Scam:
Sir/Madam,
We are pleased to inform you that you are one of the declared winners of the MEGA LOTTERY conducted in UK being the host of the event for this present year Mega Jackpot lotto winning programs held on Friday FEB. 24th in the 2cd category. Ticket No01042 drew the lucky winning NO 31-13-23-70-02.
If you get a letter in a Costco Wholesale envelope, stating this, it is a SCAM. They say you're one of 32 people to win $125,000 dollars from a total prize of 4 Million. They say your name was drawn randomely from computer ballot system.
They send you a check for $3980.00 dollars, but say don't cash it until you call the number on the letter.in London, ON. They want you to pay $1980.00 dollars to cover the taxes.
Keep it confidential it says. I did not try to cash the check as I was very weary. I looked up info on internet about the Company name and found a article about this exact scam. The company does not appear to exist and the zip code does not exist.
