Ist Capital Mutual Services, Noth American Pool Prize sent check with watermark for $4,385 stating that i won $175,000 cash check wire money for the rest of the winnings RIPOFF Ontario Ontario
I received a letter stating that I had won $175,000 in the North American Prize Pool. The company sent a cashiers check for $4,385. The check had a watermark on it.
I was instructed to call the agent and they would tell me the process of how to get my money. I was told to deposit the check into my account. When it cleared I was told to wire $3,965 for fees from the local Wal-Mart.
I did this and called the agent back, at this time she told that she had received the wire and that the rest of the money would be fedex to my house in two days.
I received a phone call today from them saying that I had to pay another $550 for state taxes. I told them that was never told to me. I told them to deduct it from my winnings, they said you have to pay it before I get my winnings.
So the agent said well then we will only make you pay $350 since it wasn't told to you that it was $550. I told them I wanted the $4,385 back. I also stated that I was forfeting my winnings.
