I just got a check in the mail from the NORTH-AMERICAN SWEEPSTAKES LOTTERY for $4,900 that will be deducted from the 100,000 the i have won. I am suppose to be using $2,895 of the check sent to me to pay for taxes on my winnings through moneygram. But I am not to cash the check until I contact a claim agent whose name is NATASHA RIMS at 1-519-991-0036 to clarify and get instructions on claiming my $100,000. The letter was written by someone by the name of Micheal Anderson.

I'm reported another lotto scam, I was scam. The letter said i had won 85,000. A check was enclosed with the letter. It stated to deposit the check into my checking acct. So I did that, now my checking acct is overdrawn for that amt. My contact person names was Debra Thom, phone no#1204-951-4951. She told me to deposit the check ,wait for it to clear, withdraw the check and moneygram it to Victoria Sims, at 2916 Silver St., Ottawa, Canada. If anyone who lives in that area, and is reading this. Please contact the police, because they are still at large , I just did this a couple of days ago. So the authorities just maybe able to catch up with them.

I received a check for $1495.00 from Evergreen American Corp out of Jersey City, NJ, and was given a number to call before cashing. I have not been able to get ahold of anyone to direct me on this lottery notice check. Are they some kind of scam?
2006-07-27 09:52:38 -
This is a scam. I received letter with check for $2,995, being the international clearance fee to collect a winning of $80,199. I opened a new account at a different bank so just in case this was a scam they would not have my personal banking info. Well long story short and alot of aggravation the check was counterfeit. I'm not in trouble with the bank because I did not withdraw the funds before the check was processed. The bank sent check back to me with counterfeit stamped on it. I also received letter from Genworth Financial, where the check was drawn on, a letter indicating to me that the check was a fraudalent. The other thing I just found out today is that all my calls to this cell number have been charged to me for a total of $28.91. That's was I am out at this time. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. IT IS A SCAM.

When I got my check I was like cool $2,900 buckaroos and some change!! Wow, what a day!! My over-payment for my house taxes and other fees check showed the same day for $1,400 and some change too. I was really pumped!!! About $3,500 on the same day!! Damn, life is good. The second I showed my wife the check she laughed. I was like...uh what the hell?? She said thats a scam, rip it up. We both went up stairs, got online and about 2 minutes we knew it was. There went my bubble I had of joy!! Leave it to a female (again) to break out the pin burst my bubble and bring me back to earth. Damn I love her!!!
Peace out
