I have also received a call and a check stating I had won a specific amount of money.  I knew it was a scam, therefore I never responded.

10/1/11-received an envelope in the mail with my address and someone else's name.  The envelope had Staples in the return address and postage from Canada, so I opened it thinking it was an ad from Staples.  Enclosed was a check was or $4,890.10 (amount getting larger as time goes on).  I immediately knew it was a scam because the check was from Clearwater, FL, another address from Santa Ana Way, CA and the letter was from CCB Trust Finance USA Lottery Sweepstakes in Las Vegas, NV .  It had a similar phone number 778-707-9191 and Tony Newton is the Claims Manager.  The letter states you have won $250,000.00, the check is a portion of the winnings and the taxes will be $2,500.  After you the check is cashed a representative comes to your door with the winning check and that is when you give him the detached paper from the letter with your signature and updated personal information.  You always have to be on the lookout for scams.

Also received the letter from "CCB & Trust Finance Inc" with check in the amount of $3,997.09 and stating I had won $200k.  Advised to call "claim agent".  There isn't a 102 Franklin St address in Las Vegas.  In addition the address on the check of JP Morgan Chase of 6040 Tairbell Road is misspelled -- it's Tarbell Road.  Cell phone in BC 778 896 4898, land line in Jamestown CA 209 984 2399.  It would be funny if people weren't actually getting ripped off.

I didn't get a call, I received the letter. It was a cheap envelope that you can purchase at any 99cent store. No Return Address, No Postage Stamp, and my info had been either typed on there via typewriter or regular computer printer. Letterhead read "CCB & TRUST FINANCE IN" but the address was in Las Vegas Nevada, the phone number was from Vancouver, BC, the Fax # was from Jamestown California, and the PO Box was from Langley, BC. The letter stated i won $200,000(US) and enclosed was a check for $3,996.72 to cover the tax fee of $2,970.00 . HAHAH What a scam. First off, I don't play the lottery or enter any type of Raffle so I knew right away it was bogus. My question is, WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS? "Ultra" Called the bank on the check and also informed his bank. I'm going to do that today.

Okay, it's been a while since my last post but I wanted to update what I found out with my depositing this check into one of my checking accounts. It so happens that the check I was sent by "CCB & Trust Finance, Inc." was was wrote on a company check who happened to hold an account at Chase Manhattan Bank, where I also HAD an account before cashing this check. Upon cashing the check, I immediately withdrew all of the funds from the check as this guy, Mike Hardy, kept pressing me to send him the money. Needless to say I was very apprehensive about that and now believe it to be a horrible scam. 3 days after cashing the check I see that my account goes negative and that the bank took my savings to cover some of the cost. Also, about 2 weeks later, I receive a phone call from a Chase Bank fraud investigator who explained to me that the check I received was drawn on a legitimate bank account at the bank for a major steel corporation but that the check itself is fraudulent and that the actual check number did not match up with the actual payee (from the real check) who was to receive the $3,997.98 as his/her monthly salary. Apparently the scam artist (s*** head) stole the routing and account numbers from the real check which was stolen and fraudulently modified numerous checks for the same amount with different payees names. That would be all of us. So, now I have to repay the bank all of the money that I cashed from the check so there was no winning at all, only LOSS! I hope some branch of law enforcement stops these crooks. More interestingly still, a week or so later this same Mike Hardy has the NERVE to send ANOTHER check from a DIFFERENT company (on the check and on the letterhead) for slightly more money! However, the claim that I had won a great deal of money was the same. The claims agent this time was listed as Oscar Williams. So I call this number (same area code as Mike Hardy) and this Oscar Williams sounded a whole lot like Mike Hardy. In any case, this guy should be arrested and jailed. DONT FALL FOR THIS SCAM!

In nearly all cases, if you deposit the check it will be refused by the originating bank. These are very authentic looking forgeries, but they are forgeries nonetheless.

Yes, I received letter and did cash the check. To the tune of 3997.09! However, the people then wanted
Me to send a wire to england for 3100. Definitely a scam and I hope there isn't any
Negative consequences for my cashing my check.

I wondered if it was a scam, I almost got scammed last year.  I looked it up on the Internet and the Better Business Bureau, but there was no address for CCB & Trust Finance Inc.  I did find the Life Products Corp on the internet - it's some health pills.  I could have used the money too - that is where they "get ya" I guess.  I even looked for and saw the watermark on the check.  The last one last year didn't have a watermark.

I received the same letter, talked to the man.  I have been wondering if it was a scam because I was "almost" scammed last year.  I was so hoping it wasn't a scam.  I even told him about it.  It looks like it's a fake letter.  I even saw the watermark on the check too.

received a letter from CCB and Trust Finance Inc. along with a check for $3,998.10 US.  Thought it was a scam but called back and received no answer.  This letter  said I was entitled to U.S. $200,000,000 but told
me not to proceed until I had spoken with Mike Hardy (my claim agent).  This is obviously a scam

I got the same letter.  Those people had been calling me on a daily basis asking me to confirm the address that they had of mine that happened to be wrong.  One time they even tried to get me to pay for shipping fo a prize and I refused.  They press you for answers and get rude when you don't give into them.  There's has to be a way to prosecute them and get cash for the harasment and trying to play people for fouls.

A mail notice of an award of $200,000 to be made included a check in the amount of $3,996.78 to be deposited in my checking account. I was advised to call Mike Hardy, my claims agent, who said to deposit the check in my checking account to cover taxes on the award.

In researching this I discovered a similar bogus letter had been received
by another person.

The letterhead read CCB & Trust Finance Inc..and originated from
102 Franklin St., Las Vegas, NV 89180
