Comtec Financial Trust Services
Subject: Award Claim Notification

I received a letter dated March 28, 2008, from Comtec Financial Trust Services, and signed by Karin Kovasec. It states that my name, attached to ticket number 728227-0-111 with the serial number 3009-90 drew lucky numbers to win in the 3rd group. It basically said that I had won $45, 000. They enclosed a check for $3, 100 from Comtec Financial Trust, 2779 W. Elm St., Hampton, SC 29924. This check was to enable me to pay for the processing/administration fees and the balance of $41, 900 will be sent via special delivery within two business days upon payment confirmation. It told me to call Mrs. Jennifer Snyder at 250-813-0730. The area code is British Columbia.

I have heard of scams like this from other countries and was pretty sure this is a scam. Of course, it would make anyone suspicious when the letter has no return address on the envelope. The stamp on the envelope was Canadian. I searched under scams involving Comtec Financial Trust Services and found that others had received letters exactly like or similar to mine. I hope no one actually falls victim to such a scam. It is sad to know that some people have nothing better to do than try to cheat people out of money. I hope these people are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
