I got a chq too. $3750.00. On the royal bank from sun life. The crooks er I mean they want me to send them a western union money transfer of $2280.00 to the Europe (sic) I will be handing this in to the police fraud division. Or go to Dubai and pick up my winnings. Ya right.
A fraudelant check with the telephone number of 289-807-0011 was received. The “National Lottery” asked the person to then send money via Western Union (cash only) to pay taxes.
It would take at least 4 weeks before the bank would find the check was a fraud. No police report was issued- due to the intelligent citizen not sending money.
Remember, if it seems too good to be true- IT ISN"T!
This fraud occurs every day throughout the world.
