Shaw Financial Incorporated They told me in a letter that I was one of the 2nd prize winners in the second category of the European, African, and USA Consumer Sweepstakes. Los Angeles California

I have been scammed before, and as soon as I opened the letter and saw the check, I immediately went online to see if there was a report about it being a scam.  I was told that I was the 2nd prize winner in the second category of the European, African, and USA Consumer Sweepstakes, in conjunction with USA Departmental Stores, and that I had won $300,000 from the consumer sweepstakes lottery held on October 26th, 2015.  I received a check for $3,950.00, and was told that the processing fee was $3,650.00.  All I had to do was contact Solomon King at 877-209-7120, or 760-650-9853 (which was the number at the Cape Town, South African office).

There were 4 different addresses on the letter:

USA:  110 8th Street, Los Angeles, CA 90014

African Office:  223 Abel Rd., Cape Town, South Africa 1294

Ireland:  879 West Avenue, Dublin, Ireland

England:  101 Jefferson Rd., London, England, United Kingdom ET3 2CR

After reading the report from someone else, I did nothing, not that I was going to do anything anyway.  I am glad I checked this site first.
