My boyfriend recieved a letter saying he had won $40,000 from International Lottery, INC. He called and they said they would send him a cashier's check to cover the taxes. He recieved it in the mail today in the amount of $3,534.13. It is drawn on First Tennessee (Bank) I assume it is a bank. The check only has First Tennessee on it. We aren't sure what to do. The letter inclosed with the check said to call a Florida number during business hours. Cannot do this til Monday but just curious if this is legit??!!??!!

I rec. a check today in the mail and of course knew it could not be true. So I searched and found this. Was sure it was a scam.

I was sent a check for $4,975.oo and was told to send $3,600.00 to some one in Canada for taxes then they would send the balance of the $100,000 to me. I didn't send the $3,600 because it looked to good to be true and it looks that way from all the information that I have found.

I received a check from Royal British Random Lotto for 2997.80 and instructed to call Brenda Rogers Of Zenith Financial Management for instructions on how to claim my winnings in the amount of $115,500.00.
The instructions are to deposit the check in my account,wait for it to clear,then send the amount of 2846.50 via Western Union to Heather Rowland at some address in Canada. The amount left over is to be used for charges due for the western union wire.Once they receive the processing fee of 2846.50 they then in turn will send me a cahiers check in the amount of the winnings within 48 hours. The check was issued by LMR Plastics.I'm taking my check to the State Attorney's Office and they can deal with it and with these sons of bitches.
These people need to be found and shot! Who do they think they are playing with people's emotions.

I received a so-called "Award Certificate" and a check today in the mail. I am almost certain it is a scam. The check is from some poor trucking company in Michigan. The letter is from ROYAL BRITTISH LOTTO and says,


"We are pleased to inform you that after the just concluded ROYAL BRITISH RANDOM LOTTO held in London, England, that you emerged as one of the winners of the British Random Draws International.

Your name attached to ticket number 704-8043 with serial number 264-15126 drew the lucky numbers of 18-32-9-25-37 which subsquently won the lottery in the third category. You have therefore been approved for the lump sum of $115,500.00 USD This os from a total cash prize of $2,450,500.00USD shared among 23 international winners in different categories. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Assistance check of $2,995.60 is enclosed to enable you finance the international clearance fees of $2,844.50. Your clearance fee should be remitted to our designated North American Agent.

I like the part where they ask to keep it quiet from the public!!!! That sounds really professional!
Interesting stuff! I'd like to see these people caught. Who knows what their true intentions are. Apparently they don't mind having a cold black soul!
They need to be kept by themselves where they cant infect poor honest people with their discustingness!
