I like the part where they ask to keep it quiet from the public!!!! That sounds really professional!
Interesting stuff! I'd like to see these people caught. Who knows what their true intentions are. Apparently they don't mind having a cold black soul!
They need to be kept by themselves where they cant infect poor honest people with their discustingness!

Hello,
I got the same letter saying I had won $115,000 dollars out of a split winning prize of $107,646.00 in which 23 people had won and split the total winnings. My check reads - WYNDAM FRANCHISE SYSTEMS - 510 W PARKLAND DR -SANDY, UTAH 84070. The check says Mellon Bank, N.A., Pittsburg, PA. I called the fake agent who was so called Pamela Anderson and she said to cash the check then call her back so she tell how to send the money back to them for processing and tax purposes and then I could receive my $115,000 prize money. She also told me by sending the money back to them the IRS could not take the 33% that they usually take. She then told me not to tell any press or any ex-girlfriends, ect. because they might turn me in to the IRS. She sounded really legit and truthful on the phone. I then ask her if she was in the so called lottery business office while I was speaking with her. She responded "yes I am", then I heard 2 kids laughing, then crying in the background. The government should find these scam artists, put them in jail and throw away the key.

I am investigating a lottery scam involving GROUP FORUM AMERICAN CLEARING HOUSE, supposedly located in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Anyone in Brooklyn, New York who has been received one of their letters (and an accompanying check supposedly from Circuit City)can contact me at the above e-mail.

I received a letter in the mail Oct 17, 2006 stating I too had been selected a winner of the British International Lotter programs along with a check for $1977 to cover the international clearance fees of $1830. The company name on the check was easy to find on the internet, it belongs to a carpet adhesive company. Now does that make sense! I too will be taking my check and letter to local authorities first thing tomorrow morning after doing a little research online.

On October15,2006 i received a letter in the mail stating that i won the lottery, along with the letter was a check for $5000.00. The letter stated that i needed to cash the check as soon as possible and to pay the taxes western union then i would receive a check in the amount of $250,000. i took the check to a bank and spoke with the manager, she stated the check was real but they have been getting alot of checks just like that one that do not clear, the check was from Germany and she also stated that the lottery does not exist outside the United States. I took the check and letter to the local authorities and hoping this will soon be on the news. My main concern is for those who are elderly and also single mothers like myself who may fall victim to those evil people.

Hello, I have purchased that "allocated winnning numbers" and have used them. My advice to those of you who have purchased the numbers as well, do not even try. The rules state that they are guaranteed winning numbers, however, these numbers come in a package of 42 so your chances stand as 7/42. In any large lottery you have a 1 in 6 chance of winning. Thier numbers happen to guarantee a divison 9 prize. In the U.S. Powerball, there are 42 powerball options. The division 9 prize in the contest happens to be the amount of $3.00! If you play all 42 numbers, a ball will be pick and the 5 digit number doesn't have to match. This just means that you are guaranteed because a ball will be chosen.
