I received a letter stating I had won a Sweepstakes conducted through a random computer ballot system, along with a cashiers check cut on a JPMorgan Chase Bank check, for $3920.00. The letter stated this money was to pay the applicable taxes on the sweepstake amount I had won $125,000, and was deducted from my winnings. The letter also stated that they unsuccessfuly tried to contact me. The payment of $2920.00 towards the taxes would be made directly to my tax agent by using Moneygram located in any WALMART. A telephone # was listed (1-416-839-0014) along with a name, Barry Goodman, to contact to claim the grand prize money. The letter was signed my Sheila Eleen, Promotion manager. I felt this was a fraud. If it's too good to be true it's not. I decided to check the internet for similar cons. I found your site with the same methods, just different names listed. FYI the envelope had a stamp for postage. I thought this odd as most business use first class mail stamps with their name listed. Also there was no address listed for the company. I lost no money, I just want people to be aware of this.
