This "Company" sent me a letter stating I had won 1/25th of $2 million Sweepstakes. I received a check for $2410.19 whicha was to pay the taxes on my "winnings". The letter said to contact Victoria Morgan after I deposited the check. She was supposed to put me in touch with a "tax Representative" to which I pay the taxes on my winnings.There was a man answering the phone as Victor Morgan.

I did deposit the check and it seemed to clear, but a check can take up to 3 weeks to be returned. I called this "Finance Company" to ask for a business license or BBB # Which he was unable to provide.When I asked to speak to the director of the "company", or even a supervisor he refused to oblige me. He did however, spit out several lines from the letter I received.

I asked if he could tell me anything besides what was in the bogus letter and he couldn't( probably b/c the letter was the script for the only info he could give out. He told me to go to Western Union and send $2310.19( the check I received minus $100.00 Western Union fee) To a Kim Moore at 111 Emprise Street Welland Ontario L3B2L3.

I called my bank(feeling really stupid) and was told this has happened before and not to spend any of it because the check will come back returned. My bank assured me that the check with my account number on it will not be returned to these frauds.IF IT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE IT IS!!
