Evan Jenkins Of Scotia Financial Company ripoff of fruadulent lotto winnings Halifax Nova Scotia
I recieved a Certificate of Award from Evan Jenkins of Scotia Financial Company, subsidiary of Euro Lotto Corporation; sayiny that I had won $65,000 thru them drawing my name thru the North Amercan Sweepstakes. There was a check for $1,965.50 enclosed in the letter. Everytime I tried ot call Evan he was not in his office so someone else would talk to me. everyone tole me the same thing to cash the check to pay for my taxes on the money I had won and to send it to Harry Patricks or Peter Law at Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3H1A1 and I would get the rest of my money within 24 hrs. Icalled on eof the numbers on the check the girl said it was good, I cashed the check and that woman had the check verified. when I went to wal-Mart to get a money gram to send to those people i was told of alot of people getting ripped off. i came home and checked on the computer and found out it is a rip off. Am I going to be responsible for that check I cashed or will the Chase Bank of Mathatton be responsible, they answered the phone like it was the bank and the woman that cashed my check wrote the woman's name down that verfied the check??

There's a sucker born every minute. You're darned well going to have to pay back that money! That was a legitimate check but they've put a stop payment on it. Anyone who falls for these too-good-to-be-true scams deserves what they get! What did you think? Your long lost Uncle Elmer died and left you the money?

I hope you didn't send the money. You'll need it to pay back your bank once the check is returned. If your bank eats the fraud, instead of taking the money away from you, it will be a nice gesture on their part. They are not legally responsible. You need to file with your police. Quickly, so that maybe they can track the criminals. There are NO lotteries in Canada that can be won by non-Canadians. In Canada, lottery winnings are not subject to tax. Good luck.
