Waterhouse Securities, Inc., International Claim Department Had a check for me, $4,980.00 to cover an alleged $2995.00 tax bill on a well deserved $250,000 sweepstakes winning. Morriston Ontario

This is a pretty good looking check. Still..Really... Came to ROR and found a couple other folks who had the same deal (my fellow winners, I presume) but their checks were written on banks with bad addresses and phone numbers. My check didn't show a phone number, but the address checked out! I found a listing for a Bank of America at 1601 1 St in Modesto, California. I got the phone number from CitySearch and called just now. A young lady with a wonderful phone presence was kind enough to verify the routing number on The Check. Turns out to be invalid. A number representing a route to nowhere. Oh well, at least I can congratulate my fellow winners...Congratulations, you've still got yours!!
