Scammer's address 262 rodeo road, Los Angeles, CA 90018, USA
Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
The victim received a letter, asking them to deposit a check. Check supposedly contained their winnings and the cover for a large processing fee.
They sent images of the letter and check. I've attached the letter. The scammers used business names that were close to actual businesses. The letter was from "Investec Financial Incorporated". There are legitimate companies also using the name Investec. The check was from a "Duke Engineering Corporation" and listed an address. The address matches to a "Duke Energy Corporation." But there are no records that indicate that Duke Engineering is real or any reason why they would have cut them a check.
Mrs. Julia Vander is listed as their "account rep."

Country United States
Victim Location MA 01267, USA
Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes
Claiming the money involves a processing fee of $ 2,510.00. However, the letter also included a check for $ 2,870.00 "to help [me] pay for the processing fee. Moreover, the letter advised me to contact the claims agent Ms. Julia Vander at 1-877-450-9929 to start the "claim processing
and to activate [my] check."
The latter is "signed" by Walter Oni, Promotions Manager, i.e. there is no handwritten signature but only the typed name and title.
