DE-LOTTO NORTH AMERICAN SWEEPSTAKES LOTTERY WINNING LETTER INCLUDING A CHECK THAT LOOKS AUTHENTIC Toronto Ontario Canada

I received a check in the mail (plain white envelope w/ regular stamp). The heading on the letter read: Inland Securities And Trust with the Canadian address. It then said in bold print: WINNING FINAL NOTIFICATION
I was skeptical because it said that they had many several attempts to contact me, yet this was the first letter and it included a check for:
$4875.00. The check was drawn on Citizens Bank which is a local bank in my area. The check looked real but when I read that I would have to pay taxes of $2,875 by Western Union, I knew the deal. I immediately went to the internet and found the name DE-Lotto North listed all the ay down the page.
