I BELEIVE THIS IS A RIP OFF - THEY SENT A CHECK STATING THAT I WON THE SHOPPERS LOTTRY HELD ON FEB 20TH 2009 AND THAT I WON $120000 THEY SENT ME A CHECK FOR $4700 AND TOLD ME TO DEPOSIT IT IN MY ACCOUNT (I DID NOT) AND THEN SEND THEM $2980 TO COVER TAXES. i CALLED THEM THIS MORNING AND TOLD THEM THAT I DEPOSITED THE CHECK (WHICH I DID NOT) I AM PLAYING THE GAME TO FIND OUT WHAT THEY ARE UP TO. THEY TOLD ME TO SEND THEM THE TAXES AI TOLD THEM THAT I WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE CHECK CLEARS THE BANK.
I ALSO TOLD THEM THAT THE CHECK IS SITTING IN THE FRAUD DEPARTMENT AT THE BANK TO SEE IF IT IS A REAL CHECK OR NOT, THE GUY GOT VERY NERVOUS AND TOLD ME THAT I NEED TO GIVE HIM MY BANK AND ACCOUNT # (WHICH I DID NOT) HE ALSO ASKED FOR MY PHONE# (I DID NOT GIVE) I AM ALLMOST TEMPTED TO OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT UP WITH THIS CHECK TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I NEVER SIGNED UP OR BOUGHT A TICKET FOR THIS TYPE OF LOTTERY.
SO I AM CONFUSED ON HOW THEY GOT MY NAME - INFACT I HAVE RE-MARRIED ABOUT 6 YEARS AGO AND THEY HAVE MY FIRST MARRIED NAME ON THE CHECK. IF THE COMPANY IS REAL GREAT AND IF THE CHECK IS GOOD EVEN BETTER - BUT I AM SURE IT IS A SCAM!!!
