I've listened to many of Mistress Scambaits' Publisher's Clearing House programs, so when I saw a PCH email in Cammy's inbox, I was keen to take them on!
The scammer's emails are date-stamped; my comments are in bold.
21 December 2022 I trust you are doing great with your family, I'm John and this is the third time I'm contacting you regarding this very vital information to you from PCH Publishers Clearing House global sweepstakes email lottery. I will give you further details when i read from you. I wait your reply as soon as possible so kindly get back to me. EMAIL Address: REDACTED
Cammy finds this email puzzling.
Dear PCH Lottery I don't understand your email. I've never had anything published and I don't buy lottery tickets. So please explain. Regards Camille White

Some random thoughts. It seems to me the PCH guys are quite chatty, which leads to extended baits, rants, and other forms of madness. Getting multiple scambaiters involved and pitting PCH scammer versus PCH scammer increases the odds of a long bait. Mistress Scambait's recent work is showing a more sophisticated form of scambaiting, and the results are the hilarious.

Cammy answered candidly.
Dear John Those are so BORING! Anyway, I don't need books on how to become a millionaire, I'm already worth a million. I'll take a cheque please. Send it to my address. Camille White
I don't expect an answer from "John" for a couple of days at least.

But it went to spam! The next day, another arrival in spam gave me an idea.
28 December
I am a Diplomat Agent. Mr. Wolf J. Flywheel. How are you today, I hope you are fine by the grace of God? I have never heard from you, I hope all is well with you, I am sending you this mail again as a REMINDER and to have your consent regarding your consignment box. Because I can't understand your recent silence towards me at this very stage. I begged the Customs officer to allow me to go with your Package box but he refused because your package box contained a lot of the Money. I don't want to abandon the consignment box without delivering it to you. It's very risky for me to abandon the box in the airport. I contacted my wife over there in London and pleaded for your financial assistance but she does not have the cash available, she promised to assist you with the sum of $100 so that you will be able to send the remaining balance of $100.00 so that we can obtain the airport security clearance. Please I am begging you with the name of God to send the $100.00 To clear out the box and continue my journey to your home and hand over the box to you before I take my leave back to London. Please do everything possible to send the remaining balance $100.00 today okay. Because I have stayed more than my initial agreement like usual with my family and my wife is not happy about it. I appreciate my wife's efforts so that I will deliver your consignment box and go back to my family because it affects me most, I have spent all the money with me for my hotel expenses. and I have other business to attend to in Australia. If you will not send the remaining balance $100.00 between now and TOMORROW I will re-confirm back my flight schedule to London and leave your consignment box with the airport authority because I have tried my best to complete this delivery. I am writing to inform you that the Airport Security Clearance Certificate must to be secured from the office of the Customs in UK, because that is the only office that will issue you the original Airport Security Clearance Certificate of this funds since the fund was originated from UK, London. So you are hereby advised to send the $100.00 through Apple card, or I will give you Bitcoin Address to send it, so i can forward it to the customs head office for them to Cash up the money, secure the Airport Security Clearance Certificate and direct it over here so that i will clear out the box and continue my journey to your home to delivery the treasure box to you. As i stated send it through Apple Card. $100 only. Or ask for Bitcoin Address: I will get everything done today with the Customs officer and deliver your consignment to you without subjecting additional fees and will take 7hrs to arrive at your registered address. You have my words. So proceed and send us the $100 Through Apple Card. immediately. Yours sincerely Regards Wolf J. Flywheel
Cammy is puzzled and angry.
Mr Flywheel What the fuck? What consignment box of money? You're bringing me a cheque! That's what I chose and John agreed! I'm not happy with this! You are so getting fired! Camille White
The next day, she complains to Dear John.
Dear John Nothing from ROBERT E LEE, no, but I did get panic party from Wolf J. Flywheel claiming he's stuck in customs! He said they wouldn't let him bring the consignment box because it's... get this; full of money. What the fuck is going on? Camille White
John takes the news calmly.
29 December Kindly send me his message to you?
Cammy forwards Wolf J. Flywheel's email, with him in the cc line.
Dear John Here it is. I didn't think Fedex could use diplomats. I already cussed him out, by the way. Camille White
29 December Regards to your mail. Kindly not attend to this mail is not from us
New Year's Eve, and Cammy is unhappy with progress.
Dear John If he's not with Fedex, then where the fuck is Fedex? They haven't written to me! Camille White

Dear John answers Cammy's question, but not in a good way.
31 December They are waiting for your payment!@
Cammy isn't happy, and explains, but not in a friendly way.
Dear John What payment? They haven't asked me to pay anything! Helvete, they haven't even bothered to write to me in the first place. Camille White

PCH guy goes for minimalism...
31 December They are waiting for your payment!@
New Year's Morning, and Cammy is not in the mood (slightly hung over, most likely).
Dear John What payment? They haven't asked me to pay anything! Helvete, they haven't even bothered to write to me in the first place. Camille White
PCH guy goes more minimalist.

Yep, the same email as last time... and once again it arrived in spam.
Cammy, being a ditz, didn't see it, because she usually clears spam without looking at it. A scornful email will be sent to PCH in due course.

Cammy's waited a week and a day and her patience has run out. Emphasis is in the original and the "Dead John" isn't a misprint.
Dead John I wrote to ROBERT E. LEE on 7 January. It's been eight days now and he hasn't got back to me. Is he serious? Are you? Camille White
Will ROBERT E. LEE reply? If so, will his reply go into spam?

ROBERT E. LEE did reply, on the same day as it happened, and it was brief, and it did go into spam as predicted.
15 January I told you that the fee is 150$
Come the 18th, and Cammy gets waspish.
Dear John If the Fedex guy doesn't get back to me before Monday next week, I'll know this is all one big stupid joke! Camille White

18 July The fee is 150$ to pay kindly purchase Steam wallet gift card
I think he forgot which one he was supposed to be. Cammy replies even more waspishly.
I don't give a fuck for what you say about Fedex's fees! They fucking well tell about their fees, not you! Comprendo, flybait? Camille White

Looks like they've given up. Oh well.
Cammy gives her candid opinion of PCH and Fedex.
OK, I get it, assholes. It was all a stupid prank. Well, fuck the whole lot of you. It's not like I needed money, we've got millions already. So go fuck your asses with shotguns.
Given their record of apathy, I'm not expecting anything in return.
