What i know from the Malaysia company insurance is no need to buy insurance for courier the bank cheque. Accually we courier like car or electronic goods. Please respon. -Rnas-
Answer:
It very much sounds like an advance fee fraud. You don't pay anything to receive a lottery payout, and you pay taxes to the GOVERNMENT, not the lottery company, and taxes are taken from the payout before you receive the check, you don't pay in advance.
I hope you haven't paid those people anything. The best thing for you to always keep in mind, no matter what you are trying to do is that you do not need to pay anyone to claim a prize, get your compensation or collect funds due to you. I would say that is a scam.
