I received a check in the mail with a letter stating I had won a publishers clearing house sweepstakes.
The check was a cashers check drawn off of Woodland bank in Texas, I then called information an got the number of another branch in the state of Ohio I had explained the check to them and faxed the letter and check to the manager he called me back and told me not to cash the check it was a fraud if you photo copy the check the water marks disappear and is says void, if you cash the check and send them part of the money you would be responsible to pay your bank back the check was for $3,150.00 the girl I spoke with is Tiffany Blake she explained to me that there was a check for $41,850.00 that would be delivered by UPS once I cashed the check and sent them the taxes and fee of 2,900 to release the remaining balance.
wouldn't the taxes be more than 2,900 on 40,850.00 (RED FLAG)
Dont fall for this scam it could cost you BIG.
