Global Prize I GOT ROOOOBBED FOR $1800 by Global Prize Thunder Bay Ontario Canada
My girlfriend recieved a letter in the mail from Global Prize that contained a legitemate looking check for $1800 so she asked me if she could cash it in my account since she didnt have one. I figured if it was a bad check the bank would not cash it THAT'S THEIR JOB! But i was terribly wrong! I allow the check to clear and go back and ask about. there was no problem the check cleared and we got the cash. the letter instructed me to take the money to a western union and send it to an address that was supposed to be some place to pay the tax on the lump sum payout of $45000. I sent the money and even got a confirmation # from Global (i spoke with a man named John Bitty). He seemed like a decent man on the phone but i would be too if someone was sending me $1800 for nothing! i was informed by John that i would be recieving the check for the rest of the money in a day or 2. Instead i got a call from PNC bank basicly telling me your screwed theres nothing they can do to help me. Correct me if im wrong but #1 they should have caught this and#2 dont banks have insurance for things like this. banks are supposed to protect peoples money, but thats ok! i was informed by PNC that i would never be able to get a bank account anywhere ever again unless i came up with the money in a couple of weeks. Moral of the story BE CAREFUL WHO YOU TRUST! and p.s. Global Prize, John Bitty and PNC bank, F#@K you!
