Description

I received a letter from Mr Green, the underwriting manager for the Economic Injury Relief Center. The letter was addressed to me at my home address. The letter stated that the underwriting department had just issued pre-approval to me for a single, reduced monthly payment plan. In the body of the letter was a jpeg of a check number 23000 for $85000 made out to me, which the letter claimed was a ready to use check. There was no bank name on the check, however, the routing number was 012040186. The account number was listed as 000x00190, which is obviously not a legitimate account number. The letter named the finance department, Mr Green and John Franklin as contacts, all with email addresses @economicinjuryrelief.com. There was a post it note. The note was addressed to me. It instructed me to call John for relief with the phone number 844-889-8912.
