Ok I got brave and cashed the check but of coarse it was canceled. Yeah this is some sort of a scam. They tried to withdraw the check balance from my account twice which mess up my checking account up for a couple days but I had an accountant working on it. DONT CASH THAT CHECK!
I ALSO recieved the SAME letter and when I tryed to call I keep getting an answering machine which you can not leave any messages because the mail box is full.

I received a letter, stating I had won the 2008 promotional sweepstakes lottery.
They sent me a letter stating I had won $248,000.00 US dollars.
They also sent a check,for $4955.00 to pay for the taxes, which are $3975.00.
The letter says do not try to cash this check, until contacting claim agent,
Mrs. Pamela Robinson for further clarification and instructions.
Then they wanted a Moneygram from Wal-mart, sent to them.
I did some research on the internet, and found this scam has happened to others.
I did not call them, or try to cash the check, but I want people to know this scam is still out there.
The check is from ARRAY BIOPHARMA, INC,
3200 Walnut Street
Boulder, Colorado 80301
from JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A.
9000 Haggerty
Belleville, MI 48111
There is no bank at this address.
