Received a check with Aetna Life Insurance Company on the check from Shaw Financial Inc. for a lottery in South Africa. The check was to pay for the processing fees in the amount of $3650.00 and the check was for $3950.00. I was wondering why they would have to send me a check to pay the fees when they could have done so as well as what does Aetna Life Insurance have to do with this lottery? The letter states I was not to contact anyone other than the agent they provided to me via phone. There is also misspelled words in the letter. I wanted to warn others about this scam if they receive a similar check to pay for a lottery winnings especially out of the country.
