chances are if you didn't enter anything - you didn't win anything, and it's probably just spam mail. I wouldn't click on any links, they could lead you to a virus

It's a scam. Here's how to tell:

What postage did the company that sent it pay? Was it "bulk rate", or "pre-sorted" or something like that? Was there a letter included that looked like it was written just to you, and hand signed, with a non-800 phone number on it?

If it was a real prize, they would send it to you priority mail or fedex. They would explain how you entered, and how the prize was chosen.

If you didn't enter, it's not a real prize.

It's like those pop-up ads that say you have won $1,000,000 because you're the 6,356th visitor to their website...

Don't do anything with the check--throw it away and move on. Since there is so much contradiction, consider it trash.

Also: do you remember entering a drawing? If you don't, it's a scam.

Anything that sounds too good to be true, is almost always too good to be true.

SCAMS, all of them

Toss them when they come in the mail, and delete them when they come to your email.

This is definitely a scam. Do not send any money. You should report this attempted fraud to PhoneBusters through <>.http://www.phonebusters.ca>.

>>it says i have won a big sum of money<<

of course it's a scam...

It's a scam. If you didn't enter any of these drawings, how could you have won? You can't. As you said you never even heard of these programs before. So how can you win a drawing from a company you never heard of til now?
I presume these checks are for the taxes? If they are, tear 'em up. You never have to pay anything upfront or pay taxes before you claim your winnings.
The checks are fraudulent and if you deposit them and the bank finds out they're phony, you'll owe all that money back. You lose twice!

That's a new one. Usually they come from the Netherlands.

Do not respond to them or give them any information about yourself. It's a pure SCAM play!

Hi My sister got one of those two weeks ago. She called the number and they told her that they will send her a check for $2,500 and she needs to send them back $2,000 of it to cover for the transfer expenses. She got the check deposit it and wired them through western union the $2,000 (they told her that the extra $500 are for her to keep so she can trust them). Luckily my sister did not give them the wire confirmation number for the money she send to them because the check came back as "fraudulent check" and bounced in her account. She was able to recover her own money but she thought it was real too because she called the number and they were telling her that they are a bank from Canada and they will wire the money for her from Europe. Its all a big scan-do not send them money.

Check the stamps on the mail. If says presorted Standard, or from a non-profit orginizaition... it is junk.. First class mail is not junk.

I would say scam.call the number and I bet they ask for your social security # and other personal info. or if you cash the check you are really cashing a loan. Or an old illigal practice now is when a phone company sent you a $5.00 check and if you cashed it you were agreeing to switch to their service which was expensive.
Crown Assoc is a UK group of cops and detectives and it sounds like they are playing off a good name


fragle2c
take the cheque to the bank and have it verified
if good cash it

Report it to the postal authorities. Do not try to cash the check. It will end up costing you all of your savings. Take it to the bank and ask to see an officer of the bank. Let him handle it. If it is real, he will tell you. But you can bet it's a scam.
