The Royal Financial Group
Award letter for National Sweepstakes in amount of $55, 000

Received an awards claim notification for a sweepstakes from The roayl Financial Group in the amount of $55, 000. It also included a check drawn from the Sovereign Bank in the amount of $4, 030.79 payable to me. Please note that I was instructed to call a Karl Marshall, who would advise me how to deposit this check and to obtain a MoneyGram for the taxable portion of the award.
Beware of this scam - there is no return address on the envelope and asking for money upfront is a key to this being fraudulent.
