My Wife got a check and a letter in the mail. The "tax agent" address is different Joy Watson 2852 Nelson St. Toronto, Ontario M9k2W6, Canada., but it's the same idea.
Any time the government wants tax money they will take it out direct or you will send it to the government, not a third party.

I did not get the same letter, but very similar---the only way we can get these scams stopped is to keep reporting them to the proper authorities!!!!!!!!!!
---if you get the letter thru the US mail---that is mail fraud---report it to 1-877-876-2455 (get the "fraud division "of the postal service,) or email postalinspectors.uspis.gov
---Notify local BBB
---Notify Attorney General "fraud division" and police department
We, hopefully, can demand to put an end to these scams!!!!!!!!

I too received a check in the mail for 4,975 us dollars from a company in canada named Regions Investment Inc. the check is drawn on a bank in New Castle, DE and is on a CitiBank Account.....out of New Castle as well.........all the same contacts as the others on here...but I wonder if this is having anything to do with the great crisis we are facing here in america with the budget....and of course the check has no phone number on it...I wish I knew who to contact reguarding this matter so we could hopefully put a stop to it....Disappointed in the Carolinas......
