Payment Trust Services, Drawn On Cadence Capital Management, Lottery Scam, Postal fraud, Reader Digest, Publishers Clearing House, Sweepstakes, Lotto ripoff Nationwide
Got a letter in the mail today, second time I've gotten one like this, different company. Says it's from Payment Trust Services, postmark on the outside of the envelope is from Canada, Bank this is drawn on is National City Bank of Pensylvania. Check amount is $2970.00.
Letter included says "shows you as the lucky winner of unclaimed prize money in the amount of $52,297.00 USD. The system indicated that you won the prize in the third category draw."
------
This international law ensures that a winner pays a processing fee before the funds are released. The same law prevents you from paying with your personal money but from your winning money; the first installment of $2,970.00 USD should be used for the payment of the process fee of $2570.00
----------
Please take advantage of this golden opportunity by contacting one of our claims agents at 1-204-962-7031 Mon-Fre 9am-8pm, Sat 9am-6pm EST, upon receipt of this notification.
Please note that all unclaimed prize money will be donated to a charity organization.

On the top of this letter is says:
Sponsor: Readers Digest, Publishers Clearing House, Sweepstakes, Lotto
I've gotten something like this before but last time it was made out to my fake name (my internet alias I use sometimes) and that's what put up the red flag for me.
I was told the way these things work is that this company will ask you to cash this check and then send them the specified fee. You put the money in the mail to them the day the check is cashed and then a few days later, you find out this is a stolen check and your bank comes back to you for these uncollected funds and now you're out the $2900 or what ever dollars the check was for.
It's so sad people send these out and you know, some people are going to fall for it. I just wish we could stop these mean people.
