Complaint Review: President choice financial group

I received a letter from President Choice Financial Group stating that I had won $100,000!  Seemed too good to be true...and it is.  After careful research, the bank that wrote the check that was also enclosed said that it was a scam.  Just wanted to let others know of this scam, so no one loses money!  Hopefully these scammers will be caught soon enough and receive just punishment for their crimes.  I have attached the letter that I received to let others see that it's too good to be true.
