Mass Mutual Financial Group Mass Mutual Financial Group, North American Utilities, Lotto Regulatory Board Ripoff Vancouver British Columbia
I received the same letter dated 14Aug07. Stated we "are winner of North American Utilities draw held on Monday April 12th, 2007." (Note, 12Apr was NOT on a Monday).
It proceeded to give ticket # adn serial #, stating we have wone $46,500USD which is among $25,234,000 shared by winners. "Our firm has securityed for, the percentage surcharge to be paid as commission on your winning price to the Lotto Regulatory Board, saving you the trouble. The check of $2925.45 USD enclosed cover the charges/fees required to be paid, prior to receiving your winning."
Letter signed by James Mack, Prize Coordinator.
Check enclosed was written on HSBC that apperas to be laser printed on there, Remitter is Liza Johnson (signature dosn't appear to be either of the names mentioned). All other notes are the same as the previous poster.
I immediately did searches on names with no luck, sent a message to HSBC to check validity and then found Rogers Group Financial at the same address, but they are not affiliated. They are researching and pointed me to this site as they had run across it in their research. Apparently there is no Mass Mutual at the address provided.
Looks fishy, but have nothing concrete yet on it.

You have nothing concrete ??? Try reading the hundreds of reports about this scam on this site. Try watching your local news channel, as most of them are running stories on this scam. Try reading your local newspapers, as they are running the same stories. Geeeezzzz.

Need something concrete, search this site for lottery scams. The likely scenario is you will be asked to cash the check and Western Union cash to someone (most likely outside the USA). Weeks later your bank will inform you that the check you deposited was fraudulent. You will owe them the money you withdrew. Don't send them anything, don't call them. Just get rid of it. Good luck.
