I received a check and a letter on March 4, 2010. The letter read as if I had won a sweepstakes for 300, 000, 00 dollars. The check amount was for 3975.00 dollars. I deposited the check into my saving, and withdrawn the monies. The check was returned. I am now, according to the bank, responsible for twice the amount of the check 7958.00 which includes a bank of 8.00 dollars. My monies are exhausted I have no way of paying back this large amount of money to my bank. I have spoken to a bank representative which inform me that I am liable. What can I do? Is there anyone that can help me? We need to come together to stop this fake check scam.
Thanks
