I received a letter in the mail saying I had been drawn in the annual Consumer’s Promotional Draw organized for both American and Canadian customers of the following major retailers e.g. Target, Wal-mart, Sears, Macy’s, Home Depot, Zellers etc.
It stated that I had won $250,000.00 and they enclosed a check for $4,968.23 to aide in the mandatory payment of Non-Canadian Residential Tax, insurance, and delivery charges pertaining to my $250,000.00 winning.
To receive my winnings I had to contact my assigned claim’s agent. I tried to call the number and I got a recording saying that the number was a cell number and had not been assigned. My claim agent was Jamie Walsh and the Tax agent was Mary Harber of Orange County, California.
After several attempts to call this number I contacted the bank the check was wrote on. It was SunTrust bank and they did verify that the account was real. However they could not verify that there was any money in the account or could not verify the check was real.
I never did reach anyone at any of the numbers located on the letter but I did check the addresses and they are in the middle of a field somewhere and were not real address locations.
Do not cash this check as I’m sure something stinks in Denmark, or in this case Seattle, Washington.
