I received a letter in the mail yesterday, and it said that I was a winner in the "Compensation Draw" organized for all customers of the major stores in U.S.A. and Canada. (walmart, sears, home depot, safeway.. etc) in conjunction with the Sweepstakes association of North America.

It said my name was attached to an entry slip with the winning lucky number and serial number.

they want me to deposit the check in my account, then send a money gram to a Vanessa Trey to pay the taxes on my winnings. UM OK.. how about NO!

If anyone has any information on this scam I would be glad to join in and get these people prosecuted. I work at a law office and have access to a variety of lawyers.

What a horrible scam to play on people, me and my fiance are currently paying for a wedding on a huge budget, and this is just a slap in the face to us. We work so hard for our money,and we are doing our best to put together a wedding for ourselves and this is just heartbreaking!

I can comprehend a little of your story, but my sitaution is a bit difference I recieved a phone call, and the guy wanted me too send him money via western union or money gram, the thing is with the scammers is their from CANADA, but somehow has U S address and somehow prehaps they get away with these kind of scam on daily bases, just say you would have went along with the scam and deposit the check and once they debit the account for the amount of funds for taxes, I bet you they would have took all the money and the bank wouldn't being able too track which way the money went and on some cases they can but if they can its nothing they can do about it because for one canadian money doesn't value the same amount as U S, so the thing is RESEARCH, I almost got scam and I mean I came very close but I research the internet and at first I couldn't find anything but a website it look legitimated so everything was all well but it wasn't until I ran across this website "THANK GOD FOR RIPOFFREPORT" and I mean about 10 peoples had be scam by these individuals, so they provided me with a 1800 number to call once I had money gram the money, but you can imagine the kind of phone call I gave them but, they was also VERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY RUDE peoples they claim not too no what I was talking about and that their or indeed a legit company, but anyways I filed report with BBB, you name it I did it I was furious because hear it I go to work everyday and try too make a honest living and you got people trying too scam you and getting away with it. THE BOTTOM LINE IS IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN ITS NOT! I'm glad you didn't deposit the check never do business with CANADA OR ANY FORIEGN COUNTRY UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR SURE WHO THERE ARE.
