[quote=Anonymous]Their whole racket is right there in the name: Publisher's Clearing House. To enter the sweepstakes, you have to buy magazine subscriptions, which they get at a massive discount from the publishers. Every so often, they will send you a letter saying "your name was drawn and you have advanced to the next round, but you have to buy more magazine subscriptions to stay in the game!" If you don't buy more, you're not eligible for the prize. By the end of the year (or however long each game lasts) you'll have bought like 5 magazine subscriptions and spent $50-100. The prize money comes from that cash you gave them to buy subscriptions that cost them pennies, and PCH pockets the remainder. [/quote]
