UNITED TRUST AND FINANCE INC. I received a winning letter and a check for $4885.00. Morriston, Ontario
Today in the mail I received an ominous white business size envelope. It had my name and home address affixed to it via a white 2.5" L x 1" W label. The envelope contained no return address but had a Canadian stamp.
Over the stamp which says, "CANADA 98" it states on the first line: 090820 22:02 M4L 3TD D48 On the second line: www.canadapost.ca On the third line: www.postescanada.ca
The letter states (I've retyped here, and the spelling is exactly as on letter):

Do not call, do not cash the check

Did you enter the Super 7 contest (or whatever it was)? Even if you did, this is not a winner (there are many similar examples of this on this site).
This is what will happen. You will call the number and a great guy will tell you about your winnings. They will tell you to cash the check and send them another, from your account to "pay the taxes". I think you said the amount was nearly 3K. A few weeks later, you will get an overdraft from your bank and discover the check bounced or was to an invalid account. You just got taken and are now out the "taxes" and a ton of overdraft fees. The guy who got the moneygram or western union, on the other hand, will be enjoying drinks on the beach thanks to your generosity.
If it seems to good to be true, it is.
