I received a letter from Logic Security Group stating that I was a winner of the De-Lotto Switzerland Sweepstakes held on 1/5/2010. I was told that I was entitled to $250,000 form a total prize of 9 Million Dollars.
I received a check for 4,989,which was stated to be part of my winning with the sole purpose of being able to pay for the applicable government taxes. The letter stated taht I was required to pay $2,987.00 for the government tax and insurance. This was to be paid by western union directly to the tax agent.
The letter stated I wold recived my final check for $245,011 after the winning was processed and would be delivered by FedEx. Instructions said not to use the enclosed "official" check until I called Mr. David Coleman at 011-44-775-861-1798 within 5 business days.

For your information- I contacted the bank to file a fraud report and the security department was very grateful for the contact and asked me to send them the letter and check. They also asked me to tell anyoine else who receive a simillar letter to send it to them, regardless of what bank on the check. This is helpful in their investigation. I'm trying to help others. Sarcastic comments are not what this site is about.
