Four days ago I got a letter shipped from Canada from the company called ENCANA INC. 4610 Wellington Way, Vancouver, BC, V5J 5N7 Phone# 905 598 0661, saying that I won $9700 for filling our a survey with $998.87 CITI Bank check made out to my name. They (Mia Draker or Lacy) will send me a remaining amount as soon as I deposit first check. No SSN or Bank acc numbers asked. Letter was signed by the Parker Nathans-Promotion Manager. When the first check cleared she told me to go ahead and buy a MONEY PAK card and deposit that check on the card so that money is available for TAXES when the time comes. "Don't scratch the card till you are ready to use it for taxes" and "all we will need from you is a copy of the receipt to verify that you purchased the card and you will pay your taxes". Well then I found out from the Money Pak fraud line that receipt has printed same number that's behind the silver stripe-an actual account number. I didn't purchase one since that made me realize that they are trying to take that money from me and most likely their check I deposited is going to bounce back in a day or two. I called them back and told them that I will report them to every agency. I also recorded the entire conversation on my Ipad so I have a proof if anyone ever has any questions. It's a SCAM! They almost got me.
