Today, I received a letter in the mail stating that I had won a trip to Cancun, Mexico. It looked like a scam so I threw it away. I later found out that it was a birthday present from my cousin and the envelope also contained a check for 5 thousand dollars to help cover some expenses. FML

I went to Cancun about 10 days ago. Really pretty place. Too bad you won't see it. Unless you dig it out of the trash.

Your cousin shouldn't have made it look like junk mail.

Just tell him to cancel the check and if the tickets were in the envelope, call the ticket resaler and show them proof of perchase, thats all u need to do dummy

why would you ever throw away something like that to at least check what it was for... and if it was from your cousin wouldnt it have his address on it or something

Why dont they just write you a new check and cancel the old one?

that's what u get for not openig it. maybe u will think twice about it next time

$5,000 to help "cover some expenses?" $5,000 can buy 5 week long all inclusive stays in Cancun. What a load of BS.

agree, looks like BS to me too. what kind of expenses? These trips to Mexico usually have all included, and cost like $1000.

Couldnt you have him write another check? Big deal.

The real FML is that your cousin is a scam artist.

Congrats you are officially handicapped YDI.
