Allen Securities Inc
Lotto North American and European Sweepstakes Lottery, Arsenia Albrecht ("tax agent"), Susane Johnson ("claims/disbursement agent"), Martin Lawson (promotion manager). Claims I won $50,000.00 from a $4 million pot split between 80 other winners

I called the number to see what's going on. I had a feeling it was too good to be true. The first check ($2,750.00) taken from my winnings was for tax purposes. The woman I was talking to said I needed to deposit the check and when it clears to call back and get the info on where to send the $2,750.00. Once the taxes were paid I will recieve the rest of my winnings.
I figured if this was a scam the check wouldn't clear. And if it did, sit on it for a few weeks at least, since I know most banks (including mine) promise to have funds available within 2-5 business days. And I learned from watching my brother go through something similar to this, that the bank may clear it a first and then take the money back once they have had the chance to truly process it and find out the check is a fake.
Well, it cleared 2 days later and then was taken out of my account 3 days after that. I had a feeling this was going to happen, so I guess it was a good idea not to spend it. The only down side to this was that I did get hit with a $10.00 deposit item return fee. I'm just happy that the fee wasn't any higher. Now I'm off to show the bank my proof of the scam and hopefully get my $10.00 back.
