Official looking envelope received in the mail. "Protectively sealed mail-Official documents enclosed addressee: Open on receipt and read carefully Judging Office & Decisions Center" is on the outside of the envelope. I have attached the letter enclosed with names and address crossed/blocked. in the insert inside the envelope it the Grand Prize Sweepstakes XVII Official Rules. Begins November 21 2016 and ends April 30, 2018 (No that is not a typo for 2016) Postmarked by April 30, 2018. Chances of winning the Grand Prize are one in 300 million. 2 million dollars are guaranteed to be awarded to the Grand Prize winner as specified in the offer. If winning number is not matched, Grand Prize will not be awarded. All entry numbers are distributed randomly. It is indeterminable as to whether the actual winning number has been distributed, until after promotion end date. It is possible that there will not be a Grand Prize Winner. Bonus sweepstakes: all qualified entrants will be entered into a random drawing to be conducted on or about June 30, 2018. Odds of winning based on the number of entries received. Prized are guaranteed to be awarded as follows: First prize 2 winners will each received $1000.00 USD. Second Prize 2 winners will receive $500.00. Third prize 10 winners will each receive $100.00.

I received a letter by an ANC, Award Notification Commission, stating I was a won money, but I needed to send $12 and some information first. It has a lot of official looking forms, and a lot of numbers. But I read the fine print and it says purchase does not guarantee winnings. I am just going to toss this out, but wanted to report it in case anybody else receives this letter and actually sends money.

Through regular postal mail, I received a letter in the mail that was NOT certified, just a plain, regular mail, and I was a winner of a sum of $1,325,000.00!!! And the CASH FUNDS will be paid directly to me by my option of a lump sum check of $1,325,000.00 or a larger sum-amount of $2,000,000.00 to be remitted by annual payments of $66,666.66 per year for 30 years. All I needed to do was pay $11.89 for the Acquisition FEE for the Premium Offer, payable to the ANC, and I was to enclose my remittance by cash, check or money order with my final decision on which option I choose as my payable fee. I tried to call my local BBB but no one has returned my phone call and it has been a day gone by already, so I went online and did a little researching myself. I wish NOT to disclose any photographs due to the fact that my name and address will be exposed, so I will NOT be adding it on at this time. I’m sorry!!! Thank you!!!

I have been playing the Publishers Clearing house sweepstakes faithfully everyday for the past 6 months and entering in all of their million dollar sweepstakes. These are the ONLY sweepstakes that I have been playing or entering in for a chance to win. Im wondering if, this business ANA or Award Notification Commission PO BOX KANSAS CITY, KS 66110 is affiliated with the Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes in ANYWAY, SHAPE OR FORM? And, if it’s linked and part of a bigger scam??? Today when I went to check the mail 8-31-17 I noticed I had recieved a first class letter in the mail from the Commissioner of Judging and Processing Division Award Notification Commision PO BOX 2905 Kansas City, Kansas 66110 . It is the official form of tender no: 13570 Authorized by Larry Hourd. This Official Declaration of Certified Award and Provision of Payment states I have been awarded $1, 325,000.00 single check or a 30 year annuity for the total of $2,000,00.00. This award letter states I have 7 days to reply by MAIL ONLY to return documents and recieve my award. They are requesting I send in a Mandatory $12.99 fee for delivery and $3.00 to Rush Processing. I can send them payment in the form of cash, check or money order and return it in the enclosed envelope provided. This letter appears to look real and is even stamped with a seal. I immediately said "Oh my gosh to my kids, we may have just won a bunch of money ( automatically thinking in my head and linking this to the publishers clearing house entries I have recently submitted) They said "YES Mommy, now we can buy our dream house". I told them I think this could also be part of a huge scam and that I needed to have a professional help me look over the letter better. So I did and I have found out via online google searches that other people who have also recently played the Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes are also recieving these same fraudulent scam letters by mail. I begging someone to please look further into this as to why all these people who are playing the Publishers Clearing House are recieving these same letters stating we have won $2 million dollars but from a different company. They are also requesting money. I am super curious as to how these companies are linked. Im also interested in taking legal action so this can be stopped.

I needed some money, so I entered two sweepstakes offered by ANC and several contests offered by related organizations. They sent mail frequently, and most of the letters required payment of a fee, ostensibly for a piece of jewelry. They sent duplicate mailings often. I stupidly sent check after check because I really wanted to win. When totalled, I had sent them (about ten orgs or so) over $1000. Now I think they are delaying payment to me although they come very close to saying I’ve won, in one case $2M. Their letters ask again and again whether I’m over 18 (I am far past 18), if they have my correct address, and whether I’d choose a 30-year annuity or lump sum payout. It’s ridiculous, but I say to myself "if there’s a chance of winning, I have to go for it." Now I find that the BBB doesn’t even rate them! Have you any suggestions about how I might be awarded at least some of the money I’ve won? I have been told I’m guaranteed at least $10K. I realize I never should have gotten into this. But if there is any way to salvage something, please let me know. Why are these orgs allowed to continue in this way?

I can either have $1,325,000.00 lump sum or $2,000,000.00 with annual payments of $66,666.66 per year for 30 years.

Received letter stating I won $2 million. Requested a one time processing fee of $11.89. Did not sit right with me so went to the internet and searched the company. Only thing I found were complaints about this company. Sorry to hear about all those who sent in the "one time processing fee", only to find out they kept asking for more money.
