My parents received the same letter and "check" from Trustnet. Their scam uses a bunch of different addresses to confuse the reader (or cover their tracks):
- The return address on the envelope was Metro Hall Station, 55 John St., Toronto, ON M8V3C3 (I looked this up, it's a Toronto Civic center).
- The Trustnet address on the letterhead is 4333 Charles Drive, Salt Lake City (misspelled with SALTLAKE all one word), telephone 1-647-891-7807.
- The Claim Agent is listed as Nicole Newman, phone number 1-416-834-1856 (a Toronto area code).
- The Tax Agent (the person you're supposed to send $3,880 to) is listed as Sara Jean, 453 2nd Avenue, Ottawa, Canada, M6R3C5 (which Google Maps can't locate).
- The letter is "signed" by M. Disher (Vice President), phone number 647-863-2209.
- The enclosed check for $3,990.00, made out in my father's name, is supposedly written on the account of Helmsman Management Services LLC, 185 Decker Ct, Irving, TX 75062, from Fleet National Bank in Hartford, CT (which no longer exists because it was bought out by Bank of America in 2007).
I got one too saying I won a sweepstakes for 150,000. I've been looking on this site and I found out they are using the same scam on different phone numbers. Don't cash the check they give you. They will scam you out of your own money.

I received a letter and check from whoever. This seems to be a scam! The letter states its from trustnet and the check is from R.E.I which is a clothing company. When I asked the "agent" nicole andrews how she gt my name she stated from one of the stores I shopped from which is impossible I use cash!
