I received a letter from Barnsfield Financial Ltd., UK stating that i had won $150,000 in their lottery drawing. I had never entered a UK lottery, let alone played one in the USA, so there was a strong warning bell right there! Nevertheless, I called the number given in the letter and was not able to get in touch with anyone or anything but a message machine on which I left my name and number. A week later I still had not had a call back, so I called that Satruday and got hold of someone who said he was Ron Patson. He asked for the "claim number" given at top of the letter which I gave him, he went and got "my file" as he put it and he told me a letter would be sent to my mailing address, to watch for it. I was thinking "identity fraud" but he never asked for any information but the claim number. Immediately I went on the internet and searched for Barnsfield Financial Ltd. and was sucessful this time, times prior to that weren't sucessful. Anyway, there are numerous complaints about this company stealing people's identity information, of which I will not be one because they have been found out! That old adage goes, If it seems to good to be true, it is! So beware this company!
