I received a letter from EPRIZE UNIVERSAL GAMING. I opened it and it said I woun 68K, and a check was enclosed for 2980.00, the check was said to be for taxes, clearance fees, and accounting fees. The letter looked so real and the check looked real to me and the tell at the bank.
The letter read that I was to deposit the check in the bank, and then wait 24-48 hours for the check to clear; after it clears I was to send a money gram to George Rudland in Miami, Florida for 28K. I followed all the instructions, but in the back of my mind I was thinking this is some type of scam. I also was feeling like it could be true, because I have entered several sweepstakes in the past year.
Therefore, it's days later I have not heard from these people and the phone number was not excepting any calls. The very next day, I read in the newspaper how a older couple got the same letter, stating the same instructions. I then said to myself I knew it.
