I got a check in the mail for 2,300 dollars from this place saying a won a lotto normally i would just thorw it away but it looks to real to throw away. It says they sent me this amout to clear the taxes but if it was real i would just keep that and not send it back to them in hopes of getting the whole jackpot. I am almost postive it is a scam and I don't plan on depositng into my account if anything i would just take it to the bank for them to look at but not deposit it. Has anyone had anyone had an experince with this before any comments welcome thanks.

Sounds like a scam to me. There's probably some fine print somewhere, telling you what you're agreeing to by cashing the check. Look for it and read it.

Anything that sounds too good to be true probably is.

Can I or my family be physically injured by lottery fraud criminals?

Yes! You can be physically injured and even killed by lottery fraud criminals. They are very dangerous people. So far, physical injury, kidnapping, and murder have only occurred in West Africa and South Africa. Some people who travel to South Africa to take possession of their [false] winnings have terrible things happen to them. People who travel to West Africa (Nigeria and neighboring countries) have also been beaten, kidnapped, or murdered.

So far, we have not heard that lottery criminals have injured anyone outside of West Africa and South Africa, but if you are being threatened, please go HERE. ^ Top
