My Mother-in-law received a check from VOITH PAPER out of Appleton WI, drawn off Citibank, N.A. Out of New Castle DE, in the amount of $4,800.00. With the check accompanied a letter from AllState Financial Services based out of Nova Scotia Canada. "Jim Morris" (too funny!) at 1-778-858-5158, stated that she needed to WIRE him $325.00 to claim this check and that if she did, another check in the amount of, get this, $450,000.00 would follow! Even though the common person would know this is a scam, it is VERY scary how real this check looks. Were it not for all the misspellings in the letter, the way it was written, and the look of the letter (looks cheap), it may very well be the most fake, accurate looking, scam I have ever seen! I filed a complaint with my local BBB and am now going to contact our local police dept.
