We received a check for $4970.00 from Safeco Insurance Company, and a letter stating we won a Consumer's Promotional Draw (from retailers Target, Wal-Mart, Sears, Macy's, Home Depot, etc. However we have to contact a claim agent named Fiona Walton at (778)317-0031. There's a tax agent by the name of Sandra Lewis 668 Victoria Drive. Edmonton, Canada (no zip code) also listed. We contacted the State Police and they told us it's a total scam and to look on the web site snopes.com to see if we could find any other info about this scam. We are taking are letter and "fake" check up to the State Police post and handing it over to the detective that deals with this stuff.

#2 Consumer Comment

I had the same thing...

AUTHOR: Mrsz - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, May 05, 2009

I just got the letter today along with the fake check. I promptly went to my bank and turned it in to them.
I have to wonder, couldn't Wal-Mart, Target, ect, sue them for using their names? If they can be pinned down, that is....?
I copied the letter, names and phone #'s into my own Rip Off Report too. My husband did try to call them just to see if he could make them squirm, and amazingly there was no one there to pick up the phone, or there was a busy signal.....

#1 Consumer Suggestion

If you don't remember entering it...

AUTHOR: Joew - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, May 05, 2009

The #1 tipoff on these scams is that you did not enter any such contests. If it was real, then you could contact the manager of the store that you entered at to verify your name. They would verify it with their regional manager.

Obviously: "If it's too good to be true, it often/usually is!"
They are trying to get you to give them your financial information in order to commit identity theft or bank fraud. Also, some bounty hunters and bill collectors use this trick to test if an address is valid. I remember the "free pizzas" coupons that cops sent to people on their list. They had a specific date and time that you had to show up in order to eat - you do the math. Mwahaha, absolutely evil!
