I received a letter and a check for $4,800.00. the letter stating that i am a 2nd prize winner in the second category of the USA Mega (under the international Sweepstake) draw help on August 16, 2009. The serical number ******* attached to your name matched the first five lucky winning numbers********** and subsequently won US $485,000.00. Avofit financial Inc. has been assigned by the international sweepstake organization to inform all winners and pay them off their money. Payments will be made by a certified check which will be delivered by our special courier company.
My daughters boyfriend got the same exact letter! What makes me think it is a scam is... No return address....No return receipt....etc. I think I will get in touch with our state representative. We are from Connecticut..IT IS A TOTAL SCAM

I got a letter also, saying the same thing. I called and the person told me to deposit my check and then call him back. I think it must be a scam and they have some way to access your bank account when you deposit the check. I have concerns that the check would bounce anyway.
