I also received a BONANZA 2000 British Random Draws WINNING CERTIFICATE- Total $85,500.00 - check enclosed was for $2996.85 to "finance the international clearance fees of $2845.40." I'm asked only to conatact my "North American Agent" named Lisa Jordan, of GATEWAY FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SERVICES at 45 Gordon Street., Suite 102, Edmonton, AB, an accredited agenc to british random lotto at Tel: 1-780-695-4378. When I call, it says that customer is busy. I also called Mercer Industries, Inc, where the check was drawn, but there was no answer yet. It said there were 17 international winners, so far I've seen 3 others posted on this site.
The Lotto was British, the postmark is Canadian, and the check is drawn off an Oregon Account. It seems really fishy to me & I want to know exactly what's going on.

I received a letter stating i won some money and i got a check to pay my with holding tax (any time you win a large amount they are supposed to keep the with holding tax) i was supposed to cash the check and send half of that in to an address to recieve the rest of the money. my bank says the check is real and it can take up to 7 days to clear. i always sign up to win things but never if i have to give any important numbers. i never give out my socail or card numbers so if this check clears, and the money is in my account, and i dont have to use my own money, how do i know its a scam?

I received a check for the ammount of $2,990.00 from the Switzerland lottery in which I cashed at the CoAmerica Bank last week. I called the telephone number that was listed on the paper that was inclosed with the check. The telephone caller id said (alberta) as in alberta Canada I guess. Everything checked out it seemed. The person I talked to said to contact kendra beatles. I will try to contact her on monday. Looking at the online scam literature, I am feeling like I have been scamed for sure. I used the cash to pay bills. Am I in trouble? What protective measures should I take from this point?
