My stepdad received this same letter with all the same information. He knew it was a scam but the check looked so real! These people are really good at what they do! When I looked up the address that was given on the letter head it came up with some garage door company. It's so sad that some people might fall for this. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is!
I received a letter in the mail from PR FINANCIAL anouncing that I was a winner from a CHARITABLE JACKPOT DRAWSin the amount of $700,000. They also sent me a check for $2,987.78 to pays for any fees relating to the money. It had an address in Texas that belonged to Waters& Kraus Lawyers, but this # is from canada and the postage is also from Canada. I called James Rob, operations manager and the phone# gave me a message that said it was full. Other names in the letter were Loe Terry, chief financial Officer Ph and Louis Tu accounts manager.
I also received a letter announcing the same thing saying that I won $700,000 and they sent me a check for $3654 to pay any fees. Seems a little scamish!

An obvious scam. They want you to get the money to them before the check clears, which it won't! You, and the company who's name is on the check are victims.
It is useless and morally wrong to attempt to cash a check you suspect as being fraudulent. First of all, it won't clear and your bank will charge you a fee for a returned check. If it somehow falls through the cracks and clears, it's still fraudulent. Your bank will have to return the money and will deduct it from your account.
The proper thing to do is provide copies of what you received to your local post office and your state's attorney general (address easily found on the internet). They will take it from there.
Received a Letter in the mail from Rolland Investment & Company with an address of 5644 LBJ FRWY Dallas, TX 75240. The letter reads that I was being announced as winner of the CHARTIABLE JACKPOT.....I must respond by December 21 or the cash prize will be returned to the JACKPOT. Enclosed was also a check for $4,230 to pay documentation, legal, insurance or precessing fees that I may encounter. I was to call one of their agents to initiate the claims process and activate the check. Powell Lewis is listed as Acounts Manager, Chris Edwards is listed as Operations Manager and Justin Adams as Chief Financial Officer Ph. The phone number given was 778.316.1805. After checking this is a cell phone from Vancouver and the address does not exist in Dallas. I also could not find this business's name in the Dallas Yellow Pages....Following all of this I found your web site with similar stories.
