SCAM ALERT

Anyone receiving a letter from a company called C.C.B.I Financial Services from Manitoba, Canada should be aware that the letter is from a business that does not exist. Enclosed with the letter will possibly be a check from Serapio's Tortilla Factory LLC. The amount of the check will usually be under five thousand dollars. The letter instructs recipients to cash the enclosed check and use the money to pay for the Non- Resident Government Tax. The recipient will be instructed to send the money to a tax agent in Manitoba, Canada in order to be eligible to receive a prize of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Serapio's Tortilla Factory LLC is a legitimate business and has been defrauded by this scheme as well as several letter recipients across the country. Should you receive this letter do not cash the check and report this to law enforcement.
