Description

My 95 year old Mother was mailed a letter with a return address of East York Centre-850 Coxwell Ave.- East York, ON M4C 5 R1. It was mailed to her old address in IL and was forwarded to her new address here in MO. The letter was dated Feb 25, 2025 and was received by her Mar 14, 2025. I, her son, called the 800-745-0381 and was connected to a broken English speaking person named Robert Harris. I called just to ask if it was a scam and he “assured” me that it wasn’t. He told me to cash the check of $2,595.90 and to call the number for further information for what to do with the Processing and Insurance Fees of $2000.00 and the $595.90 would be deducted from the total $450,000.00 of her “winnings”. Yeah right, I was born at night but not last night. I hate to think what would happen if anyone attempts to cash that bogus check from Ocean State credit union with voided signatures.
