On Friday, September 16, 2016 I received an email from Publishers Clearing House telling me that I would be receiving a letter in the mail from PCH, however, it was a mistake and my name was inserted into the letter regarding a $10,000 prize.  Furthermore, it stated that a person (and they gave his name, city, state) in California was the actual winner of the prize.  Then there was the "SORRY" and that they were giving me entries into a special drawing for $10,000.  This also appeared as a pop-up on my tablet.  Lucky for them, the actual letter has yet to arrive. 

I have purchased magazines from them, etc, and truly thought I'd been hacked however I came across this web site and discovered I wasn't the only one who had received this notification.  I wonder how many others were sent a letter by mistake.  What kind of people are they?  I am no longer ordering anything from them or accessing their web site to play games and win tokens.  I've heard from many people that their Sweepstakes were a fraud even though they have commercials on TV.  Wonder what else they're up to?
