UBC Financial Services/ Canada; Life Investors Ins. Co. Of America Received letter announcing I had won $250,000 in the Sweepstakes Association of North America. I also was given a check for $4540.00 and told to send $3660.00 to Mary Thompson 220 Bedford Road; Calgary, Alberta. Canada and then they would send me my certified check via UPS or Fed Ex. The check is a very legitamate looking check. Calgary, Alberta Canada
Winning the Sweepstakes Association of North America was a total surprise to me, since I had not filled out any entry forms. That is the first clue to the scam, if you didn't enter, how can you win? They want you to send money in order to collect your winnings. Second clue, why don't they deduct the expenses and send you the balance? By the time the check that they sent you and told you to deposit, (and send them the cash) is returned, it is too late to do anything but kiss your money goodbye and know you have been had!
