Waterhouse Securities Inc. Shoppers Sweepstakes fraud Morriston Ontario
I received a letter in an envelope with no return address stating I've won the Shoppers Sweepstakes for $250,000. US Dollars. Inside the letter a check written on a Wells Fargo bank in Van Wert, OH for $4,980. Instructions state to call the 1-905-598-5656 # before cashing/depositing the check. Tax amount is $2,995 US Dollars. Make a payment w a moneygram for the $2,995. amount.
Says I was selected by a random computer ballot system drawn from over 50,000 names. Gives me a ticket serial number, a lucky winning #.
The contact person name is Barbara Jones and letter is signed by Paul Thomas (promotion manager).
I didn't call the number and I'm going to Wells Fargo bank branch near me to make them aware someone's fraudulently using their checks to rip people off.
