I have recieved a letter from Alcan Inc. Saying that I have been 'an exceptional lucky sweepstake winner' and that I must claim my money prize of $50,000.00 before it will be donated to a charity organization. I They sent me a check of $2,995.00 and said to deposit this check into my bank and turn around and write them a check of $2800.00 to pay for a processing fee. The balance of $195.00 would be used to pay for the transfer charges charged to me by Western Union of Money Gram when sending the money back to Alcan Inc. Then I am to fill out this 'Payment Confirmation Form' sent with the letter and phoney check with all my information and fax it back to the number they put on the paper (1-204-887-4606). When I dialed their telephone number of 1-204-951-8860, there was no business voicemail or anything. It just says that 'mailbox is full, unable to leave a message.
If its too good to be true, it probably is. However, this letter and check could fool many people as it does look legit especially because the check has a JPMorgan logo on the upper left hand corner and the letter uses sponsors like READERS DIGEST, PUBLISHERS CLEARING HOUSE, SWEEPSTAKES, and, LOTTO.
Be careful from claims like this. These people are evil and must be stopped!
