I, too, have received an outlandish letter that looks entirely proffessional. It has an un-cashable check attached to it with perforation as to make you believe it's real at first glance.
My winnings are exactly $612,444.89 but they mention they will need some assesssment and processing fees of $21.96, security and delivery fees of $5.00...totally $26.96.
They go so far as to say I've already to won and that they will not be held liable for checks delivered to the wrong address. They also try to distract your attention to this fact by giving you a special little area to amend your address if they've got your address wrong to begin with...how nice.
People, please. If this isn't an obvious scam, I don't know what is. By the way...I tried to Google Brent T. North's name and came up with nothing! (imagine that). He says he's the Cheif Executive Officer...heh-heh, yeah okay!
