But some people are fooled by this and actually attempt to cash the checks.
I went online and found the Stub Hub is an actual site, they sell sports tickets. In their notifications page they tell all about this scam. On May 27, 2007 they wrote:StubHub recently learned about a mail fraud scheme that is illegally using
StubHub's name and logo.The perpetrators of this scam have been distributing false sweepstakes letters claiming to be from StubHub Financial Services or Prime Financial Services. These letters include counterfeit checks bearing the StubHub name and logo.
Important: These checks are NOT genuine and StubHub did not send them.
StubHub and eBay do not conduct drawings or sweepstakes of this nature. We are working with law enforcement to identify the origin of this fraudulent activity. StubHub, Inc. is not responsible for these correspondences.
They obviously haven't been able to stop the perpetrators. I wanted to make sure an let everyone else know that this it a scam and to not fall for it.
