Sweepstakes Notification Ripoff saying I had won 2 million dollars. They ask you to send money to them to confirm my identity. I have the 3 letters and would be happy to scan and send them to you. I have 3 different letters requesting money be sent to them confirming my identity. It appears to be different companies or at least different departments of the same company but the letter heads on two of the letters are different. There is also a place for credit card information. One is from the Award Notifiation Commission and the other two are from Financial Reporting Services. The envelope is from te Disbursement and Fulfillment P.O. Box 2905 Kansas City, KS. While the address for Financial Reporting Services is F.R.S. Main Offices P. O. Box 107 Lawrence NY 11559. The copy of the check for 2 million 8 Hundred and 20 thousand dollars dated October 1, 2014 with my name on it.
I received these notifications after I entered a Publisher's Clearing House Sweepstakes by mail. The amounts on these letter is the same as the prize in the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes. How are they getting my information unless Publishers Clearing House gave it to them. Also I have also received another letter which I no longer have that asked me to call before I won it was a letter stated I needed to confirm my entry when I called they tried to get me to buy magazines. This is something that Publishers Clearing house does. Then when I told them I was not going to buy anything the forwarded the call to a guy who was trying to give me a free cruise they wanted my credit card information then on the phone for the Port Charges. I told them I did not have the money currently for the port charges because I did not want to give them my information. They asked me for my phone number and I refused to give it. They wanted me to tell them what I would do if I won the 2 million dollar grand prize. I told them remodel my house or go on a cruise. Seriously this should be criminal.
I received mine as well on 6/7/15. I think it is pch because I also entered. I think they sell our info. because I have won soooo much money from multiple people since...... now if I could only cash in......lol
I received mine today, 3/10 15. It specifical;ly says "money bhas definately been awarded to you . . ." Then I saw that I had to send in $20 to confirm my identity. SCAM! Why are these people still on the street?

i recieved the exact same letter, same phone call same cruize winngs....somebody needs to catch these creeps and nail theyre asses to the wall!!! its wrong and uncalled for!! imagine how many people atually do send the 20 dollars? these people are getting rich off of the less fortunate and im sick of it!!!!!!
I have also received the same things. From both Award committee and Financial reporting services. I have received the notification to call as well. and they did the same thing tried to tell me I won two watches with diamonds and then began to sell me magazines and wanted a credit card number. This I also believe is directed with Publishers clearing house. I wonder if people actually win from PCH or if their entire organization is just one Giant scam.
The attractive official appearing printed mailer offers congratulations to me by name for winning. Page 1 displays a check for $15,751.00. 2nd page is the CONFIRMATION FORM showing delivery/release amount imprinted for inspection,with the amount in big print $2,820,000.00. Above it in the small print instructions is the required $20.00 Confirmation data fee to send as directed. The return mail envelope is pre-addressed to F.R.S. Main Offices P.O. Box 107 Lawrence, NY 11559.
The elegant layout and printing of this mailer reminds me of the extremes of wording and well designed printing I have endured sifting through since 2008 as a frequent purchaser, both online and by mail, of items advertised by Publishers Clearing House. Similarities cause me to suspect that my PCH activity is causing FRS to scam me. I also frequently recieve magazines I don't order. My profile is evidently at large in the scam industry. I am in my 80s and have ignored the suspicious extreme wording obvously meant to encourage responding to purchase PCH products. That evidently makes me apperar vulnerable to games of chance and gambling.
I have also received these letters from Financial Reporting Services and I took the liberty to research this company and found this website. This company should be held accountable for their bogus claims.
I have been participating in the Publishers Clearing House contest. When I received this Award Letter from Financial Reporting Services, I thought I won $15,751.00. I became leary when I read, I must send $20.00 in order to receive my prize. I have always heard, never pay money to get money. So, I began researching on Google. Thank goodness I found this website, and I did not reply. Please catch these scammers and stop them from cheating people out of their hard earned money. Thank you.
I recieved a notice stating I had won 2,820,000.000 dollars and to send 20 dollars to confirm along with confirmation of my address and the award amount would be delivered to me within 10 days definitely. It also says that I am 100% eligible for delivery. I believe these types of scams should be prosecuted and should not be still existing since I've checked, and it has been happening to people since 1998!! If I were to be doing this, my states attorney or DA would have already made its way to me to prosecute!
Financial reporting services send me letter saying cash/price documents worth up to 2,820,000.00 just have to verify I.d cost fee to claim money my I.d. 00066737784 there no number to call so I looked it up ,one went to post office they told me customer box sound like a scam ,i hate this second one today ,I wan nightmare to end ,bc I been scammed before
I received the same letter on March 9th, 2015 from Financial Reporting Services Main Offices, P.O. Box 107, Lawrence, New York, 11159. The letter congratulated me on being a "successful entrant" and then went on to say that "You have been awarded a Check or Cash EQUILIVALENT IN LIEU." I learned from a elementary school teachers that anything given "In lieu" meant "in place of". This boils down to they have issued me this worthless piece of official looking paper "document" stating that money has definitely been awarded to me. The document shows a check facsimile in the amount of $15,751.00 and then asks me to enclose cash, check or money order in the amount of $20.00 within 10 days to secure "FURTHER ENTRY OPPORTUNITIES IN AMOUNT OF, ABOUT OR IN EXCESS OF $2,800,000.00" To this I would say, I shouldn't have to give money to an unknown sweepstakes that I was unaware that I had even entered in order to receive the money that I had already won. To make things worse I would also be required to pay taxes on the money which only further add insult to injury. DON'T FALL FOR THIS CLEVERLY WORDED SCAM!
