Complaint Review: International Publishers Sweepstakes Aka: Trans Credit Financial

I recieved a letter from the International Publishers Sweepstakes, aka: Trans Credit Financial stating that I had won 82,000. They also had put a check in the envelope that was made out to me for 2,890.00 that is soposed to be used for administrative payment and clearance fee's. They stated that I needed to call my account representative Ms. Stacy Lofton at 1-250-797-0852 before cashing the check. She was not there when I called. I also called the bank on the check to see if it was real. They said it was ligit but I needed to call the number in the letter. A little funny!!!

What really caught my eye was that there was no return address on the envelope. This seemed a little to good to be true and so I started doing an internet check on this company and came across a report on here about the same company. I am so glad that I found this site because it saved me from a scam from this sweepstakes and saved my money that they would have probably took without any care or consideration of me. Please beware if you recieve this same letter. If I hadn't come across the report on this site about this company, I could have fallen and became a victim of them.
