Liberty Financial Incorporated Lottery, Resources management and Payment Verification, Los Angeles California
Received a letter from Liberty Financial Incorporated saying I had won $350,000 in a lottery drawing on 3/10/2014. Included was a check from "Aetna Life Insurance Company" for $4,350.00. (Aetna has confirmed this as a scam).
Instructions were to call and "start my claim processing and activate my check". Also, "Please do not act on this notice until you contact your claims agent to avoid cases of misappropriation and mishandling of prize monies". (HA!)
The purpose of the check was to "help me pay for the processing fee" which was to be $3,850.00. (guess the extra $500.00 is a "bonus"?)
