International Shoppers, Customers, Compensation, and Appreciation Lottery Bonanza Drawing winner of $125,000 came with a check for $3,980.00 and asked me to pre-pay $2980,00 in tax Ontario, Ontario
Got a mail fraud letter today. It stated that I won a second prize of $125,000 and it included a check in the amount of $3,980. I was to cash that check and use the money to pay the taxes due. I was to call 905-598-6612 for instructions on how to wire transfer the $2,980 tax to a tax agent in the UK. The check looked so real and the bank it was drawn on was a real bank (Huntington National; Bank).
I didn't fall for it but wondewr how many others do.
