C.H.P.

Monetary compendium kings Carter, Hammond and Pierce have become so well known as scammers that they are now sending out letters under the initials C.H.P.

C.H.P. go to great lengths to claim their letter is not a “standard form letter”. They claim it is an official corporate win-rights communication/document complete. They even point to the seal on the letter to show they are genuine.

For $30, C.H.P. will send you your monetary compendium worth $1,160,000. What’s a monetary compendium? It’s a list of scam sweepstakes you can enter. And yes, this is a standard scam letter.

Read the compendium information on the back of the letter and it states that C.H.P. “examines, acquires and makes available full entry directives for known cash and prizes equalling or exceeding the stated amounts” and the “directives are placed in report format in our compendium for our world-wide eligible patrons who desire to participate”.

You’ll probably find you are ineligible to enter some competitions. Some prize giveaways are run by legitimate retailers wanting to promote their business. Other competitions are conducted by direct marketing companies to get your personal information for mailing lists. Always ask yourself whether the prize is worth you being on yet another mailing list!

This is the same offer made by 17 other scams operating out of three PO Boxes in Fort Langley, BC, Canada.

A WA consumer, who sent off their money to Carter Hammond and Pierce, received a cheap photocopied booklet listing web-based sweepstake and prize giveaways. The consumer was ineligible to enter the sweepstake offering $1 million but could be in the running to win a bottle of intestinal cleanser! Second prize was $5 off a bottle of intestinal cleanser!
