Promotion Manager I called the number and talked with the Alexia, when I requested to speak with her, she said "this is Lexi". She told me this was not a scam to get personal information and I would never be asked my SS # or any other identifiable information. She continued to expalin how I was entered into this program - when you are a part of a rewards program you are asked at a store checkout your phone number and zip code - this was how I was entered. She told me that my check was now activiated and I could deposit it, after the check cleared I was to call back and get the closest tax commission place to go to and pay my taxes on the lump sum... After I paid this I would receive the remaining amount of the $8000.00. She said it would take 12-24 hours for the check to clear the bank. Also told me that usually the total amount of taxes was approximately 10% plus any fees that the agency charged. She also added that all the compnaies listed the bottom of the letter along with several others were part takers in this deal and each company put up so much money for the winnings; however, she was unable to tell me which rewards program transaction resulted in me winning. What she did not know that I am only an active member of one rewards program. I called customer service of the rewards program and they had never heard of this marketing company andtold me that cooporate office considered this action fraudulant and an investigation would be done. Please call your rewards program if you are still in doubt after reading this.
