Well this number called me many times. Finally I picked up and they ***g up. By reading all of the posts I see it's PCH. I have never even had an account with them. Maybe they're trying to reach me to pull up in their van and give me the 1,000,000.00 check which is probably not real. I don't mean the big one which is of course not real. I mean the whole deal. ;-)
