Recieved an unmarked envelope with a stamp from Canada without any information on it about the sender. In the envelope was a letter from American Mega Lottery Payment; stating that it was the final notice <without prejudice> and that my name came up this month which drew the lucky number 07-10-23-56-77 and the result match $250,000.00 and that American Mega Lottery had been contracted to find winners who had not claimed their winning and help them through the claimainng process. The letter demanded absolulte co-opperation from my end as part of the official law and protocol as mandated by Federal and State regulations on sweepstakes winnings. There was also a check issued by progressive casualty insurance company in the amount of $3950.00 which would help me take care of taxes, insurance and shipping fees. The letter also mentioned that a representative from CAPITAL DIRECT LOTTERY SWEEPSTAKES who is already in my area would hand deliver the $250,000.00 check to my door step directly afater i completed the claim. To initiate the claiming process i was to contact claims agent Frank Dimson #1-647-284-8669. The letter also had a pin#TXTY/009PR that was asssigned to my name as this would identify me whenever I made contact with American Mega Lotter Payment. So, I decided to search about this possible scam on the internet...and it was just as I suspected...AN ELABORATE SCAM!! On Scambook.com, I found that there were 17 other complaints against this company and its fraudulent lottery. Some of these people actually called the agent, who told them to deposit the check and let them know when they did so. Once they called the agent, they were told to then send most of the money to another individual. They later found out that the check was canceled and unable to be cashed, and now their checking account was short by the amount they withdrew and sent to the other person. DON'T FALL FOR THIS SCAM! THROW OUT THE LETTER RIGHT NOW AND SAVE YOURSELF SOME HEARTACHE! I hope this helps some of you who might fall prey to these maggots of mankind.
