the letter was more like a flyer stating that the enclosed check for 2000.00 was to be activated by calling overseas. then the amount was to be used to help clear international fees.

If you do not check a company before entering into a transaction, you could lose your money, time and credibility. Some widely used resources are the Better Business Bureau (www.bbb.org) and the national fraud center ( www.fraud.org) These days, you can easily find out more about a company using the internet in a few minutes. From a company's website, you can details about its ownership, how old the company really is and feedback from the company's customers.

I play on-line lotto's each and each and every of the time, so i did not imagine two times when I were given the examine. I deposited the examine into my account. The letter I received the day in the previous in the present day is an same because the others, yet there became no examine(because I already had it). The volume on my letter is an eire telephone #. i did not take a strong look on the call of the corporate on the examine, yet i imagine it became from 1st centennial monetary company. i'm no longer efficient what to do about the examine.

Any solicitation you receive that says you won something, but that have to pay some kind of fee to get it, is a fraud! Those fees are making someone some money from all of the suckers who fall for it! Beware Monica.

Trash it, monica.m. It's a ruse to get your financial information so that a raid can be made on your bank account or with any credit accounts you may have.
Sorry, better luck next time.

That's a total load of crap. If you didn't enter, then you did NOT win anything. They just want your account information, etc.
