Hi, I just received a letter saying that I won a lottery of 130, 000.00 dollars and when I entered in the same information under CAPE CREST SECURITIES INC. and you will see the same story's on their and mine. It say's to call Mark Kerry or Lena Young and that my winning numbers are [protected] and that I can call [protected] and at the top it say's it's from 8 Park Street, London, England, WC 567T UK LOT NO. DTG 1734 TY Toll Free NO [protected]. You can go to the Cape Crest Securities Inc. to see the same exact stories but with a different company name. Please don't fall for the scam.

my husband received the exact same letter except it now says Paulson Crest Securities INC. and the contact name is Roy Wade or Lisa West. I am curious to see what happened to the people above who actually got a check and were going to consult with wells fargo about the validity of it.

What a horrible way to treat people because the people who answers these letters are the ones who really really need money and when they realize no money is coming its way to late because they more than likely sent money to get money never never do that if u won any money it's Free money. There are no fees attached to it These people need to be caught and lock away on the real for cruelty

I just received a letter today in the mail saying I won 130, 000 dollars.The letter was from PARKER CREST SECURITIES INC. I called the toll free number which is [protected]. I see he's changed his name to Mark Lee or ask for Mary Hill. he said to call him back when I receive the first check.These are my winning numbers [protected]. The address is 9 Page Street London, England WC 418 UK.This trips me out I'm all the in South Carolina can't scam me. Today's date is 9-8-2017.

Got my letter today from Lokett Crest Securities, Inc. Says drawing was held in England where head office is located. "You are approved for a lump sum of US@$130, 000.00 at no extra cost to yourself from our North American payment office located in Buffalo, New York should you claim in 3 weeks time frame. Sounds like a scam to me. From 9 Bank Street, London England, WC 418T UK

Mine looks legal so we will see if Wells Fargo cashes it they can't come after me cuz it was sent to me by Mark Dove
God I hope I can cash this cause God knows I need it and the saddest part it was issued to my 14 y/o son who's now VERY VERY upset and I'm a PISSED MOTHER!

My boyfriend just got a letter from a group called Silver Lotto Crest Securities Inc. stating he also won in US$130, 000.00 at the same address of 8 FED Street London England WC 987T UK...Thank you everyone who posted this address in their comments...This is a scam...They want bank routing numbers and social security numbers to process your winning within a quick deadline...DO NOT fall for this...As far as I'm concerned like the WC in the address says I'm flushing it down the Water Closet and soon...Please watch out for this scam and the one about the IRS... I was called and threatened by those people going so far as telling me the issued a warranty for MY arrest...So I waited and guess what I'm still free...And please remember the IRS will never contact you by phone... I wish you all the best and PROTECT yourselves from these and other scams...Keep posting this helps a out there...Thank You!

Still going on... 130, 000.00 same numbers [protected], Fordham Crest Securities INC on this one.. 8 FED Street London England WC 987T UK Toll-free number on this on [protected] international number +[protected] says to ask for Joe Fisher or Gina Maxx. Its just a scam to get money from you. If you talk to them they will more than likely say they will send you a check and to get the rest of your money you have to send money back to them. Don't fall for it. You didn't win anything and if you send them money you will never get it back...

These scams these days concern me greatly.How many widows or widowers, folks who don't know better and so on actually loose money to these thieves? Our new Washington Administration should address this. My letter was from Tenny Crest Securities, Inc., Same scam, different names, Kevin Williams or Tina Fisher as contacts.I won 130k also...I am going to send letter to Washington just for the heck of it. God bless you all!

Received the same letter from Solo Crest Securities. It is interesting that it appears that the one thing that they all have in common, other than of course scamming everyone is that it appears everyone someone drew the same lottery numbers.. So sad. All I can say is "Karma is a ###"

Mine came from "Solo Crest Securities" but everything else is more or less the same.

This is mail fraud, and this person need to be caught and imprisoned.

This letter is from Gala Crest Securities Inc. I have attached a photo of the letter for reference. DO NOT FALL FOR IT! Just some advice..

So it's continuing. ..I got my letter today & called. Gala Crest Securities. Fast talking Arabic - sounding man. So I will receive my 1st check whenever & supposed to call them. Haha! Glad I looked it up! Thank you all for your input. Gave me a heads up. I'll let the bank handle it when it gets here. $130k sure would have been great! I'll write more as it progresses.

Just received the exact same letter but new company name and contact names. Now Gala Crest Sweepstakes with Phil Fox and Pat Cruz. Cannot believe they've scammed so many that they are now hitting the West Coast, USA.

I, too, recieved this same letter from Bolt Crest Securities, Inc. I called the number as instructed (knowing this was a scam) and awaited my check. I received said check for $4, 950.00 three weeks later. My instructions were to call Mark Kerry when it arrived. When I called the [protected] number, it was no longer in service. However, the letter that came with the check gave the number [protected], and the return address was 2 Furr St. in London. So, I called this number and spoke with the same man I had before. He did not sound like any Englishman I had ever heard. I could barely understand him at all. He then told me to rush to the bank and deposit my cashier's check. I told him my bank was closed, as it was Saturday. So he requested I do so first thing Monday morning. I told him I would do so. This is when I decided to look this up, and boy am I glad I did!

I have come across something similar to this before. What I did then is what I am going to do on Monday; take it to the bank, let them verify it is a scam and they will report it to better authorities than us regular people have access to.

I received a letter from the UK from a Mark Kerry stating I had won $130, 000.00 and the prize winnings would be released as soon as I pay a clearance fee is deducted and paid. Total scam!

Just got similar letter for winning $130, 000. Says prize director is Mark Scott representing Voltex Crest Securities Inc. There was no return address on the envelope but the actual letter had an address of 3 Wade Street, London England, WC 987T UK. Phone number indicated to call is [protected] and ask for Mark Scott or Lucy Tate.

Also says "prize winnings are released to you as soon as your Clearance Fee is deducted and paid".

Obviously this is a scam and these people need to get caught and locked up... Or get a life!

I received the exact same letter and got the same instructions from Mark Kerry. He didn't sound English and was hard to understand. Sounded more Nigerian to me. Anyhow, my supposed winning numbers are the same and I'm expecting my first $5000 within a few weeks. How lucky a I? *lol* I wish we could pursue mail fraud charges, as these people are clearly breaking the law.

I also just recieved the same letter stating I had won $130, 000 from Mark Kerry, the prize director representing BOLT Crest Securities Inc. Lotto & Sweepstakes Claim Department. The winning #'s were also [protected]. It stated it was the final notification & prize must be claimed within 3 weeks from the date of the letter 12/24/2015. And that I was selected as a prize winner on May 14th 2014. I knew it was too good to be true I could never get that lucky. Glad I double checked! Thanks!
