Gateway Financial Management Group, Douglas Katz Royal British Lotto Scam ripoff Edmonton Alberta
Recieved a letter from the Royal British Lotto stating that I was a winner in their international lottery. Funny thing is I don't play the lottery! The letter was dated Sept. 28, 2006 with Ref:#CDC 832321Z030 Winner Code: FG4482.
It stated that I had one $115,500.00 minus $7,854.00 (6.8%sponors commission) I would end up with a total of $107,646.00.
Also enclosed was a check for $2,996.70 to help with finance the international fees of $2,848.50. Fortunately I was wise enough not to do anything with this letter or check. I do however want people to beware of this scam.
A few things lead me to believe this was a scam.
1: I don't play the Michigan lotto, yet play the British Lotto.
2: the envelope was stamped Canada.
3:The Check was from a North Carolina Food Co. So those were a few things that caught my attention.
Sure it would be nice if it was real I could use the money to pay off some debt, but as they say if it's to good to be true then it's not!
