A resident received a letter and check from the Atlantic Lottery Corporation. The check was drawn on a bank in Florida and the letter was mailed in Canada. Please be aware these are a scam. If you cash the check and send the amount for "applicable taxes on your winnings", you will be out the money you send. The check will come back as fraudulent, but not before you send the "tax money". Please throw these letters and checks away or shred them

This week, a Village resident received a letter offering a chance to make $250,000 in weeks. The letter claims this is not a pyramid scam and was seen on Oprah and 20/20. These letters requesting money be sent in order to receive large amounts of money are not valid. If you receive a letter similar to this, please throw it away.
