Mike Hyden, Britesmiles, Inc. #1-(647) 219-1015 I was a winner, I called Mike, I cashed the check, I had to wait 15 days, it bounced, a $39.00 charge to my acc. Boca Raton, Florida, Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, Los Angeles, California

I am in need of some cash, everyone is. I got a letter from Britesmiles Inc. telling me that I won second place, and no winner had been choosen. Out of over 50,000 persons me and nine others were to share a pot of 1.5 million dollars.

I did not really think the letter and the check were real, but I called a person, Mike Hyden, claim agent. I dialed his number and someone with little understanding of the English Language. He asked me to give him my Claim #, 1110/B1NL. That number must have been given to thousands of people.

The check was in the amount of $4,879.85. Of that, $2,998.00 was to be paid by Western Union or Moneygram. That number sounded very small, but I was still wanting to send the check to be cashed by his bank. I held a small hope that I would get the proceeds and pay off some big time bills. After I went into Chapter seven bankruptsy, many people wrote off my dept that was not included in the actual bankruptsy.

Being a rather conservative person, I told him that I would cash his check and send him his fee after the Check ballance in my account had the free and clear amount equal to $4,879.85 in addition to other monies in my account.

When the check bounced, I was out $39.00, but it could have been a lot worse. If I would have sent the money, only God would have known how to save me. The bank could have had me arrested for fraud because I am on a fixed income and never have that much money in the bank at one time.

I really hope that these people can be found and convicted. They have made my life more than a little uncomfortable.
