Complaint Review: Teresa Robinson Nova Star Financial Services & Consultants

I received a very official looking letter from Nova Star Financial Services & Consultants, along with a check for $3,940.00, that also was very official looking, (drawn on Harris, N.A. bank, Chicago, Illinois). The check was to be used to cover administrative taxes and clearance fees. The letter said to call Teresa Robinson at 1-514-577-8220 to activate my check. I checked the phone number and discovered it was a cell phone in Canada. The letter also was mailed from Canada.

Upon further seaching, I found a similar situation on Ripoff Report, from a lady in North Carolina. I just want to add my input, that this Teresa Robinson is working under different company names, and trying to get bank account information from unsuspecting consumers. I did not deposit the check, and am planning to contact my Better Business Bureau and Attorney General here in Maine.
