Standard Financiers Bunk as company sends $2,998.50 only to send back to cover financing to cover bogus winnings of $114,000 from London, England ripoff Canada Ontario
I received this bunk letter that stated I was a random winner of a drawing randomly picked out of London, England and that they were sending me this check of $2,998.50 to cover the financing for the release of the $114,000 that myself and 18 other people were privy to out of a over 3 million dollar win.
The letter went on to say that to retrieve my winnings I needed to take the check and deposit $2,998.50 into my account, wait for it to clear, withdraw it and call her back. I did everything she said and called her back, she instucted me to send the cash money western union to this bogus address and female individual in Canada and call her back when I had a confirmation number of the transaction.
When I did she made this fake promise of calling me back with the transaction number for UPS that I would need when they delivered my check. She constantly told me I'll call you back or I can't find your information or even changing her name at times to avoid telling the truth. At one point I heard her kids in the background! They are truly some bogus, dog eating, fake speech unrecognizable, Indian bi**hes, that are scamming people for everything they have!

Did you wait for the check to clear?

Did you truly wait for the check to clear? If it was a foreign check it could take weeks to clear.
Just because a bank accepts it doesn't mean it is good!! They have no way of telling if it is counterfeit until it bounces back weeks later.
If you did not wait for it to completely clear and you SENT the money and the check bounces you will owe the bank the $2998.50.
If you did wait for it to totally clear before you sent the money - be very careful. You could be a part of a money laundering scheme - the Federal Government takes a very dim view of this.
No matter what you did or what they say you did NOT win any lottery. No lottery in the world, to my knowledge, makes you send them money to get 'your' money.
Good luck.
