I recieved a check with the letter head "Bonanza 2000 Royal British Draws Award Certificate" which basically stated I was receiving a check for $2, 993.92 as a result of winning $115, 500 in a lottery. This money is to help me "finance the international clearance fees" and should be remitted to my "agent" Richard Owens. I am asked to keep this award from public notice, but assures me I will recieve a total amount of $107, 646.000 (my winnings minus the Sponsor's Commission). THIS IS A FRAUD!!! PLEASE DO NOT get excited and cash this check! If you still have an incurable optomistic streak, at least take the check and letter to your bank or the police and ASK THEM for their advice. This scam could end up costing you several thousand dollars!
