Libbey Financial Services - Scott Freeman Lottery Fraud - Theft Toledo Ohio
I received a letter stating I had won a lump sum of $10,000 in the "annual Chain-stores Giveback Promo" with a total pot of $320,000 among 31 winners. I was sent an initial check of $2,650 and was instructed to call to have it activated so it could be deposited. Then I was instructed to go to Walmart to send a "test" Money-Gram payment in order to get verification to receive the balance of $7,350.00. They wanted a minimum of $900 sent - they said to use like a family member so that it sounded legit but that gets them access to the transaction ID# and the $900 which they said can be used from the initial check. Just for kicks I deposited the check but have not banked on it just to see what happens. I did look up the bank routing # on the check and it comes back to a JPMorgan Chase Bank account but it is listed as an ACH account. You get a phone# too and I asked if the account was good and was told yes. This needs to be stopped. How many people did these Rip-Offs already scam!

You should have never deposited that phony check into your account. When it bounces, the very LEAST that will happen to you is that you will be charged a returned item fee. If you read a few of the HUNDREDS of reports about this scam here on this site, you will see where MANY people have had their accounts closed by the bank, many have even been charged with bank fraud, and some are in prison now for the same offence. Not a smart thing to do. And yes, THOUSANDS have fallen for this much publicized scam.
