This is the SECOND time in as many months that I have received one of these checks (first one regarding Canadian lottery and now this one for Secret Shopper Inc. to "shop" Western Union). Wondering who to turn them into... or if any law enforcement agency even care. I have ripped them up in the past but this is criminal and I'm wondering how crooks got my name or would think this family would be stupid enough to fall for their crap (Sorry if someone is reading this who has fallen victim... no offense).

I received the same type of letter today as well.  You know it's a scam when the letter says, "For security reasons, you are advised to keep your winning information confidential, until your money is remitted to you..." Which means don't tell anyone until after we have drained your bank account.  Thankfully I have a brain and did not fall for this one.

I received the same lette  and a cashiers check for $3,650.25.  It is a scam.  I looked up "Spanish Lottery" and it is nothing like what I received.  I am glad to know I am not the only one to receive it.

I got a letter today from GRAND CHARITY STAKES, INC FROM ONTARIO CANADA, for an anticipated amount of $3650.25 they said i wont a spanish lottery for $125,000 that sumed up a total of 4 million dollars, and was presented among other 32 winners. It tells me to call Vincent McDougal before I deposit or cash the check at the number 647-932-1861.... I am saying this because i dont want someone to fall for this stupid scam. I know we all need the money and the economy is bad, but you will cash the check, or deposit it, it's gonna come back as fradulent and you will have to tag along a fraud for the rest of your life. SO DON'T BE STUPID AND DONT FALL FOR THIS STUFF!!!!

I just received the same bogus letter and knew it was a scam...it's ridiculous!! The unfortunate thing is that some people do fall for these things and get raked out of their life savings...please DO NOT cash the check, people!!

How to tell it's a scam:

1. I never entered a lottery, especially when I don't live in Canada
2. It says to deposit a check that is more than the supposed 95,000 you won
3. It says to call someone (who knows who it could be)
4. Why on earth would I have to pay the tax from a check someone supposedly gave me?? Makes no sense. If you win a prize through a legitimate lottery, the taxes would be taken out first!

Letter was from Digital Globe Corporation
242 Main Street, Hamilton ONT L8N 1H5

Letter & check info:
Juan Robertson ( Promotions Manager)
Claim Agent: Jerry Kalos - Phone # 1 647 401 3678
Check from Salin Bank
400 Main Street
Lafayette, IN 47901

And, says I won it through Publisher's Clearing House - didn't enter in the first place!

I also have a check for $3650.25 from a Salin Bank Re: Robert Shafer also signed by him . Digital globe is not at this address. The person I talked to Vincent Javia said to deposit in my account and to call him when the check posted. Ya right!! These guys are scams and I hope they rot in hell for what they are doing to innocent people out there. I will pusue this in a much different way. Hope you call back Vincent, I'd like to talk to you!!!!!

I received a check and letter just like this, and I just got off the phone with this crackhead named Larry - wanting me to send the money to Spain.  I let him finish with the instructions and then I let him know just how I felt about the scam he was pulling.  He did not want to hear what I had to say to him, so when I started, he hung up.  I really dont know the process or how legal this is, but I wish that someone would put a stop to them because what is gonna happen when they give some poor brooke elderly person a heart attack when they open this letter and think they have won that amount of money.  I think that they are in the same boat as Casey Anthony and they both belong in the bottom of a ocean with blocks tied around their ankles and some kind of food poured on them to make the fishes hungry.      This company (or so called company) needs to be put out of order period point blank.

Automatically believe that all of your comment about the letter when I checked it on internet. I teared up the letter. Eventhought I did talk with agent.  he was awful rude to say " I dont want to  speak with you with sign language" I agree that important to stay with job to earn money than lottery.

I received this letter from Tricom Incorporation, 5489 Eaton Dr, Kitchner, ON. N2B 1N9 with the same tel. num. The claims agent name is Larry Begali. I had called in regards to this and spoke with Larry, who sounded like he was from India. The letter was from Canada and the check was from a bank in Wisconsin for $3,650.25. I was very confused about this so I went to the bank to speak with a customer service. They told me exactly what NOT to do!!! I just hope "Larry" doesn't call me back:(

I have also received a letter TODAY saying that I won 95,000.00 with a check in the amount of 3,650.25 for taxes.I noticed some similarities and differences from Kevin's post above. the names on check promotion manager nad claims agent are different, but only slightly. Claims: Larry Begali, manager: Crystal Pickens, Check:Keith Whuck. Plus the check was issued out of Mid- Wisconsin Bank wiht remitter Caroline Braden. the address in Canada was different as well. Tricom Incorporation, 5489 Eaton Drive, Kitchner, ON. N2B 1N9 tel. # 1-905-781-3986 I played it safe and checked out the internet first and found this page and so knew it was fraudulent before I ever made the call. One other thing that tipped me off was that they took out 3,650.25 for tax fees then the next paragraphs states that tax fees are only 2,850.00!! Now tell me if that does not sounds hinky to you. THIS IS A SCAM TO GET YOUR BANK ACCOUNT INFO. DO NOT FALL FOR IT!!!

I was checking my mail, got a letter with a check in it.......I thought it was a scam cause the letter is from Canada and I did not enter a online lottery........Those people think we are all stupid and they said  that if they send out check to any one and lets see who will cash it........but no we are not stupid, we know how to read a letters and see where it is coming from.....Just remember everyone who gets a letter with a check always look into first before you try to cash it because you will be responsible for all the fee and bank fee if you cash it
