Able Financial Services I recieved a letter and a check saying that I had won money. To my stupidity I deposited the check into my account last week. Luckily I did not money gram any money to Debra Sage. The money sat in my account while I waited for the check to clear. This morning I was informed that the check was returned and was classified as a stolen/fraudulant check. Watch out for these people. Sparroy Bush, New York
I was sent a check by Able FInancial Services saying that I had won a sweepstakes and they included a check from a bank payable to me. I took the check to my bank and they said that the check was a real check. I also called the bank that the check was issued from and they said that it was a legitimate check and funds were available for the check to clear. I really thought that I had won some money. Well luckily I let the money sit in my account instead of wiring the money that was suppose to cover my "taxes" on the money that I had won. So I waited 1 1/2 weeks and today I was informed from my bank that the check had been returned and they said that it was considered a fraudulant/forged check. So the money was going to be taken back out of my account. So what these people are doing is having you deposit this check and then when the funds are released they are having you wire them money, there trick is however that weeks after you have wired the money the check is then returned and you are stuck owing alot of money to your bank. This is so sad that people would prey on people that are desperate in this economy to pay their bills and provide a Christmas for their children. My husband called them and they hung up the phone on him and I have tried several times and they aren't answering. The man that says he is Chris Miller has a heavy Indian accent.

THE CHECK ITSELF WAS THE RED FLAG IT WAS A SCAM

Legitimate lotteries and sweepstakes do not send checks to pay fees and or taxes with and if you had looked here before depositing it - YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS A SCAM! Taxes and fees are removed before you ever see a dime in a legitimate lottery or sweepstakes. Legitimate Mystery Shopping never sends checks for several thousand dollars to just anyone, you have to be affiliated with a legitimate Mystery Shopping service, apply for and get hired before any money is ever sent. You are then expecting a check from the business - not the Mystery Shopping service. The whole point was to get you to wire the money before you discovered the check was bogus. The scammers prey on people who do not stop to think first.
