So i thought i won a trip and got emails saying that i have won and that when i get a cheque in the mail to call the number and follow the steps.
Well i went to the bank and though something was fishy so i asked the banker to call the company who issued the cheque and they said that the cheque was not the amount of $9436.49 like it should of been.
When i called and left a message a man with a strange accent called from this number 16478300383 asked if i put the cheque in the bank and i said not yet.
And why i got a cheque for this amount, and that i wanted to know information about my trip and he said "what trip" the original person who was emailing me was a gentleman going by joseph murphy, saying someone would contact me about funding for the trip.
The person that contacted me through email was jeff mccowan saying that the trip was cancelled due to some problem but a cheque for my trouble is on its way any way. So when i called the number 17806044860 to get more information about this cheque no one answered so i left a message. And thats when after the call from the top number 16478300380 came in and he was very abrupt and tried to make sure i put the cheque in the bank. So im stil waiting for him to get a hold of me and will ride this out as long as i can to get as much information on them as i can. Here is a few messaged they asked for in their emails. Thanks and becareful
