POWERHOUSE FINANCIAL INTERNATIONAL CLAIM DEPARTMENT I WAS A VICTIM OF THE RIP OFF, I DID ALL THE PROCIDURES AS THEY ASKED ON THE LETTER. I AM SHAMED OF MYSELF FOR BELIEVING AS A HONEST GUY I AM. I AM STILL FIGHTING WITH MY BANK FOR THE WITHDRAWN I MADE TO PAY THEM OVER WESTERN UNION AND I WILL FIGHT UNTIL I FIND THESE SON OF GOD. MORRISTON Ontario
ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!
POWERHOUSE FINANCIAL INC. (ITs A FRAUD, SCAM)
As the letter says I won 250,000.00 of the North Mega Sweepstakes held on January 5, 2008 in the 2nd category.
I called the #905-783-2525 spoke to Mr. Bill Hensley, he told me that i was a winner that i had to deposit the check to my acc and call him back. Which i did to my washington mutual business acc, the bank approved the check, so i withdrawn the money in the amount of $2,985.00 for the goverment tax, as he asked me too, so i went to the western union and sent the money to Mr. Molly Corona.
Then i called him back as he told me to and gave him the control # from western union, this was around noon.(I HAVE COPY OF EVERYTHING) About 4:00 in the after noon Mr. Bill Hensley called me again saying that he had received the money alright but that i had to pay another fee for state tax that i had to pay for FEDEX in the amount $1,580.00 and that State of TEXAS, CALIFORNIA AND NEW YORK PAY NO TAXES BUT THAT ALL OTHER STATES HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FEDEX TAX, and that i had to send the money to the same person as i described above. SO Thats when i stopped and thought that i was in a scam.
So i called MR. hensley lied told him saiying that i was going to the bank and do all the process on the next business day. Mean while i called my bank and told them the story that this was a fraud/Scam that i got involved, and guess what the bank told me that the check seem to be good but that they needed 5-7 business day to know for sure if the check is good or not. "Oh MY GOD, what a fool i have been" i said.
Then i went to the internet and made a research on there names found nothing, made a search on the company name found nothing until today January 22 and found 2 rip off report with the same issue. So now i am stuck in these days and waiting for the bank response. ( i ll report the rest of the story when this nightmare finishes).
