Union Trust Financial
3800.00 check for me to cash and western union them money

I recieved a letter as well for this company saying I have won $250, 000.00 and a check for 3800.00. They request I cash it, and western union or money gram them 2885.00 to some guy named Julian Calas. hmmm, I live in Utah, we have do not have the lottery so I know I never bought a ticket.

I called the company on the check, Latham & Watkins in LA California and am still waiting to hear from a lady named Nadine. I called Citibank in Delaware (the bank name on the check) and she looked up the account. She stated that it is active, but has a 3-rd party hold? whatever that means. She also stated that there was a report of stolen checks and that this was probably one of them. I told her I would not cash it.

I have researched a lot of fraud in my day and this is class act. If anyone gets a check like this call the name of the company on the check and validate before trying to cash it. You can be prosecuted (meaning jail) for cashing a fraudulant check and be required to repay the entire amount. In my case would have been 3800.00. Regardless if this Julias Calas has 2885.00 of it.
