I received a letter in the mail yesterday, and it said that I was a winner in the "Compensation Draw" organized for all customers of the major stores in U.S.A. And Canada. (walmart, sears, home depot, safeway. Etc) in conjunction with the Sweepstakes association of North America.
It said my name was attached to an entry slip with the winning lucky number and serial number.
They want me to deposit the check in my account, then send a money gram to a Vanessa Trey to pay the taxes on my winnings. Um ok. How about NO!
If anyone has any information on this scam I would be glad to join in and get these people prosecuted. I work at a law office and have access to a variety of lawyers.
What a horrible scam to play on people, me and my fiance are currently paying for a wedding on a huge budget, and this is just a slap in the face to us. We work so hard for our money, and we are doing our best to put together a wedding for ourselves and this is just heartbreaking!
