Publishers Clearing House is so famous and its sweepstakes are so popular that the chances to win are extremely low. You're looking at odds of 2. For comparison, the odds of winning a Powerball jackpot are "only" about But remember, you have to pay money to play Powerball, which substantially increases your risks.
Another disadvantage of PCH sweepstakes is that the entry process includes several pages of advertisements and offers. You can receive a high volume of unwanted mail if you overlook the opt-out options, so take the time to read through what you are agreeing to when entering. Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes Scams:. Many people wonder: are Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes scams?
They aren't. PCH giveaways are closely watched by state regulatory commissions and legal agencies, and the drawings are made by an independent third party to ensure everything is done fairly. Although the company has run afoul of state regulatory agencies for not making it clear that purchases would not influence the chances of winning, Publishers Clearing House has changed their procedures and is now giving away more prizes than ever. Although Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes are legitimate, a number of scammers try to capitalize on the popularity of these sweepstakes by using the PCH name to lure in victims.

Inside, the smaller doll represents the scammers, gnawing through PCH's already damaged reputation by pretending to be PCH so it can steal money from people. How do you know the difference between the fake PCH letter and the real one? There are several ways. The fake one came with a check to help cover expenses.
PCH doesn't do that, Irving says. The fake one has several obvious spelling and grammatical errors, showing it likely originated in a foreign country. Yet both carry the PCH logo. Another clue: the fake letter asks you to keep your winnings a secret: "Please keep this award letter strictly confidential until your cash prize winnings has been processed and remitted to your designated account.
In that sentence, shouldn't "has been" be "have been" because "winnings" is plural? What does PCH have to do with publishers and magazines? Surely, a business that began in sending magazine subscription reply forms by mail has no place in today's world. But PCH is quite adaptable. A lot of "as seen on TV" products, small, inexpensive household items, cleaning products, outdoor camping gear and more. They call it "a mall in the mail. Lots of games, I'm told.
