Century Specialties Inc I received a letter with claim no: WA/SDH-0101 stating that I won $250,000.00. There was a check from an "Affiliate" for $3980.00 to be cashed after speaking with a "claim Agent" at 1-905-781-1645. Ontario
The most compelling thing about this scam was that there was a check that had all of the security features of an authentic check. At the top of the check there was an Affiliate North American company's name. This check in the amount of $3980.00 was supposedly for the "sole purpose of payment of applicable Government Taxes" on my "big winnings".
I was warned not to attempt to cash the check without contacting my "claim agent" (red flag). My assigned claim agent was Lewis McGregor at 1 905 781 1645 (there was no answer)(second red flag). So I looked up the affiliate company and gave them a call. The owner of the company was very pleasant and informed me that he had similar calls beginning on Friday 10th December(stop sign). Measures have been taken to protect his company's assets.
I have a great appreciation and respect for that role my Bank plays in protecting my family from fraud.
