Business intially announces it's name to be UBI Payment Services:
I recieved a letter in the mail indicating that I was guaraunteed to win $5,000 and all I had to do was complete a ridiculously easy math puzzle:
20 5= 25 21 23
Also take notice to return address on the envelope:
AIR MAIL
IF UNDELIVERED, PLS RETURN TO:
c/o TMF
ORCHARD POST OFFICE
PO BOX 51
SINGAPORE 912302
RED FLAGS went up all over the place. The purpose is to get your name and address so they can sell your name and information to companies purchasing mailing lists. After all people are more likely respond to mail that has your name on it and not 'current resident or tenant'.
How do these companies get away with this?
I can only imagine how many ignorant and naive people have fallen victim to this. There are laws in the US against this sort of thing but there is currently no law preventing companies from outside the country sending this illicit mail to US residents.
Unless you enjoy recieving ridiculous amounts of junk mail trying to sell you CRAP, I recommend that you shred this document immediately upon reciept.
