On August 24th, 2007 I was sent a letter that stated I had won 125,000 dollars and it also included a check for $3850.00.The letter was dated for August, 10 2007. With those gramatical errors. The letter gave me a Reference # and Batch #. It stated that there was a mix up of names and numbers.And that my name was attached to the ticket number 743-2876-634 with the serial nuber5432-46 and drew the "lucky" numbers of 5-10-32-24-14-28 and won the lottery in the 2nd category. And I had been approved for a lump sum pay out of $125,000 in cash credited to the file with reference Number LTX/733569257. It also states that the lottery is from a international lottery with only 20 winners. And then asks you to keep all winning info. confidential until your claim has been processed and my check remitted to me. So that there is nodoubole claiming or unwarranted taking advantage of "this program" by other participants. Then it goes on to explain the reason you are being given the check for $3850.00. All about some Non Resident tax of 2% in the total amount of $2500.00 and Administrative Cost of $950.00. Total = $3850.00. It goes on to tell you how the amount of $125,000.00 less the taxes and administrative costs will be made to your account within 48 hours. And it states that that is the legal time line required for settlements to be paid. As long as you call Sandra or Mike between the hours of 10am- 7pm eastern time and Saturdays 10am- 1pm eastern time. And my claim must be made before the dead line of August 29, 2007. Otherwise the funds would become null and void. Signed, Sincerly, Chris Anderson

My husband, mother and I were excited. So excited that I actually drove to the bank to open a brand new account. I did ask that they look into it first. I had a gut feeling something wasn't quite right. So the nice lady told me to call her in the morning, to find out if there was actually an account with funds to cash this check at Synovus Bank of Tampa Bay in St. Petersburg, FL. Well tomorrow hasn't arrived and I found out for myself, that it was a scam. But now I have the embarrassing pleasure of calling this nice lady back and letting her know it was a scam and apologize for wasting her time. Now the hardest part is going to be breaking the bad news to our 4 children. Who were beyond excited. If the ellusive Sandra or Mike do happen to drop in to see what kind of pain they have caused. I'm Pleading to you Please stop this repulsive behavior. I hope you pay for every thing you have done. You are doing the Devils work and that will get you no where. You may not have gotten any money from me and my family but you almost stole our dreams. We WILL be praying for your souls! And the lord will still bless us and our dreams because we aren't letting you steal our faith. God Bless You.

You'll call the number, and they'll tell you to cash the check and send them the money via Western Union so your money can be released. Once you do that, you'll never hear a thing from them again. In about two weeks the check will come back to the bank as a counterfeit and they'll be looking for you to cover it.
