Complaint / Review
Kingston Financial Group
Version of check kiting, masking as a prize redemption

I recieved a letter form the above titled company stating I was a winner in their "Winners Circle Jackpot". They gave a File# of 53264/09. It stated I had "Won", $34,263.30. They sent me a "Company Check", drawn on the "Woodforest National Bank" of Huston Texax, 77201, in the amount of "$3,426.33". They said it was to pay for the fees that the "Laws and Tax protocols", mandated by the Federal Government, required. They told me to call contact my "claims agent", prior to depositing my check. I called the phone# and a woman told me to deposite the check into my personal checking account and call her back when I had done so. She said she would then tell me where to send the money order in the amount of "3,083.00", and that the excess, "$343.33" was mine as part of my "prize". I googled the company, its address and the bank the check was drawn on. Neither existed. The BBB has no record also. My bank told me this was a scam, surprise, and that they would cancel the check as soon as they got the moneyorder, leaving you with a $3,083.00 nsf charge on your account.
