When i first opened this I went into shock! All I could think was, is this for real? The letter said I had won 115, 000 dollars in the Royal British Lotto. I had never heard of this before and had no idea how they got my name.
Right away I started planning what I would do with the money. I was just about to call the phone number to claim my prize, but I stopped to think about it.
I said I'd better run this by my fiancee first. It just seemed odd that the $5, 665.50 check for the supposed clearance fees was from Baker College and the claim agent was in Canada. I showed it to him later that night, and he wasn't sure what to make of it either.
I decided to check it out online. First I entered Zenith Financial on a search engine. I came up with nothing. This struck me as odd, so I entered Royal British Lotto, and bingo! There it was on consumer complaints.
Thank heavens I thought to check this out before even making that phone call. I'm so glad I found out the check was stolen before depositing it. I fully intend to report this to the authorities as soon as possible, and I'm going to tell all my friends and family about this. Let's hpoe these people arecaught before the scam another person.
