Received a letter and a check from Nationla Marketing in Ajax, ON Canada. It reads like this:

Award Claim Notification Final Notice

We have made unsuccessful attempts to contact you regarding your COnsumer Rewards Program winning. Your name attached to ticket number 3749065 drew the lucky winning ticket.

The check looks real and is drawn on Wachovia Bank in Racine, WI.. When I called, I found out there IS no branch in Wisconsin.

UPdate on National Marketing

AUTHOR: Kris - (USA)

POSTED: Monday, December 21, 2009

After looking through the site and all the reports, I see that Barnes Marketing and National Marketing may be the same company i.e. scams.

My letter is from National Marketing, but others have exactly the same letter, even the same typo ('you' instead of 'your') from Barnes Marketing.

Seems they have changed their name and town In Ontario, but same amount and everything else.

Anyone know if I take the check and letter to the police, can they do anything about it? Can my bank?
