Fraud Alert - Part 2 (Read Part 1 first) The letter stated that her name was drawn from a list of people that had responded on lineto customer evaluations and had been entered into this drawing. Included in the letter was a bank check for $3000.00 drawn on a ChicagoBank. Since the client had entered several of these customerevaluations, she thought that this might be real. The only catch togetting the $90,000 was that the "winner" was to prepay the taxes due($2800.00) before she could receive the remaining $87,000.00. To claimthe other $87,000.00 she was to call a number for instructions on howand where to send her tax obligation. Note, that although the letterwas from New York, New York, the area code for the telephone number wasOntario Canada. Of course the $2800.00 would be easy to pay since shehad just received a check for $3000.00. GO TO PART 3
