Alliance Financial And Trust The Company sent a Check for $4875. And said I won $125,000.00. And to call them to set up payments. Toronto Nationwide
The company sent a letter stating that I won $125,000.00 and a check to cash for $4875.saying this was for taxes to be paid to the government.
When I called to verify this and told the person to send me the rest of my money in a money order he hung up on me.
That is when I got suspicious that this was a bogus company.

I also got a letter in the mail from Alliance Financial and Trust stating the same thing. I called the number and talked to a gentleman from another country and he told me it was legit and to cash the check and call him back to set up a time for him to have Fed-Ex send me the rest of the money. I must tell you that I'm not the kind of person to beleive anything like this. I ALWAYS assume there is a catch but the guy said there wasn't. I still wasn't conviced so I went to my bank and they told me it was bogus and called the bank on the check, they had no account with that institution. I must say I was overly excited that I won but then crushed that someone could do this and get away with it. I still plan on calling them back and telling them I cashed the check to see what they say. Read the letter carefully where they say to be paid either by Western Union or Money Gram "directly to the tax agent."
Be careful.
