North American Retailers Guilds, CH Robinson Company, Brian Glendale, Gary S Welles, Nicole Hamilton Sent Fraudulant check for $3990.00 and a letter with winnings of $150,000 to be send by fed ex after taxes of $2920 are paid with the check. Eden Prairie Minnesota
I received a letter and a check saying I won a sweepstakes for $150,000. The check is for $3990.00 and $2920 is to be sent for the taxes. Upon receiving the check the letter says to call Nicole Hamilton at 647-219-4670 to activate my check. THe number is actually a cell phone in Toronto, Ontario in Canada. The stamp on the letter says Canada 98 on it. The fax is a land line in Seattle 2065-202-6365 and the company name on the letter is C.H. Robinson Company 147 Charlson Rd Eden Prairie, MN 55348. This is on a road with no visible buildings. Check google maps satelite view to see for yourself. The check looks real and is drawn from Union Bank of California. I called Union Bank of California and the account is not real.
***************Please do not fall for this scam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The last part of the letter states that you must fax the Western Union payment receipt to 206-202-6365. This is clearly so they can retrieve the money. Do not deposit this check and please do file your own report.
