I received an envelope with no return address.in the envelope was a letter stating that I was a second prize winner in the MEGA LOTTERY draw held on Oct. 9 2008. Also enclosed in the envelope was what appears to be a cashiers check in the amount of $3.650.25. I was directed to call this company to activate the check. The check was to cover the cost of Non Resident Government Service Tax Payable in Canada. The taxes were supposedly deducted from the prize money I had won which was a total of US $175,000. I was to send a MONEY GRAM for the amount of $2,850 to cover such taxes. If any of this is true why not just deduct the amount of the tax from the amount of the prize money and mail me the balance. I have no intention on cashing or depositing this phony check.
