SWITZERLAND LOTTERY!!!!!!!!!
I recieved a check for $2990.00 from Sierra Atlantic, Inc. 6522 Kaiser Dr. Fremont CA 94555. The bank was Comerica Bank. The letter I got with the check said I was a third category winner and that I won $65,000.00 from the Switzerland Lottery. They sent me the $2990.00 for the tax and clearance fee. I called the information on the bottom of the letter: Victor Arnolds of Sierra Financial Management group, subsicidiary of Switzerland Trust Corporation, 9001 Lake Ave. Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H1C7 1-780-695-4351. I didn't talk to Victor because he was on the other line but I did talk to a lady named Kendra Beattles. She wanted me to deposit the check in my account or cash it at a check cashing place ASAP and then go get a moneygram for $2800.00 and send it to Joanne Miller 1000 Jefferson Ave Nova Scotia, CANADA B2R1W1. I took it to my bank and asked them about it...they let me know that it is a scam and if I were to deposit it in my account I would be responsible for it. They had alot of scams just like this one that are about the lottery.

Is this a scam where you can win $86,000 from cowell baker, a subsidiary of united trust corporation?


2006-09-05 18:47:56 -
I recieved a check or what appreas to be a check today in the amount of 4975.oo from OLGC Financial Group is it real ??


2006-09-05 16:07:26 -
just recieved a check for 2,900.00 and letter saying i won lottery.is this check real & can i cash it?


2006-09-05 15:35:18 -
How does this scam work? The check looks real. The letter tells me I have won $250,000.00. Called and called. Answering machine full. The woman's accent isn't Canadian. What is going on?


2006-09-05 13:54:58 -
Don't cash any of the checks! I received one, tought it was bogus, calle the comapny it was drawn on, they said the check was valid, went to wells fargo, they said the check was on a closed account. I called the comapny back, they told me that they had to close the account because someone was cashing bogus checks and that they would be sending me another one, but if I wanted to cash the check at my bank they would honor the check. this is total bs. so I turned the check and the letter I received with it to the police and they said if I did get another check from this comapny to just give it to them and they would investigate it.
Also on another note, if you do cash the check at your bank. When the check comes back bounced, they will expect you to pay all the money back, also charge you for a returned check fee, returned deposit fee and then lock your account for 2 weeks or more while they investigate YOU to make sure you are no the one writing the counterfit checks.

DONT CASH THE CHECKS!!!! IT IS ALL A SCAM!!!!!!!
