Well I called my bank this morning and talked to them about the check. They said it went through. So the moneys there. I'm not gonna mess with it right now, but it cleared they said with no problem. If someone calls for the next step let me know, I cant get hold of my lady, and her mail box is full.

As Armac said, DON'T touch the money! It will take the check weeks or even months to come back as fake, and when it does, your bank will be coming after you for the money!

It has not cleared, your bank has given you provisional access to the money, when it is returned, and it will be, the bank will want their money back.

What is the amount of the checks you are receiving?

I don't know, but googling the amount brought up THIS little gem:
Quote:
Sheriff Dale Elsen reported that a Marshall County resident had received what appeared to be a cashier's check from Pacer Global Logistics. Elsen said it appeared to be a sweepstakes scam. The check was written for $2962.30 and it was turned over to the sheriff's office

Anybody follow up on this?

I recieved a check today for the same amount as the rest of you, with Vanessa Moore as my agent.

I'm thinking about calling Vanessa and telling her I cashed the check and the funds are available...has anyone done this yet?

So i guess this is just a scam to get people into debt? The checks coming back fake after the money is spent, and even worse if the person cashes the check, then gets the $47,000 dollar check and does the same...

My wife received one of those letters in the mail today. We checked out online and got ahold of the phone number for the bank that the check was supposidly drafted from, and called them. As soon as the customer service rep. heard the name of the company, she told us to destroy it becuase it was a fraud. DO NOT DEPOSIT THIS CHECK!!!!

The company used the bank name on the check without actually holding an account there. Apperently there have been several reports of this company, and the bank is in the process of reporting it as a scam to the gov.

Here's an update:

I called Vanessa back and told her that I deposited the check and that the funds were available. She instructed me to go to the nearest Western Union and make out a check in the amount of $2810.50 and mail it to:

Connie Tecor
6811 Huntridge
Calgary, Alberta T2K4A1

After "Connie" recieves the check, she supposedly gives me a confirmation number, in which I have to return back to Vanessa. Then, Vanessa will send me the rest of my winnings.

The way this scam works, is after the funds are available in your bank, the average joe thinks, hey this is for real! With that in their head, they don't hesitate to send the money to Connie. Well after you've sent the money Western Union, a couple weeks later, the check comes back as a fake or counterfeit, and your held liable for the missing funds. Connie is off with $2810.50.

Hopefully the information i've provided will aid in the capture of these theives.

Hi guys. I got the same letter, same amount, same company. My "claims agent" is Vanessa Moore. The number given can not accept any more messages. The scammers have probably bailed on it.

I called the company that my check is from, "Perma-Bound" of Roselle, Illinois. The rep I talked to was very helpfull. She informed me that many of their checks had been stolen and that the athorites were investigating the matter. She asked for my name and the check number which I gave her. She also told me that she had recived several similar calls from people like me. I've been asked to fax a copy of the check, letter, and envelope to them.

If the name in the upper left of your check says "Perma-Bound" you can help out by faxing a copy of it and the letter to:

Diane Reynolds
Toll free fax: 1 800 551 1169

Very disapointing.. :roll:
