It's a scam; below is the reply from the Deaf Olympics. I called the cops and put a stop on the cheque. Thing is, I know better than to write a cheque to an individual...snior moment at 47
Hi Henri,
Thank you for emailing me about this one. We do have sponsorship with the letter and Donation with the letter too in the website but we do not ask anyone to solicit door to door. It is not Deaf Olympics as we are hosting 1st World Deaf Ice Hockey and Curling Championship 2009. There will be only hockey and curling. We do not have basketball game in this tournment.
Thank you for contact RCMP about this one. I think it is fraud. Anything that you want to know, you are welcome to contact me anytime.
Thanks
Cheryl
