What business has this number?
| tradamori 2009-11-10 19:49:01 Unknown |
so what ever came of you cashing that check?
| tradamori 2009-11-10 19:48:09 Unknown |
so for those of you that cashed the check back in august, have there been any reprocussions?
| chuck 2009-09-01 23:10:44 Unknown |
the number we got, was later disconnected, i guess this must be prepaid cell phone, it seems that they are changing there number when someone is in doubt or suspicious. prepaid cell service you can activate a phone without using your real name. i wouldnt deposit those checks, a price is to pay if done so, all is focused around cashing those checks and sending a third to someone else before getting your so-called winning payout....beware!!!!

I received the same letter, with the same ticket number and dollar amount. The number to call on the letter is 905-598-3512. Watch out for that number too! No one answers when I call. I was pretty sure it was a scam when I got the letter in the mail but I tried to double check anyway since the check looks legit.
| chuck 2009-08-29 10:13:26 Unknown |
and yes Diane our winning number was 2119065

I got the same letter with the same check. I went to the bank and deposited the check. It cleared. But I've done some reading about money order scams and now I dont know what to do...
| chuck 2009-08-24 01:45:48 Unknown |
theres a typo in my last post, "logos on the letter head are NOT raised (bummpy feeling)"
| chuck 2009-08-24 01:43:09 Unknown |
this is definitely a scam, 1-905-598-5734, dont waste your time with this, we went through the same thing, you guys have the same info we have. letter was suspicious from IGM financial, business letters, logos on the letter head are raised (bummpy feeling) on the paper, this didnt have that, the IGM logo was slighty faded as if it was copied onto the paper. also this winning was sent Via US Mail and not through a courier (UPS, FEDEX)... I called BBVA Compass, it is a scam just report it http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

Hello,
I wrote to Compass Bank today, after receiving this same letter and check. The bank wrote back to me and said that it is definitely a scam, and the checks aren't coming from them.
I called the Andrea Johnson, and she said to call her back in an hour. I am calling her, and I'm going to let her know that she was reported.
| virginia 2009-08-11 20:29:22 Unknown |
I just got the same letter and i talked to the girl and the check looks legit my banks going to hold it for 7 days and the company is legit but the address is not i called this number for the company 12049430361 and there is a andrea johnson listed in life financial but they are not actually IGM thats their parent company but the person who answered couldnt give me the parent companys number and they didnt know if they had a main switchboard???? Anyways Im suppose to call this lady back to see where to send the 2985.00 back to. keep you posted!!!!
| diane 2009-08-11 01:55:40 Unknown |
was your winning number 2119065
| diane 2009-08-11 01:54:59 Unknown |
was your winning ticket number 2119065?
| diane 2009-08-11 01:52:35 Unknown |
i also got the same letter with a check. the bank on the check is a real bank and the igm financial is also a real company.. so how do we really find out if the check is for real or not?????funny how all the dollar amounts are the same.!!! what was the ticket number you won on 2119065??
| Justin 2009-08-11 00:23:18 Unknown |
I got the same letter, same amount, $3985.56. I did some looking and it looks like this is a long running scam. The old number was: 1-905-598-5173. Don't cash it. Take it to your bank and report it.
The check really does look legit. It has all of the security features and everything.
| dlady 2009-08-11 00:13:50 Unknown |
Yes, I got the same letter today exactly written the same. What a rip! Tried to call the number, nobody answered, of course. Thanks Christina for adding this.
| Christina 2009-08-10 22:45:22 Unknown |
Did not get a call but this was the call back number given. They sent a check for $3,985.56 with a letter saying I had won $55,000 USD. The letter came with no return address from Canada and the Company listed on the letter was IGM Financial. Like other letters like this I have read about the contact person Andrea Johnson, the promotion manager that signed the letter Lloyd Formerly and the signature on the check C Mantz are all different. The cashiers check was from Compass Bank Birmingham, AL. The check looks legit.
