Fidelity Securities Inc Winning FInal Notification, statement of winning $125,000.00 with check for $4,875 from same name company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Toronto Ontario

I received a letter and a check today from a company called Fidelity Securities Inc out of Canada, telling me that they have been unsuccessful in contacting me regarding winnings of $125,000.00. I am supposed to be one of 32 declared winners chosen by random computer ballot. The check was in the amount of $4,875.00 and written from Mellon Trust of New England in Everett, MA 02149.

The check was supposed to cover the applicable taxes and was deducted from the total winnings. I was asked not to cash the check until I contact the agent on the letter. I did call was told, electronically, to call back during regular business hours, which it was according to the letter.

While I'm writing this, I noticed that the person whose name at the bottom, listed as Bryan Morgan is not the name of the signature, BMallard Jr.

When I googled this company I came up with your site and others, almost word for word telling of their letter and check. Not only was the winning amount and the check exactly what I have, the claim number is also the exact same one, XLA/CK-0213.

I suppose this is just another one of those scams like the barristers from England and Africa telling you they need your help to get the money from the estate of a once very wealthy person.
