Complaint Review: Publisher Clearing House

My name is Malinda and I recently participated in a publishers clearing house sweepstakes. After a few months the sent me a letter stating that I won the prize money of $52,980.00 . The company sent me a check for $2980.00 I was to deposit it in to my account and when the check cleared I should send the processing fee of $2640.00 by western union. When they receive the money the would send me the 50,000.00.

I received a letter from my bank stating that my account will be closed. I went to the bank to find out what happened and why my account was being closed. The then told me that the check I had deposited was a fake and I need to pay a fee.
