The reason I said the companies name is PCH (Publisher's Clearing House), is because I believe this is where this scam originated. I am not someone who gives out information or plays the lottery and tries to win stuff. I did however order some silicone cupcake holders. Because I did this I got some mail from Publisher's Clearing House.
Inside was a suspicious letter from Kansas. It wanted money ($11.89) to be sent to be entered to win $2,000, 000.00. For some reason I went ahead and sent it in, but without the money. I then received a second letter confirming that they received my form, but not the check and was strongly advised to send in the check as quickly as possible.
The reason I took time to send this report, is that it looks so legit!!! I am an intelligent person, and they almost had me (I teach math)! So I can just imagine the unfortunate masses out there falling for this! Don't send the money!!!
