Letter claiming that I had won 100,000 in National Geographic Sweepstakes. Just cash this check for $3085.00

This company sent an awards letter claiming that I won $100,000 from National Geographic in a sweepstakes. They also sent me a check for $3085.00 to cover insurance, handling, duty and taxes fees. The check was from a company called Continental Traffic Ser Inc. And the check was from Regions Bank.

Luckily I could tell it was a scam. I called Regions Bank and they said that the account number on the check was already flagged as a fraudulent scheme. Trouble is, most people deposit the check in their own accounts thinking that the check clears. It does at first and then the scammers ask you to wire them money to cover the 'costs' out of the money they sent you. Trouble is, by the time your bank notifies you that the check is returned due to fraud, you have already lost your money.

Don't fall for this scheme!!!
