I just got a call from this number. They asked for me by first name and I asked who was calling? The lady on the phone was very rude and said "Well are you Erica?" I said "who's calling?" again and she again repeated very rudely "Well are you Erica or not?" I said where are you calling from? and she said " Ugh. Publishers"! (something or other) I hung up and they kept calling back. I did not answer. I then tried to call back to see who would answer but phone was busy. I then started looking online regarding this number and came across this. I'm sure its a scam. they scammed one of my friend's mom (older lady) like this. They just called her to confirm her name and address and they told her that they were going to send her a package she won through mail. When they received the package they decided they might be being scammed so decided to return it unopened. The people then started calling her back telling her that they were sue her because she came into a verbal contract with them that she would get package and open it. and now they wanted for her to at least pay the shipping costs that they had spent sending it to her ($175.00 according to them) Then they had a supposive lawyer calling them telling them that he was hired by that company and she was being sued. They kept harassing her until she changed her number. Like I said she never gave them any info except for her address. The number was from Florida.

They've called me a few times today. I had a call from this # in the past and it was some guy that didn't even speak English so I just ignore it. The thing that bothers me is they keep calling my cell which is unlisted. It's getting frustrating.
I just received a call from 310-539-7193. the guy said he was calling from publishers..not publishers clearing house, just publishers. he didn't ask me for any information. just told me to look out for a letter in the mail, because my name was pulled for a sweepstakes..who knows? i was a bit rude at first..thinking he was going to try to sell me something. but he didn't and we hung up on a good note..so i don't know what's up with that call.
