Worldwide Financial Services Dba Group Of Publishers Sweepstakes International Receipt of Letter Re: Award Notivication Final Notice from the International Promotions/Prize Award Dept. Claiming I won a lottery amount of $85,000, w/check encl. of $2400.00 that would be deducted from my "cash prize" to repay 10% of fees. Kelowna, British Columbia, V1Y 1H7Kelowna V1Y 1H7Kelowna British Columbia
I received a letter informing me that I am a winner (bold faced letters in winner) in the international promotions/prize sweepstakes lottery program. This lottery waas suposedly held on December 2nd, 2007. The letter stated that my name was attached to a ticket number with a serial number which drew the lucky numbers and consequently wond me the lottery prize int he first category of $85,000.00-DOLLARS. The letter stated that they tried to contact me by telephone but unfortunately were unable to reach me. The purspose of the letter was to explain how I could calim my cas prize. For me to be able to do so there were fees of a calculated amount of $2400.00 There was a check in that amount enclosed in the letter payable to me. The check looked very legit and had an address of Connecticut General Life Insurance Company, P.O. Box 15050, Wilmington, DE 19850 US in the top left corner. It also had in small font Bank of America, Windsor, CT written in the top right corner of the check. The check number was 21986254 dated December 4, 2007 and signed by a Barry Grujher or something like that, which was the same signature that was on the bottom of the letter. To elaborate more, ths drawing was supposedly held in Las Vegas, Nevada and that I had within 3 weeks of receipt of letter to confirm the letter prior to cashing the check enclosed or I could not claim my prize. The letter gave me a name of a Mrs. Dora Jones as my contact representative. I do not recall entering this contest, nor do I believe the contents are not a scam to get my bank information. They do appear ligitimate, so I am afraid for persons who would cash this check and get scammed out of bank info or personal information that would damage their bank account and their credit.
