I recieved a letter from zilos management consultants stating that I had won a sweepstakes/lottery with a serial #US-05-WEBMART. I won a share of $96,000.00 pooled from Publishers' Clearing House computer data base.
There was a check enclosed for $4,680.56 which was deducted from my winnings to help pay for taxes and processing fees. There was a name and number to claim the winnings, William J. Keys 1-416-834-1470
I do alot of things online and I do enter sweepstakes from time to time, but I didn't recall entering this one. I checked out zilos management consultants online before I attempted to call them or cash the check. Good thing I did! I found info about this company being a scam right here on consumer complaints. Thanks Mike from Oregon!
I hope someone takes action against whoever is behind this scam! I really could have used this money. My family and I are struggling and we just lost our home. This is my first night of being homeless and this scam gave my family and I a false hope. I get to wake them in a few hours and let them know that there is no money. Maybe were just stupid for thinking it was a possibility, but whoever is behind this scam is taking advantage of people who are in need.
The check they sent is from Noble Distribution E. Llc, p.O. Box 4528, Pittsburgh, Pa 15205. Issued thru National City Bank, Pittsburgh, PA 15219. The envelope was post marked from Canada!
I hope this helps prevent anyone from being scammed!!!
