How to spot a scam

Sandy of Midland, MI October 15, 2007


I got letter with check in mail for 4.985 saying I won 262,000 and needed to go Walmart and pay taxes; and before cashing  the check at my back to call Jason Williams 1-204-951-1624.

I didn't do as they ask, but is this for real?

Barbara of Sparrowbush, NY October 11, 2007


I received a check in the mail for 4,985.00 The letter said, ticket with serial numbers attached to my name drew the lucky winning numbers. I was entitled to the sum of 262,000.00 to expedite te processing they enclosed this check for the 4,985.00. I was instructed to call this woman Sara Rogers, which I did (being VERY wary) I did Not believe it. but the woman told me to deposit the check in my account & call her back for further instructions......I took the check to my bank & spoke to an officer there & she told me that this scam has been going around the country for a few years.
