Early Oct. I received a letter with a check from a company called Tri-Star Inc. from Ontario, Canada. The letter stated I was 1 of 20 winners of a sweepstake
in which I won $180,000. The check issued with the letter was made out in the amount of $4250 and stated in the letter was $2750 of this check would be used to pay for surcharges, taxes, etc. I was not to cash the check until I called a telephone number and spoke with a person named Chris.

The check enclosed looked very official/real with the bank name of KeyBank National Association name on it and with Key Bank symbol. The name of the company check was Licursi Garden Center of Kirtland, Ohio/

I did not call or try to cash the check. I did look the company up on line and saw that this was a scam!
