Eric Williams had signed letter.

I called them and they said they would mail a check.  When I received check they also said to call them again.

I called and they said to deposit the check and to send them the money to pay the clearance fee and then they would send me a check for $150,000.00.

I took it to my financial institution and they checked on the  check and said it was a fraudlent check.

I didn't get scammed but sure could have if I had cashed the check and sent that money.
