Received a letter stating I had won $55, 000 from the Lotto Channel North American Sweepstakes drawn on Oct 2, 2006. To claim the prize they have sent part of your winnings in a check. And you are to contact Paul Bucholtz your client care manager at 1-902-412-8887 ext 231 to find out how to claim your winnings.
They tell you to cash the check and then call back for instructions on wiring the money to cover a Non Resident Government service tax (GST).
I have not cashed the check or ask for the wiring instructions. When I went to the bank they would not cash it and told me it was a scam and to contact the Attorney General's Office. Which I am doing tomorrow.
