I too made additional calls/emails:
1. Olson Research who stated they too have received calls asking if it is legit because the letterhead is the same as on their website. They stated it is false and asked if we please report to the USPS Investigators.
2. I was contacted via txt from this so called company Richard, who asked me to try and redeposit check that there are enough funds. I said ok with no intention of depositing. I then called SunTrust who stated account is still closed. The cell phone being used is viable, traceable and they are not smart enough to refrain from txting!
3. I went to USPS who stated although this person sent mail via their express mail system, and that there is proof it was done with intent to defraud, they do not have the manpower to do anything and the best option is to throw it away. I have filed further requests with my congress representative who stated they will take it seriously and process after the 1st of January.
Will keep everyone updated.
