I received this letter yesterday, I almost fell for it. Something told me to check the company out if it was la gite, that's how I found this site. The Federal Government needs to do something about this. Well at least the US Postal Service needs to find a software that they can use to find out if a piece of mail is from a la gite company.

I understand this is probably a scam, for one how easy the stupid question is, but they are not asking to provide any personal information. Does anybody have any information on this, like someone who sent the letter back?

I received this letter today, I also thought why such an easy puzzle. All they wanted was a signature but my question is what are they going to do with my signature. I decided to Google the company to see if it was a scam. I glad I did, I see so many people has received the same letter but never no check.

To whom it may concern:
My thought behind this, remember some time ago the phone calls people were getting wanting to open accounts in the US which they could not get to work too easy so they decided to try this. Sending this simple letter for your signature so you can win $5000. No doubt they would send the check which would probably be bogus. But when you deposit it into your bank they will have your bank information and in turn be able to rob you. This is my thought because nobody but nobody gives money away.

I received the exact same letter with the promise of check fro $5, 000 and immediately knew it was a hoax. The firm being based in Australia probably makes it extremely difficult for the Fed's to do anything about it.???

I just recieved the same mailing! I did the search on the web too and found it on BBB and found out that their is writing on the back of the letter! It is so light gray that I didn't even notice! It says that the winner of the $5, 000 which will be announced Dec. 30, 2010, will be required to send a copy of their passport or identification to the sponsor to confirm age and identity...can you say suspicious?!?! According to the BBB it is a scam and the BBB said one person did recieve a check and then was asked to send $3500 back to enter in to recieve $50, 000. So they did and never recieved anything else plus he didn't wait for the check to clear and the $5000 one was fake! So he paid $3500 of his own money! Here is the link to the BBB site http://www.bbb.org/centralohio/business-reviews/advance-fee-brokers/ubi-payment-services-in-columbus-oh-70051328

I have received two of these letters in the past week, both addressed to me. I presumed they were scam Postal Letters that can be sent to the US postal service, as they used the postal service for fraudulent purposes. I've had to file these kinds of complaints before. I almost didn't catch the light writing on the back of the portion to be returned either, but it is readable if you catch it in the right light. If you want to send a complaint to the US Postal service, they will probably file further complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, and Antiterrorist Organizations Worldwide. These types of things are to get your information and to get signatures, banking information, addresses for passports, driver's license numbers all for the purpose of trying to get you to give as much information, and money in some cases for obtaining money... as you've probably seen in emails, or other letters. These tell you not to tell anyone, but to send money for this or that via Western Union. Those funds are collected not for the tariffs, fees, etc, for you to get your money, (like the Caritas Lottery), but are a way of collecting money for terriorist operations worldwide. Nigerian originated letters, at times have required the winners to fly to Nigeria, where instead of obtaining their funds, but to be murdered for their trouble. I ignore all of these attempts that people use to try to get me to be someone's heir, when they left a large estate, with no heir... I have never in my life seen the things I have seen in the past 4 years... a

i also received this unbelievably stupid letter saying i won $5, 000 if I could answer a question a 5 year old could answer, which was 20 +5=25 21 23, circle the right answer, sign and return in envelope provided. I am not stupid and I am mad about this!!! These people need to be caught and put behind bars!!! I also got another letter from a different fraud company just last week. This one said I was guaranteed to win $5, 000, 000 if I sent them a check for $10.00 to ensure prompt payment of my check. I am so sick of these mail order scams. I enter alot of sweepstakes, and I happen to know, you can't just win a prize unless you actually enter the contest or sweepstakes, and anybody who asks you to have to pay for a prize, is not la gite!!
