I just got in and received my mail and I found this little envelope addressed to me saying "NOTICE TO ALL ENTRANTS" and had a deadline saying June 3, 2010. The letter said that it was trying to reach me regarding my $1, 100, 000.00 prize entry that I didn't even know I entered into. It said that I had to call the number and submit the registered prize entry number. I didn't. I figured before I didn anything, I would look it up on the internet to see if it was legit. IT'S NOT! I should've known because I haven't entered any contest recently. How do they find our information? It's a disgrace that people would do this.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I just got my $1.1 million dollar sweepstakes letter. I didn't enter. Letter looked fake. need the money though. But not that bad. Quick search on internet, nothing but complaints.
I received my Strike it rich today [protected]) and I have until 6-16, 2011 to respond. I am like the rest of you what sweepstakes and when did I enter a sweepstakes. I am sick and tired of these scammers, not only receiving them in the mail, I also get them via e-mail. When are they going to get tired or caught scamming.
Wow, I read all the comments here and thankfully I didn't call the number they provided. Same as everybody, I didn't enter into any contest which makes me doubt big time. Honestly, the amount did blind me at first into hoping that I'd win. But with all the crisis our economy is experiencing to date, it's really necessary to check it out if its legit. And searching online is really helpful. What made me doubt more was, the necessity of providing your address for verification. Nowadays, you should not be giving out any information to anybody you do not know. Thanks to the one who started this thread--kevinanglo90.
I just received the letter today (5-27-11). My first red flag was it said SECOND NOTICE on the envelope. I know I had not received a first notice as I open and look at all mail I get. Got scammed by BestBuy earlier this year so I check all offers on the internet. Lesson learned.
I recieved this letter today (5-11-11), and my first thought was "When did I enter into some contest?" So I figured I'd hop on the internet and when I was typing the name into Google... I was only able to type "Strike I" before it automatically popped up as a popular search. I knew right then this wasn't legit. Gotta say... I was crossing my fingers it was, but nope. I could really use $1.1 million. haha Couldn't we all?
I just received the same scam(5-10-11), I knew it was a scam right away. For 1 I knew I hadn't entered into any contest recently, and the look of the letter is what clued me in next. Thank you for having websites like this. I have had pretty convincing looking letters come in the mail before, and if it weren't for websites like this I may have fallen for it. Though I have learned as well in the past, if it sounds too good to be true, then 9 times out of 10 it is. For the one above me who did call, you can report them to the local police dept. it is a scam and they can get the word out to anyone else & be reported.
I HAD A SCAM RAN ME ALSO THE COMPANY SENT ME A CHECK FOR ABOUT 3500 AND TOLD ME TO CASH IT. THE THING WAS NOT TO GO TO A BANK OR LET ANYONE KNOW WERE OR WHY I RECEIVED IT AND SEND THEM ONLY LIKE 1300. ONCE I GIVE THEM THE MONEY. THEY WOULD DELIVERY MY 50, 000 WITH MARSHALL ESCORT. I CALL THE BANK IT SUPPOSES TO HAVE COME FROM THE FUNDS WASN'T THERE. I REPORTED THEM TO THE BBB IN WASH. DC. YOU NOW THE RESULT...
I just received my letter in the mail today (04/28/2011) I just entered to win one million dollars.(RIGHT) (WRONG) I havent entered into anything. This is a SCAM. America is already broke as hell, and then he comes someone else to take the little pocket money we do have left, after bills and all. Someone really needs to stop these people from doing things like this. On the other hand if I want a chance at winning a million dollars, I'll play the Lottery. Posted by sick of scams in America.
This one is all about selling magazine subscriptions. It has been circulating for years. I called it a couple of years ago. I think they're harmless, but I still wouldn't give them any information.
I just got off the phone with the Strike it Rich telemarketers, not one but two. I told both that was not interested in purchasing anything, just entering the sweepstakes. Ha! They would not take no for an answer. I kept refusing and they kept talking. Finally, I was told to stop talking over them and was told I was rude for constantly saying No. Goodye was my answer.
Same here. Just received it in the mail today (02/04/2011). I've seen these scammer's before, and, from what I have heard, although they do process subscriptions it's to those that they ONLY want you to subscribe to and NO winning of any so called sweepstakes comes out of it. This whole scam has been going on for a good number of years at that. Don't we already have enough scams going around these days as it is? We don't need these rip offs trying to 'cash in' as well!
At least they did not ask for $20.00 processing fee.
Idid the same as you looked it up on the internet because I didnt enter any contest through them very fake looking letter screams scam
