Description

Received a mail directing me to call Claims Manager: TEL #1-705-571-3379 and SECURITY CODE: -PCH-V0523-WIN. The claim is that I have won a second prize in the "100 Million Dollars Super Cash Giveaway Promotion" sponsored by Readers Digest, Mega Millions, and Multi-State Lottery Association. This claim amount is for $2.5 million. It instructs me to call the number, before I deposit the check, which I did out of curiosity. They then asked me to cash the check and call back once deposited. I did not proceed with either of these instructions. Also, Richie Jenkins is listed on the letter as "Chief Financial Officer"
