Complaint Review: Capital One Securities

I received a letter in the mail titled "winning final notification," as well as a very authentic looking check for 4993.00. The letter stated that I was one of 20 winners whose names were selected randomly after I supposedly entered into a "shoppers sweepstakes." The letter stated that the check was for the purpose of paying the taxes that would be owed on the 250,000.00 winnings. It instructed me to call my claim agent Nicky Boyd back within 5 days BEFORE cashing the check. Embarassed to say, I attempted to call the number back (1-416-822-9196) and it just rang and eventually a message played that stated "the customer is unavailable." This prompted me to investigate this company name on the internet. Thank God for this site. I HATE PEOPLE WHO STEAL!!!!
