HSBC FINANCIAL GROUP JARVIS PINTO MAILED ME A CHECK AS PART PMT ON WINNINGS OF $354,000...WAS TO MAIL "NON-RESIDENTIAL TAX" TO ANNIE FOSTER IN ALBANY, NY AFTER DEPOSITING CHECK FOR INITIAL PAYMENT. I CALLED THE PAYOR ON THE CHECK WHO NEW YORK, New York
I received a check enclosed with a letter from HSBC FINANCIAL GROUP. I called the person who was to be contacted for instructions. I was told to deposit the check, which was the initial payment on winnings of $354,000. After making the deposit I was to send a cashier's check in the amount of $2,400 for non-residential taxes to someone in Albany, NY.
Instead, I called 1411 and got the phone number of the payor who told me this was a scam (I already figured that out) and to report it to the F.T.C. which I did. I will also take it to local law enforcement on the morrow so they will be advised as well.
Shame on them, trying to rip off people rather than go to work honestly.
