Publisher’s Clearing House (PCH) scam sent a fake check for attorney fees for winning 2.5 million from PCH. I was to tell no one and had to call a number before I deposited the check.

received in the mail, a letter with a check for over $8,000 and notification that I had won the grand prize of $750,000, and directions to call a number in NYC. The check looks very legitimate, but I assumed it was a scam, so I held onto it for several weeks, until I got follow up call on my cell phone urging me to call the NYC number. Took check and letter to local Federal Credit Union for examination. The cashier said the check looks legit, but the FCU supervisor closely examined it and said it appeared to be an altered ("Washed") check, and that cashing it could give scammers access to clean out my account. I put it my in dead file.
