American Money Corporation Promise of Cash, Car, and a Certified Cashiers Check Internet, Internet

My mother was contacted by phone of a prize she won.  Some coupon was drawn.  I knew that she had entered a coupon via Readers Digest for a new vehicle and they were supposed to pay the taxes for the vehicle.  I thought it was them but it's not.

This is American Money Corporation.  They told me to get a Green Dot Money card for $199.  I would control the money.  The next day they said they needed $395 for stamps and to put that on the Green Dot money card.  The next day it was $725.23 for the money to be released from the Clearance Center.

I had used the Green Dot cards before and you had to have the receipt to get the money from the card.  Not any longer.  If you give anyone the numbers off the back of the card then they can cash the card.

The saga continued into the next day, this time they wanted $1000 on money cards.  They were in town and as soon as I got the money card they would bring over the prize.  I went and got the money cards and demanded to have proof prior to giving me any numbers.  Or that they could bring the prize over and put it in my neighbors drive way and then we would continue our transaction.  They claimed they would be fired if they did this.

They finally talked me out of the numbers on the 2 cards.  The next day they wanted $1000 more.  I balked.  The "CEO of the company" called and said he wants to prove to me this is not a scam so "just be nice, honey, and go get the cards.  You do not have to give me any numbers until we get there with the vehicle."  I still refused.  The CEO said to prove it he would go get $800 in Money Cards so I only had to come up with $200.  I still refused.

Then the harrassing phone calls started.  They told me they had a US Marshall coming with the prize to prove that this was not a scam.  I asked to speak with the US Marshall and requested his badge number.  I then called the US Marshalls service in New York.  This badge is invalid and the person does not even work with the US Marshalls service.  He said his name is Mr. Benjamin Walker.

Scared my mother and myself. 

If you get a call like this.  Do not do anything with them.  They even threatened to turn me into the FBI if I did not get the last part of the money.  That is after a police officer answered one of the phone calls.
