John J. Getek - Glenn Mountjoy - Kevin Martins - Jason Olive - Telco Incorporated - Dansig & Associates MAIL FRAUD, The Mega Millions Draw Scam Clemmons North Carolina

On October 2, 2008 I recieved in the mail a letter with a Telco Incorporated letter head. Address 8817 Pallisades Ave., Grande Prairie, AB Canada Phone number 1-778-318-7874.

Claim number: CF 6155-091

The letter informed me that I had been one of the third catagory winners of "The Mega Millions Draw" held on September 15, 2007.

Then in the next paragraph: "Your RECIEPT with serial number 774-88713KN which you received when you purchased a sweepstakes ticket, drew the lucky winning numbers 21-17-34-48-26."

"You are therefore entitled to the sum of US $250,000 (Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand dollars) payable to you by band draft or certified cheque and will be delivered to you by special courier company."

"Enclosed is a check of US $4450.00 which has been deducted from your winnings. The purpose of the cheque is to pay for the Tax Clearance Fee. The payment information is stated below."

The check was a buisness check with Dansig & Associates, INC., 210 Industrail Drive, Suite 1, Clemmons, NC 27012. BB&T Bank Clemmons, NC 27012 and was signed by John J. Getek.

"Tax agent: GLENN MOUNTJOY

"Tax payment; $3400.00 us dallars (Three Thousand Four Hundred Dollars)

Obviously this is a scam otherwise this wouldn't be on here. Don't fall for it. I did. When I contacted "Kevin Martins" he told me to cash the check and send $3400 to the tax agent via MoneyGram or Western Union. Which I did. I called him back with the payment info. He informed me that the check for $245,000 was leaving his office via UPS that day. A couple days later my bank called me and said that the funds of that check were put on hold and my account was now -$4500. and I was responsible for it.

Though similar cases have different Company names and contact info, I've noticed the scam format and John J. Getek is signing the checks. I'm hoping this info will help others from the heartache and loosing $4500.
If anyone can give me some advice on any legal action I can take to bring this guy or guys to justice please do.
