I got a letter from Buenos Noches Security inc. saying they had been trying to notify me of my winnings. I was the prize winner of their quarterly $100,000 award. Well, I didn't remember seeing any other notifications but you can imagine my relief; After all, I really do need that money to pay off all my gambling debts and this was obviously the good Lord shining upon me, even though I'd never even heard or Buenos Noches. But, “don't lick a gift horse in the face,” that's what I always say. “Take the money and run,” they always tell you. Long story short they were going to send me a check, but in the smaller amount of $4850. to cover taxes. Then the check for $95,150 would be delivered by Fed-Ex. When I got the cashiers check I was supposed to deposit in my bank and call a Mr. Jose Moses. When I did, he said that Fed-ex would be delivering the check on Monday at 4:30 and I should be there. Then at the last minute he informed me that I needed to send two ladies each a Money Gram in the amount of $1400 and then call him with the numbers. This was to pay my taxes in Argentina of all places. Well, I just happened to have $2800 left from my late husband's credit line, so I got the nice young lady at my bank to make a cashier's check out for me with it, even though the interest on those kinds of things is kinda high. I had to use this method because there was some kind of problem with the other check. Anyways, I followed his instructions to the tee, but I still haven't received my big check. My son and his wife tells me it was a fake. Mind you, this is the same two people who always say take the money and run. Now they've changed their tune and keep saying that I got “suckered.” That especially hurts, because I don't even like suckers, except the kind with the chewy centers. By the way, it takes exactly 98 licks to get to the center if you know how. I sure hope everyone else is wrong about the checks. I'm still hoping any day to see my check from the Fed-Ex, even though a couple of Mondays at 4:30 have come and gone with me left standing on the corner looking silly and flustered. When it comes, I will wave it under the noses of all the naysayers and ask them what they think now, ha ha. Oh Please let me be right. Am I doing the right thing to hold out hope or should I call up Mr Moses again? He was such a nice man, and very professional
