Letter stated that I was one of 20 winners that won the MEGA LOTTERY conducted in the UK. It also stated that they made many unsuccessful attempts to contact me regarding this winning.
Letter states as follows:
"To expedite the processing enclosed is the check of $3,980.00 US dollars which has been deducted from your winning. The sole purpose of this check is for the payment of applicable Government Taxes on your big winnings. Government taxes cannot be deducted from the winning amount because of the insurance policy coverage. The tax amount is $1,995.00 US DOLLARS to be paid directly to the tax agent.
Please do not attempt to use this check until you call. We urge you to keep this winning CONFIDENTIAL until your claim has been processed and your cash remitted to you as this is part of our security protocol and to avoid double claiming or unscrupulous acts by non participants taking advantage of this program."
