I was mailed a letter with a Canadian stamp. When I opened the letter, the letterhead suggested it was from PCH or Publisher's Clearing and I had won a grand prize of $2,600, 000 with a winning number of 383708.
This is how the letter is typed:
On behalf of all the staff and executives at the Publishers Clearing House, we sincerely extend our congratulations on your grand prize winnings of {$2,600, 000.00} Two Million and Six Hundred Thousand Dollars. We have many post winning services such as financial and legal advisors that can assist you in managing your winnings.

That was the letter, I purposely typo'ed Fank Lewis because that is how it was in the letter. Please be careful and do not find yourselves exposed to this type of scam. We all are living in very tough financial times and there are several predators that will take advantage of that.
