. That is just wasting my time and a lot of paper that could be used for something else worthwhile.
it's just a shame how many people will open this letter, take it for real, then give them the 12.00 they are asking for by credit card.
We have done studies on how many older, 70 plus, will send this back, the 12.00 to enter "on time" and the national debt could almost be paid for with the money they are getting, these rip off artists.
If you do fall into this trap, call the charge card company which you used and tell them that you did not know or charge this money to get your 12.00 back, then tell the charge card company to give you a new charge card.
I wish the government would do something really positive about these scam, I have just received this letter in the mail, its sickening and stupid, I have more intelligent things to do don't send me scam letter I,m very, very happy with my life style this money is no good for me in case you don't know, you need to be in prison stop robbing the poor we are the target because we are so desperate.

Dear P. Killinger: I just won two million dollars also on FORM/ W098. So either they are giving away four million dollars to both of us, or its a scam.
I keep getting these letter's telling me I have won this money , if I will send them 12.99 . They will send me a check for 1,140,000.00 or 2,000,000.00 annuity . Don't fall for it . It is a SCAM. They will get a hold of your checking account or Credit card or debit card and wipe you out. All this is happing from other counter's. They come here and set up this SCAM, in a USA State. To make you think it is real. Well It's not Real at all. If you answer this and send them any money they will WIPE YOU OUT. Then you will be in big trouble and the card you use or bank . Don't care they just wont their money back. So Let's hope the GOV. Will put a stop to this scam. I get one of these letter's at lest twice a week. I tear them up as small as possible. And trash them.
Just received similar direct mail for $3,000,000 requesting a $12.99 payment for "Premium Offer Acquisition Fee". I called the PCH customer service number to inquire for my wife before she sent a money order for that amount. Yes, it's a scam.
We have the same letter it says (official form of tender no.: 13570) so I figure that I was number 13,570.
If I multiply the times $12.00 it is equal to $162,840.00 a year, which is the total amount of money they will be making out of us if we all send the (FEE DUE FOR DELIVERY). I hope they get caught.
I am so tired of scams, they are everywhere! This is a big SCAM. I wrote back on my letter for them to send me the money first, then I will cash it and then send them the $12.99. I think that sounds very far.
Has anyone tried to deposit the check at the bottom of the letter? Just curious. I would like to wait at the post office box for him to pick up these responses.
So can anyone start a company like this and get away with it? It can't be that hard for the police and post office to catch this guy.
I got this letter today in mail and if I won why don't they just send me the money? Instead I gotta send them money for $12.99! I mean come on you know very easy it a SCAM!
So I took the letter and ripped it up n got it away. Thats the best thing to do for SCAMS like this.
Wow it is sad, I did not believe it. But it would have been nice. I am a man who would like to leave a lil bit to my grandson and nieces and nephews when I go. This would be a Golden Opportunity. There is the problem its not "Golden" yet another scam to get 12.00 out of people. I agree that if we took that money we would be able to pay off the national deficit in a pretty good length of time... So if you get this - don't do it !!!!
I stupidly wrote a check because the letter I received said in bold letters..... MY NAME Congratulations, you Have Just Won, $1,230,946.00 so I thought nothing of writing a check fOR $12.99. I have since gone to the bank to stop payment. I question the legality of that statement and may just pass it by a friend of mine who is an attorney. I will definitely file a complaint with the Attorney General in New Hampshire. Hopefully I will have called the bank soon enough to stop payment on my check.
