Today, 10/1/2008, my husband received a letter with a check in it from Alliance Financial and Trust. He had won $125.000. The check was for $4, 875 and the first check was to be used for government taxes of his winnings. The tax amount was $2875, with a $2000 remainder. The $2875 was to be paid either by Western Union or Moneygram.
The check looks completely real. I checked the bank's name and address and routing number for validity, so far it was all legit. Then I checked Alliance Financial and Trust! SCAM!!!
I used to work in a bank so I have seen this kind of thing before!!!
