The number is being used by a fraudulent company that sends letters with promises of a free grant after you send them money via WU.

I just one and being a poor college kid, it was tempting. But the fact that this was in way, shape, or form relating to school I was suspicious.

Its a scam

i received the same check on the 8th o november depositedthe check in my account adthen three to five days later they drained myaccount to a negative 110.00 and i have a two yr old with down syndrome and they have ruined our acouns and now i have no money for her treatments.. I dont se why the gov doesnt do anything about it.. I hope i do get blessed being homeless isnt any ones dreams but they took me for it all plus some.. cambridge financial inc was on mne...

I got the same letter and same phone # as everyone else except the names on my letter were different.  The company, All American Trust Inc, had a Chicago address (540 W. Madison St) instead of a New York address.  I figured it was a scam so I didn't respond to it.

same as above.  all info same.  has anyone become aware of the outcome?  what happens if you deposit the check?  what more happens?

Same letter, same number, different name however,  David  Woorow, same donors as well, dumb jerks sending this out round the holidays...new it  was too good to be true...tsk tsk.....threefold rule  on them!!!!!

If anybody deposits a check from this company, open up a 2nd bank account. I threw mine out as I figured there was a trick involved. Never deposit these checks into your main bank account.

The company is All American Int., Inc of 1752 York Avenue, New York NY and it also said "loss prevention management center".

They never called but mailed me a check of $1800 to cover taxes for a $12,000 grant which they say was for my home improvement needs. The letter says I was "randomly selected" from a retail tracking international database, which lists stores I frequently shop at. The letter says f I deposit this $1800 check, then I will receive a certified check for $10,500, and the letter said for me to have a driver's license ready before December 19 to release the certified check. The letter also said to activate my account, call David Woodrow at 1-289-892-2475 and give the claim #, and to also be prepared to state how I qualify for additional grants to suit my home improvement needs.

I really am doing rennovations on my home and shop at Lowe's and Home Depot (who they listed as donors) so I wondered about this, but still I thought something was fishy so I researched this. I figured it was a scam so I never deposited the check but just threw it out. I know depositing the check will lead to this company stealing money from my bank account.

I recieved a check with insructions to call and ask for a Frank Bosley. This letter was stated Final International home Improvement Grant Notification. i deposited the check and now just waiting to see the outcome. I figured this is a fraud and would like to find out to prevent anyone from getting scammed. this really needs to be stopped!

did you call them or cash the check what happend??????????

They did not call they sent a letter for "Home Improvement Grant" with a check.

they did not call they sent check and letter. I called number and it is a non-american trying to scam americans. i AM DISABLED WITHOUT INCOME. I ask God to forgive them for what there doing. I beleive what goes around comes around. the comp given is no longer in buseness
