Publishers Clearing House? (1 Viewer)

Anyone think that this thing is one big fraud? I mean, last year, we got two of these things sent to us, and one of them was addressed to a friend of ours that was somehow delivered with our address on it..

The winner is also always some elderly couple in Montana.

As long as my name is NOT drawn for the jackpot, I consider it a fraud...

And that makes it a "fraud" because . . . ?

Nah, it's not that.

It's just the commercials that come off as phony to me for some reason... I figure it might just be an excuse to collect email and snail mail addresses to sell to companys for an easy profit when a person registers for said contest ..

 

[Michael Reuben]

Nah, it's not that.

Then I think it's best to take the word "fraud" out of your title.

Agreed....

Maby it should be renamed to what I was originally going to post about... 'Has anyone here actually WON from Publishers clearing house?'

Just something about those commercials that makes it all seem so phoney for some reason

 

[Chris Lockwood]

They'd have gotten in big trouble by now if they didn't actually give out the prize money.

 

[Jeff Kleist]

Fraud? No
Opportunistic predators of the American dream? Shoe-betcha

The whole idea is that the farther along you go in the contest, the more magazines you buy

I've actually won TWICE from those guys. I got a check for $1 each time....
