Fake notice of winning Home Improvement Grant for $39,000!

I also received a letter dated March 14 stating "Congratulations! Your Home Improvement Grant with Serial # US-CAN2007GRANT-05-2697 was approved in category "A" of the North American Grant paid to qualified and randomly selected applicants across the USA and Canada.

I also was sent a check for $4,960.00 which they claim is a deduction from my total Grant amount of $39,000.00 to assist me in "paying the necessary fees and taxes for this claim. They state that the amount of $35,850.00 will remain in their custody until I pay the necessary fees and applicable taxes.

This scam offers you three options for your award one of which is to turn your award over to "charities in the State/Province of residence of the recipient after the expiry date."

I will be reporting this as well to the Better Business Bureau as well as the States Attorney. Please beware!!! The BBB will tell you that if an offer sounds too good... It most likely is.
