I recently received a notification from M & M Financial, Inc advising me that I had won a lottery in the amount of $125,000. The letter was signed H.I. Grundy, Manager. They had enclosed a check in the amount of $5,980.00 and indicated it was for the purpose of payment of Canadian Non-resident Government Service Tax (GST).
I called the the claim agent 'Chris Peters' at the phone number identified at 1-778-323-0022. I foreign accent male answered and asked me what the claim number was on the letter. I gave him the claim number and then he asked me my full name. I gave him my first name only and after I refused to provide him my full name, he hung up the phone.
I have a strong suspicion that this company may be committing fraud, even mail fraud. If you receive this notification or something similiar, do not cash the check! Call your state authority and ask them to investigate.
