mid-mountain co. inc. Fraudulant lotto winnings check.... , Ontario

I was sent a letter with a check enclosed for the amount $4,875 that claimed that I had won $125,000 and that the check was for the taxes owed on that amount.

I was to call them and verify that I was who they thought and then supposedly wire $2,875 by WEstern Union to the government for taxes. 

I don't know about anyone else but when you owe the government they do not ask you to wire them money like that.

This compnay should be called out for what they are doing and something done to them.

I am sure there are people out there who actually believe this is real and there is no telling what has happened to their identity.
