Financial Trust Services sent a check for $4900 to cover taxes owed on sweestakes winnings Toronto canada
At this time I have deposited the check. I do not plan on spending any of it until it clears. I already called the bank. They said I would not incur any charges from the check not clearing as long as i don't spend it. So, I"m waiting.
Dashing the hopes of others is a sin. If there is anyway to sue and collect do it. Who has time for this kind of crap.

How are you defining "when the check clears"?

When the bank "gives" you the money in 5 days? The check could (and probably will) bounce back 5 to 7 business days (Mon thru Fri only) AFTER the bank has given you the money. When the check then FINALLY bounces back the bank will then yank the money back from you- except you will have already wired it to God-knows-where for your "winnings" meaning you are stuck.......
