Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
i recieved a letter stating i won the lottery in canada, since i do travel north this seemed excitingly possable. wrong! my first thought was if i cash this check and it is a scam i'll be out the amount of the check plus bank fees if this isnt real, but, if its not real why do this? this cost someone money, where is their profit in this? do they get bank info when this check is returned? i dont get it. i'm having some major medical expenses and this was a bright light. you cant be blessed if you dont accept it when it comes, but when do you know its real or some jack a*s!

How can you "win" a lottery that you don't even remember entering. The answer is you can't because it is a Scam. Hopefully you did not cash this check. Any time you are sent a check basically out of the blue from someone you don't know the first words out of your mouth should be SCAM. You can do one of two things, shread it just like any other junk mail and move on, or turn it into the local authorities. The reason they do it is because it costs them probably under a dollar to print the fake check and send out the letter. They can send hundreds if not thousands of these to people. All it takes is one person to fall for this and they still make out. DON'T be that person....

They use official sounding business names and print their own checks using legitimate bank names and bogus addresses. They get their money when you cash the check and then send them a check for the so-called taxes. That money is going to the scammers not to pay taxes with. They prey on people like you who really need the money. Not everyone will see it as the scam that it is. they deposit the check and write one to pay taxes. Then a week later the check bounces and you are out the money you sent them. As well as the fee for the bad check. When in doubt - throw it out Your bank can usually tell - don't deposit - just take it and ask them about it.
