Applegate Securities Inc Bob Morris and Mary Long can take Winning Fake Claim No: WA/SDH - 101 and Shove it where the sun don't shine! Montreal ONTARIO Massachusetts
I received this past weekend the same letter from Applegate Securities as a declaired winner of the Shoppers Sweepstakes on Dec. 5th 2008. My Claim # was WA/SDH - 0101, with a serial #498561256.
I too was entitled to the sum of $250,000 US Dollars, from the $5 million and was among 20 other declaired winners from random computer ballot drawn from over 50,000 names. My check was for $4,995.00 and I also was to send $2,995.00 in a MoneyGram or Western Union to cover the taxes for my BIG winnings.
As the old saying goes "If it looks like its too good to be true then it probally is!" This is truly one of those. Before calling the # I started with my check from Applegate Securities 249 Oceana Way Norwood, MA 02062. (Boston Private Bank & Trust Co) So I started there on line checking for existance of this place & bank in Massachusetts. Called BBB located in Mass. to find out further no such place or company. They turned me over to US Postal Service (ph# 877-876-2455) to report fraudlent mail/check sent to me also.
I then did as one of your other reporters here and tried call good ol' Bob Morris at the ph#. I also got the message that there is no more room to record messages. Thank God for the internet and this web site to report frauds like these. In this tough economy I also was excieted ready to jump at this, thinking of the financial help it could bring. I just hope there are not many others who are out $3,000.
