I too received a letter in the mail today, August 15th, 2011. States the exact information listed above except did not give a particular name to call, just the number. I contacted the bank fraud dept. on for the bank listed on the check and was told it was definitely a scam. Also did a search for the payee on the check and left a phone number to be called. States Corrosion Resistant Technologies, Inc. 11345 Saybrook Lane, Chagrin Falls, Ohio. 44023. Also contacted local police and am filing a report tomorrow. "But for the time being we are having fun playing the game. We are going to continue our phone calls and ask numerous questions and continue to lead them into thinking I am interested. Then at the end of 4 or 5 days will snap on them. |

I am posting this correspondance to the A.G. of the U.S. and also the Postal Service and the F.B.I.
I lost "BUCKS" on this one.
I fell for the brand name 'CORROSINRESISTANT TECHNOLOGIES INC. which I have done business
before $3000.00+ and thought it reputable. I did not detect the 'VOID' watermark until I scanned a copy
of the check. the bank put a '
hold' on my account and i suffered substantial penaltys.I do not care how you spell it, , , , Igot screwed
If I ossibly can I shall 'KNOCK THEIR ' DICK' INTO THE DIRT>>>>>

I got one today from Cambridge Scientific Corp with a call back to a Janet Green at Shoppers point of sale sweepstakes in Las Vegas. Thought it was strange to have three names and a check from a corporation instead of a Lottery Holding company. Definitely reporting it. I sure would love to know how they get our information. Mine says it was based on an electronic purchase I made. |
|
|
I am a lucky one too! I got the same letter to call Jason WIlliams. What a crock. Who do we contact to make this stop? |
|
|
i received one dated 10/26/11. it was addressed to me under my maiden name so i was immediately on alert. mine said to call Sharon Barber at 1-289 8882900, where is that? |
|
|
I have received a check from Consumer Research and marketing However the check is from Warner Music Group services. What a scam. |
|
|
This information is very helpfull, because i just got a letter also saying i won 25, 500. the letter is from new york. but the check is from iowa. and the check was signed by a different person not from the person to call. |
