reviews and complaints

I have got a mail from the above company saying that I am a winner for certain high amount in Dollars. They asked me to furnish my details so that they can send the prize money through courier (Frontier Courier Forwarders). Knowing the fact that this could be a trapping, I gave my details to find out till where it will go untended. At last, courier people asked that I need to be sent the courier charge for sending the parcel. Its a cheque non transferable and non dividable etc.

The e-mail address: amason@etcmail.com & pauladesk119@live.com had stolen my identity

These companies are the bunch of cheaters. I have lost a huge amount in the so called claim process. Still these people contact me every year through different phone number. Can any one help me to track these people.