I have received a letter from financial reporting services, stating that I have been awarded $2,820,000.00 along with a confirmation letter. They want me to send them $20.00 dollars for confirmation data fee and sign it.then send money order and signature page back in their return envelope.
I have received numerous letters from these guys. I sent in my 20.00 and got another letter saying they got my signed form, but no payment. Now that I've researched these scammers, it won't happen again. They need to be stopped. I'm sure there are people continually falling for their lies and misrepresentation.
I have received the same letter. Shame on these people. They should be turned in to someone that cares about people getting this kind of letter, especially the elderly. Judgement will come soon to people like this, just a matter of time.
Financial Reporting Services @ PO Box 107, Lawrence, NY 11559 need to be made to give the promised monies to those that were sent Award Letters. I received the one stating I had won $15,751.00 with the chance to enter for $2,820,000.00. If you read the information on the back of the first page it states in the paragraph that you have NOT won any money.....On the front it plainly states that I have won the $15,751.00. I hurt when I think of all the elderly that might take this to heart and send them the $20.00 they request.
This is hard times for all but most assuredly the elderly and unemployed. What do people get out of making false hopes for those that are in less financial statis than they are. OH, I WISH I COULD MAKE THEM PAY...........
they gave out my number when I tried to report them
I received the same letter saying that I had won 2.2 million dollars and when I tried to report them somehow my number is being used as a contact number for financial reporting services. Needless so say I have been receiving calls by people who have also received similar letters to find out if they have won. I am not in any way affiliated with this organization of liars.
Stating that I had won 2.8 million dollars and that I only needed to send a 20.00 fee and info to verify myself and I would receive the "prize". Well, after reasoning that anyone with almost 3 million to give away would be asking ME for 20 dollars I immediately ripped up the letter, placed it in the return envelope they had provided, put a stamp on it, and sent the ripped up shreds back to their scamming ass. Any time someone ask you to SEND MONEY TO GET MONEY it's a scam!
What's disturbing is that it seems that Publishers Clearing House or someone inside the company is in cahoots with these scams. As I (like many if not all others here) also have participated in PCH prize winning contest.
To which authorities should be made aware of so that and investigation can be conducted to determine which the case actually is.
Who do you think would give you that kind of money for nothing but the little money they ask for. I'll bet a lot of people fall for this scam and they make a lot of money. If it's PCH organizing this they need to go to jail. The scammers all need to go to jail. I can imagine the senior citizens fall for this and the money they send could be used for their food and medicine. Shame on the scammers!!

SCAM
CAN'T ANYBODY DO ANY THING TO THESE SCAM PEOPLE.......
Read the whole thing
The "CONSUMER INFORMATION" on the back of the first page says things like:
You have not won any money or prize.
This promotion may be under different creative presentation.
"Please be informed that your information may be shared with a third party."
Then later in the paragraph:
We are committed to your privacy and have a privacy policy which is available upon request at the address listed on the outer envelope.
This communication is not a sweepstakes or award notification...
Put more trust in the information that is not easy to read.
What a shame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FOOLS no star........................
They need a spanking with a 3/8 log chain. we got the same letters 5-8-15
they gave out my number when I tried to report them
I received the same letter saying that I had won 2.2 million dollars and when I tried to report them somehow my number is being used as a contact number for financial reporting services. Needless so say I have been receiving calls by people who have also received similar letters to find out if they have won. I am not in any way affiliated with this organization of liars.
Weak scam of Financial Reporting Services
I received a letter from:
Financial Reporting Services
PO BOX 107
LAWRENCE, NY 11559
Stating that I had won 2.8 million dollars and that I only needed to send a 20.00 fee and info to verify myself and I would receive the "prize". Well, after reasoning that anyone with almost 3 million to give away would be asking ME for 20 dollars I immediately ripped up the letter, placed it in the return envelope they had provided, put a stamp on it, and sent the ripped up shreds back to their scamming ass. Any time someone ask you to SEND MONEY TO GET MONEY it's a scam!
What's disturbing is that it seems that Publishers Clearing House or someone inside the company is in cahoots with these scams. As I (like many if not all others here) also have participated in PCH prize winning contest.
To which authorities should be made aware of so that and investigation can be conducted to determine which the case actually is.
Just another scam.
Who do you think would give you that kind of money for nothing but the little money they ask for. I'll bet a lot of people fall for this scam and they make a lot of money. If it's PCH organizing this they need to go to jail. The scammers all need to go to jail. I can imagine the senior citizens fall for this and the money they send could be used for their food and medicine. Shame on the scammers!!
Why. When you are at your lowest and something that seems good comes along do you get scammed again. Makes it hard to live.""
