UK & North America Consumer Reward Promotion Draw
Fraud

Received this letter and check from UK & North America Consumer Reward Promotion Draw claiming I had worn $50, 000. They enclosed a check of $3, 200.00 to offset the Non British Resident tax payment of $1, 950.00 payable to your assigned British tax officer as stated below. I suspected a fraud here so I went on-line and found several others who claim they received a similar letter and check and they claimed it was a fraud. I then called the FBI in my city (Charlotte, NC). They told me it was a fraud, they have heard from dozens of people regarding this, but not to send anything to them because they would not be pursuing this for two reasons: A. The government hasn't got enough money to follow up in crimes in this country, let alone other countries, and B. Following up on alleged fraud in other countries is to time consuming due to red tape and legal difficulties in going after someone in another country. So I next called my local police dept.(Char-Meck police dept. of Charlotte NC.) They told me to forward my complaint to the NC Attorney Generals office. So there you have it folks, no one cares to address this kind of fraud so you can expect them to continue and expect it to increase because they can operate with relative impunity because no one has the money or the time or the interest to pursue these pieces of slime that prey on the gullible public. Take care of yourself and use a little common sense. If it looks to good to be true, it probably is. Don't send money to anyone without first checking it out. If the FBI has received dozens of calls regarding this scam, then it must be a very big operation. You've been warned.
