Universal Trust And Finance Inc. Super 7 winner, got a check for $4885. Told to cash it and call them back. Pay $2,985 to them for taxes. Ontario
I received a check for $4,885 that looked very legitamate from Universal Trust and Finance Inc. with the name of Wells Fargo Bank and Security
on the check.
There was a phone number to call before cashing the check. I called the number and talked to a "Tom Mark". He told me to deposit the check and call him back.
We were to Moneygram or Western Union $2,985 to them to cover taxes. I did a search on the internet for Universal Trust and came upon this web site that told me it was a fraud and what they were up to. I did not try to cash the check. Thank you.

There was a phone number to call before cashing the check, which I called, and spoke to a Morris Lexington, I asked a few questions, which he didn't like and then he then hung up on me.
I knew then it was fraud and haven't cashed the check.
