Glad I Googled the phone number....got an authentic looking check from LaSalle National Bank, with Flex-n-Gate Battie (should be spelled Battle so knew this was fishy) Creek, Battle Creek, MI. I have heard of this scam but didn't realize how authentic the check looks! Please beware!! Also, if you read the letter carefully, there are grammar and punctuation errors which is a dead giveaway. Plus, the "label" on the envelope with my name and address was put on sideways and the stamp was from Canada. Others beware!! Don't cash this check!
Just received the Final Compensation / Awards Notification Letter from Tampa Green Consultants. I knew this was a scam when I opened the letter. Plain white envelope with a Canada stamp on the front. The letter head is from micro soft word and they also send a very authentic looking check.
If it's to good to be true it probably is.
Authenic looking check from ACCC Insurance Company and Amegy Bank of Texas both out of Houston, Texas. White Business Envelope - Canadian stamp - Printed Label. Letter head marked TAMPA GREEN CONSULTANTS final compensation/awards notification representing J.C.Penny, Walgreen's Wal-Mart, Home Depot, Kmart, Best Buy. DO NOT CASH CHECK THROUGH WESTERN UNIONS AS DIRECTED - THIS IS A SCAM!
Same letter and check this is from Best Mark Reaserch Marketing Group
TAMPA FL. Final compensation award notification. Aslo the Check is from Advance Audio Visual Sale, Inc.
Received same final compensation/awards notification letter from Best Mark Research Marketing Group, 2722 W. Waters Ave, Tampa, FL 33614. Wondered whether this is even a legit address so I googled it and it showed a strip mall. This address belongs to an Allstate Insurance Company. Laughed so hard when letter stated that they have made many unsuccessful attempts to contact me and this is the first letter of its kind reaching me. And they sent an authentic looking check to pay the taxes on my winnings from KWH Pipe [California] 2003 Corp, 5225 Canyon Crest Dr., Bldg 300, Ste 353, Riverside, CA 92507. This business name is legit for a business operating in Algonquin, IL. I can't really trace the address other than it looks like a type of an industrial park or shopping area. Cannot determine if this bldg 300 or suite number really exist. Smells like a fish, it is a fish!!!!!
