If you entered the Reser’s Sweepstakes you probably already received this email but I thought I would post it in case anyone missed it.
This is a message from SCHIED, the marketing agency that works with Reser’s Fine Foods on the management and maintenance of ResersRacing.com.
We have been notified by some of our sweepstakes entrants that they have received fraudulent email and phone communications indicating that they have won the Reser’s Toyota Highlander Sweepstakes. If you have received a similar communication, please do not respond or engage.
The issue has been reported to the proper authorities, including the FBI, and we are working with them to identify and prosecute the perpetrators behind these fraudulent communications.
- NOTE: If you have received a fraudulent email or phone communication and would like to help the authorities in their investigation, please forward the full email and include any other pertinent information to [email protected].
If you have given out personal information and have not yet communicated that to us, please reply to this email immediately so we may further assist you. the sweepstakes has been suspended in order to further investigate the issue and how it occurred. An update will be posted at ResersRacing.com with more information as soon as it is available. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.

I didn’t get the original one (comcast.net), but did get one from quickalertsaver.biz Saturday & the above one today. I PM’d Reser Saturday to see if needed to forward to them & now see the reply. Sure hope they catch these creeps who are keeping someone from being a lucky truck winner!! Thanks for keeping us posted
I am sending a letter to Toyota and Reser Foods today. I tried to forward the message as requested by the Schied,com address the letter provided and got it returned as undeliverable. Makes me wonder what is really up here. If you look at Facebook, the Schied page only has a post from 7-5-2016. Is this company real? Makes me worry about giving up our SS# or driver’s licenses to any email potential win! Hope they can resolve this mess. Will keep you posted if I hear anything.
You must have a lot of time on your hands. I don’t give anyone for sweeps my SS # unless I talk to them on the phone 1st & verify the sweep online. Regardless, at this point everyone’s info is out on the net if a hacker really wants to find it.
Thanks!! I just got one of those emails today.
Thank you, I got one this am, and forwarded it to the Schied Team.
Interesting that this email comes from [email protected].
per the rules:
11. Sweepstakes is administered by Market Share Sports, LLC, Davidson, NC 28036
ya that seems strange..
Sent one of the 3 that were emailed to me today to them.
i sent to Schied.com email above and it was returned as undelivered mail.. i tried..
Just trash them & move on. Chances are high and the hackers are from overseas & nothing can be done
I received 3 emails today and tried to forward them, but all of them came back as undeliverable.
When my forward bounced, I sent a separate email and received a reply from scheid.com that said to resend without the attachment, which contains a virus. I doubt they will catch the hackers. Hopefully, they will try again with the sweeps. Good Luck to everyone.
