I received a letter from HSBC Financial stating that I won $250, 000. for a "Consumer Promotional Draw" organized for all customers of major stores in USA and Canada. The stores listed were Wal-Mart, Sears, Home Depot, Safeway etc. They included a check for $4, 900. (that was to cover the Canadian taxes). The check was issued from PNC Bank in Maryland from FPC Distribution. I was to call Bill Jay or Mandy Hill (my claims agent) at 905-781-3621 for further instructions. I was to cash the check and pay Glady Black (Tax Agent) at 567 7th Ave, St John NB, Canada; $3, 900. in the form of a money gram. I was not to act on this letter until I spoke with my claims agent. After I paid the Canadian tax a certified check would be sent to me via Fedex or UPS. Spoke with my local police department and told me it was a scam. The police office asked for a copy of the letter and check and it was really funny when I copied the check it showed up with VOID written all over, but was not visiable when we looked at the check
