Description

I was contacted by a letter in the mail with a check for the amount of $9850.50. It looks very legitimate. The letter informed me of winning 2nd place in PUBLISHERS CLEARING HOUSE 100 million dollar sweepstakes. The amout of the supposed win is $2,500,000,00. The check mentioned above was apparently to cover insurance and attorney fees. It says to contact claim manager with SECURITY CODE PCH-55h66gC @ 1-289-308-6590 before depositing ir cashing the $9,850.50 check. It also has congratulations from MEGA MILLIONS-Walmart-JCPenney-Reader's Digest- and AG INSURANCE. Printed on the letter.
