Complaint Review: Prudence Financial

I was sent a letter in the mail with a check enclosed stating that my name was drawn June 1,2007 for unclaimed prize money in the amount of 46,650 and if I did not respond by June 25,2007 prize money would be forfeited.
The check was in the amount of 2,650 cashable to me only I was given reference number 7348/07 and was told to keep private until funds was released.My claim agent Eric Phillips phone number 604-618-8547 informed me to go to the nearest check cashing place and cash the check when i was finished with that go to a walmart and money gram it to him. Then to let him know that I have sent the money to him. So he could sent 2 security officers to my house with the rest of the money.

When I asked him if I could cash the check and give the officers the money to return to him he said no you have to send it before the go there. He said they were already in my area. I felt that something was wrong so I called my lawyer to look into it. He told me that there is no matching address with telephone number neither the name of the company.
