Friday October 31, 2008. I received a notice in the mail from A.T.B Financial Services. Along with the notice was a $4800 check. I read the notice and followed the directions. I called John Miller, the claims agent, at 1-604-338-1960. He told me that he would active the check and to deposit it into the bank. I did that on Friday and had to wait for the check to clear on Monday.

I contacted John and the next instructions from him were to Money Gram $3850 to my tax agent, Loretta Carmack. Next, John told me to money gram $1725 to Thomas Summer, who I was told worked for UPS, for insurance on the $480,200 check that I was informed would be delivered to me in a certified check as a 2nd place prize winner via UPS. My next step was to waist my time going to the bank and Wal-Mart but thinking the whole time it would all pay out in the end for my children and family. The check never showed.

I contacted John on Wednesday who said I need to pay another $1274 because the original insurance figure was wrong. I ran around some more and did what he told me. I contacted him on Thursday and gave him the reference number for the money gram that he was so persistant to know. John Miller promised me that I would receive the certified check via UPS by 6:00pm Eastern Standard Time. Needless to say UPS nor the check ever came.

I checked my bank statement to find out the check was counterfit and the bank took back $4800 out of my account. What would have happened if I didn't have the money in the bank to cover for this? This is how I came across this website to find out the whole thing was a total scam.
