Sound like the same story as everyone else.  The letter and check were horribly wrong.  Routing number in the wrong place, Clive Cliff & Co was stollen from Cliff Clive Consulting, the Secu Credit Union address was just an ATM, the amount of check didnt match the amount on the letter.  What a joke!

S C A M   S C A M   S C A M   S C A M   S C A M   S C A M   AND SO ON.

This is a scam through and through.  Report this company to your State's Attorney General's Office, so we can shut these people down - for good.  The way it was mailed was even inappropriate - no return address on the outside of the envelope; a regular stamp and not metered business mail or bulk mail or pre-paid.  Any company asking you to deal with Moneygram or Western Union is a criminal enterprise.  DO NOT BE FOOLED!  Thank God we now have the Internet where these people can be exposed!

warning warning be awear if you get litter from someone with check doin,t cash the check its scam they let you cash the check then they want you to sent it to them by wester union or money gram its all lie the name is kim somthing and there # is 8775716411

I received a check from the same company.  The check was for 2989.00.  The check looks legit but after reading all of this - I know it's a scam.  Debbie Wills is the contact name and it's signed by Sally Woodbine.  How do you report these types of scams?
I wasn't called I was sent a letter and a check.

Gee I also received a letter with a check for $3,987 from the same company.  The check itself looks pretty legit.  Likely that it would bounce though.  The letter came with a claim number saying that I am the lucky winner of the "UK & NORTH AMERICAN CONSUMER PROMOTIONAL" and that my entry (which I never submitted by the way) has been approved for a lump sum of $78,000.  The check for $3987 was to pay for the Non-Resident Govt. Service Tax (GST) and Insurance.  Wow they've got that much money to go around giving away to random people!  The internet is a great way to expose these frauds isn't it?

A friend of mine received a letter with a $3,987 check inside. It's definitely a scam. The name and address of the company is: Consumers Promotion Inc. (North American Direct Sweepstake Sponsored by Sodexco Inc. and Affiliated Company) 80 Seymour Street, Hartford, CT 06102. I will report them to the BBB in Hartford, CT. Do not cash check and send any money! This is mail and check fraud.

Recieved letter and check of 3, 987.00 in mail  call " Beverly Willis" she will prompt you to next step. I said sure I will mail you the check back she hung up immediately after . Why would I pay taxes on money I havent recieved , Sounds fishey .

The same thing happened to me today. The amount on the check is $3,987 but the letter attached refers to $3,899 --- cheating without quality control.

Its called Mail and Tax Fraud
The scam is "they" need money  . The means is tricking you into trading their fraudulent paper for your real money order or bank transfer .
if they needed money , they could withhold it if they had it .
if the government required them to pay your tax on the winnings , the government would authorize them them to withhold that amount .
the government gets their taxes from them or from you , it doesn't use a middleman .
Never send the governments money to someone other than the government .

Got out $3,987 check and letter too. If you look at the check closely it says void in the background print.

I also recieved the letter! The people were very rude and you could tell they were scam artists!

Thanks for your message. I received the similar letter ....same
$ , telepiohne#,name , plain envelope,...   etc. The letter says I won from drowing.

Received bogus letter telling me I won a lottery I did not enter. Sent me a counterfeit check for $3,987 dollars and told me that by calling 877-571-6411 and asking for "KIM NINO" I could get the rest of my winnings of $71,000.  All I had to do was wire them $2999.80 to pay the Non-Resident tax.
