I got one of these letters in the mail today. $2800. The bank is real...the company is real. HOWEVER...the scam is real too. I wish there was some way we could keep this money...and screw these guys over. My contact number is 1-(647) 219-4287 and Charles Cooper Associates. Yeah...right.

I rcvd check in the mail for 4700.00 from Universal Fastener in Charlotte NC.  The bank was Wachovia.  They were requesting that I send them 2920.00. It was stating that I won the lottery.  The letter was signed by J Whitney and to call Susan Smith at (905) 923-0137.  The letterhead was from Charles Cooper and Associates.  Another Scam

letter came addressed to my children for heaven's sake; I'm concerned about how they have our address and know we have children; number has now changed to (905) 920-7214 to claim winnings and we received check for $4700 on Cole Taylor Bank in Wheeling, IL, but letter came from Canada; signed again by Carl A. Mendez and Charles Cooper Associates agent.  Will be reporting the International Lottery Commission to the Postmaster.

I got a check in the mail today n it looked so real. It was 4,700 n they asked me to pay 2,900. The address n bank was real but the phone number didn't go through. It was signed by carl A Mendez. I did some google search n I found this site. I new it was a scam because I never do play lottery. I hope these people get caught. Whoever they are, there's a saying that says, you can run but u can't hide.

i got a letter today as well and enclosed was a $2800 check. My agent was Linda Newton Associates. They asked for 1900 dollars for processing as well. I am reporting it to FBI and CIA,ATF,BBB,ABC,TPD or anywhere else we can even channel 9 news lets kick these guys in the #%&*.

this is a scam, BEWARE.
