I received the letter stating i won $1, 800, 000.00 but they want me to send them $20.00 to obtain the prize money. The address to send the $20.00 is r. P. R. Main offices (Processing office) 218 e. Park ave #309, long beach ny 11561. This address is a ups store that gives you a physical address instead of a po box.. The signature on the letter is michael anthony and second page states i am not guaranteed the prize money but the front says i am a guaranteed winner. This is some double talk... I received a similar letter last year. Be careful because they will start calling you or emailing you also. I even received a cashier's check that was a fake. Please call the bank first that the cashier's check came from before placing it in your checking account. I called the police and gave them everything i had ever received.
Thank you so much. All of you. I was just about to write these crooks a check. Untill something told me to look the name up on the web and i found you guys. Times are tuff and $20 means a lot today. Thank you
I Just got one today. It looks very official. What a scam. How many people have sent them the $. Probably a lot. Thank you...everyone.
WOW! I got the same letter twice in two (2) months!... I am sure glad i google their name! The phone calls from them really threw me off until i found their names under all these scams!... Saving both of my letters...

Looks like mail fraud to me. Everyone should report it to the post master general.

i just received same Award Payment letter today asking to send the 19.99 check /money order/cash to be sent to the D.R.D. Main Office Payments Director, Po Box 9004 Westbury, NY [protected].The letter is signed by Robert Richards/prize announcer... i am still doing more research on this scam...thank you all for posting your experiences
I also received a letter today in the mail stating the same thing and I wasn't too sure about it either until I decided to google it to find out if it was real or not and now I got my answer from all the rest of you guys. These people are ridiculous and something should be done about them scamming people but that is not right at all. I am also going to keep my letter as well in case they file a class action suit against these crazy people. That is so true if you really won something why should you have to pay to receive what you have won. My name is Tish and I am a victim of this company D.R.D.'s scam.
Yep got mine today. Think I will save the letter for the class action suit. Might end up getting an award after all.
I Just received the same letter and I decided to research this person. Thanks to you guys/gals I won't have to worry about it. Lately I have all these companies calling my home and telling me I won this or that but, just need to make a payment for one thing. I'm like um no how bout you send me what I so called won and not send you anything. I'm getting pretty sick of the calls though. I'm wondering why this is happening all of a sudden because I've never had this problem before. But once again thanks this letter is going straight in the garbage. I hope everyone else that receives this letter does the same this is pretty ridiculous I mean seriously twenty bucks that's a bit pathetic.
I received one of these award letters on Saturday August 13, 2011 my ID [protected], and I was so excited about the information stating I have won 1, 400, 000.00. I just could not believe it was true, so I turn the award letter over and read the back of it, about the fourth sentence down it reads: You have not won any money or prize. So the 19.99 I would have sent, is for the data report only, because D.R.D Main office is a research and reporting service and nothing more. Please whatever you do "DO NOT SEND THEM ANYTHING FOR THIS IS A SCAM."
I received the same letter from D.R.D main office; sure seemed nice since I have been unemployed for 2 years; I guess it was to good to be true so I checked on line for a scam and sure enough many of you have received the same letter with a different month and year. I saved my $19.99 think I will send this letter to a local news station.
Its so sad when you gottah fake a award payment, like really who does that ### ? I never got anything & your taking $87 dollars out my account every month ? Like really wtf ! Ya'll are sad cases ! C a p i t a l. L e t t e r s. But i gotta compliment on how real the letter looks, it looks so official, but i hate you !
P. S. - my account was shut down so you can't take money out of an account that's not there !
Signed: your worst ###ing nightmare. (You sick poor ###)
Yeah I just got one of thouse letters and went on line just for laughs. But now that I have the address to the post office I'm gonna email them to see if it does any good. I hope that everyone that gets one of these letters emails the post office from where it was sent from.
yeah, i just got one 2... & i had a feel'n it wuz b.s... so, THANKS
I have just received a similar letter today. I've located the post office address of this PO Box. I'm writing to them to let them know that the owner of this PO Box is a scammer and they need to report the scam to authorities. I'm of course enclosing the letter I've received as a proof. You can locate the physical PO Box address through this website: http://www.blackbookonline.info/bbo_poaddress.aspx
I think this is the best way to locate the person who's sending out these letters. All I can hope for is for the post office to do the right thing and report the scammer to police. I hope this information is helpful to all. Remember, if you're asked to pay money to get money, it's obviously a scam. If you've actually won, no one will ask you to pay them to process anything. Any necessary fees to process the prize will be taken out of the prize amount.
