Shared claim letter is a scam to look out for
SIR - I received envelope on Monday which was headed ‘notice of pending forfeiture’. It is a scam and other readers should be made aware of it.
The letter is from a company in Australia which says you are in danger of forfeiting a shared claim of $21,000,000 if you don’t send them within 14 days a £10 registration fee and that your winnings will be paid by certified cheque or electronic bank transfer.
Don’t be fooled, bin it.
