another scam surfaces...

at least one local fell for it -almost!

letter comes from mega 2000 imperial random draws. bogus checks are enclosed with a request for victims to return a large portion of the money for "international clearance fees".

if you get this letter, don't fall for it. call the sheriff 770.358.5159.

I think no one should have to bear the burden that is placed on them by a scam. I think everyone should remember what we learned in school. Cavet Emptor = Let the buyer beware

I just received one of the exact letters and deposited the check but i have notified my bank and all is well. I am notifying the companies on the check and the US Postal Inspection Service and you can also find out more scams on the website www.fraudwatchrs.org

Thanks for the info.

Why call someone stupid? All persons have that desire for something for nothing. You are not different, you have that same desire. You make it like the pot calling the kettle a name worse than the pot. Yet they are close to the same.

Thats the problem with people now....they think they can get something just handed to them. As many scams that have surfaced thru the mail or on the internet, people should know by now that its all a scam. WAKE UP PEOPLE DONT BE SO RETARDED!

If it seems too good to be true, it usually is!

Why anyone would expect total strangers to send them money is beyond me.
