Excel Resources Shopping Sweepstakes Lottery Ripoff Toronto Ontario
I recieved a letter that said
"Dear Winner,
We are pleased to inform you that you are one the declared winners of the INTERNATIONAL SHOPPING SWEEPSTAKES LOTTERY promotions held on January 28th 2009 in the 2nd category.
You are therefore entitled to the sum of $245,000.00 US dollars. This is from a total prize money of 4,900,000.00 US dollars that was shared and presented among 20 declared winners.

Please do not attempt to use this check until you call and speak with the claim agent MR. JEFF STEVENS at 1-905-462-5688 for further clarification and instructions on claiming your winning."
Now tell me that doesn't sound fishing...I just wanted to let people know about this rip off/scam...I must admit that I called the man and spoke with this man...what really got me is the fact that he said I had to send it into my bank account and call him to let him know it was done so he could get the account number to release the funds gave it all away.
If it was real you would have been able to take it to the bank and cash it, then get a money order and send it to the tax agent...
