Like so many already, got this letter in the mail stating I won some lotto that I darn well know I never entered. No return address and a lifelike check in the amount $ 1, 995.00.
The check is written on an Eastern Bank account of LYNN, MASSACHUSETTS, with a (519) 721-5723 phone number. Being familiar with this location, I knew that was the wrong area code. A quick Google of EsternBank and I was talking with the bank haveing a big laugh about this SCAM.

I was told the account Number is real and the check has all thier routing numbers. But it takes them one day to expose it as a forgery and sent back to your bank. He told me it is being done hundreds of times a day with thier bank. Becoming a joke within thier branch.
I've tried the phone number with in the letter with no answer and thier mail box full and unable to leave a message.
I know its a scam, but can not wait to get a live body on the phone and "PLAY IT UP" like I have gone and cashed this check against the funds in my checking account and Just itching to send the funds to where ever they want.
I will have an address to the scammers and notify the local police.
I know its going to be a post office box, but if thier police gets enough complaints they might actually put out some effort to apprehend these scum bags.
Its not really a GOOD scam, I have seen much better, but still pi55e5 me off to know scum is out there wasting so much effort.
It makes me even more hot to know there will be a few that will actually cash this thing and send the money as told. Probably the same reason Democrates gained controll of congress. Alot of dumb people looking for something from nothing.
I'll update after I notify the police.
