Mayfair Enterprises - Global Financial Letter arrived Won prize. International drawing. $2900 cashier check (bogus). Just send us money via WU for taxes Duh! Hope no one does! Montreal Quebec
I recieved a letter in the mail with a hand-written address on the envelope. No return address but was postal stamped from Canada.
Inside was a letter from a company called Mayfair Enterprises with a bogus cashier's check for $2900.00. The letter stated it was a prize claim notification and that I had won $135,000.00 in some international sweepstakes.
The check was drawn on Western Massachusetts Fcu in Chicopee,Ma. I looked the credit union up on the internet and they do exist, but the check is obviously a fraud.
The letter goes on to tell me that the $2900.00 check is to pay for non resident government service tax. All I need do is call the number listed and talk with my client care manager (L. Smith?) to recieve further instructions.
Then I'm supposed to deposit the check in my account and send them a Western Union check for $2350.00 to pay the taxes. Then they will issue the $135,000.00 dollars to me.
If they can take the money from the winnings to send me a check to pay the taxes, why can't they just take the taxes from the winnings and send me the rest. Very, very fishy.
