I received a letter and a check from Financial Express Telling me that I had won $9, 8510.80. My claim number was WKT 08-05-98 and my agents name was David Coleand his number was [protected]. I tried to call the guy but the number was blocked or something. I tried it numerous times that day which was 08-23-2010. I took it to a local bank they couldn't run it because I didn't have a account with them But they also said it was fake from their point of view. The check had watermarks on it and a bank name but it still did'nt look right to me. I think they should stop sending these check out becasue they aren't going to get any money from anyone they send it to.
Today is september 29th 2010. I just received the same letter and check. It looked real and just when I was about to go to my bank to cash it I called the number on the letter. The person sounded very unprofessional and spoke with an accent (sounded like indian or latin). And I went in Google to look up "award letters from financial express" and saw that it is a Fake. I called the number back and the same person answered, I confronted him about this being a scam and that I looked it up on Google and found out. His response was "Google said this, let me go look it up Google."
