Mail scam.  No. Amer. Prize pool.  we received a check for $5000 from a bank in Maine.  Real bank w/ real company attachment.  Misplellings on the check, waltz co-oporation.  Either they tried to spell corporation or cooperation.
check is from fake account do not cash.  I believe it will take a few days for the banks to communicate and then they will find out the check is bounced.  but they wont find out in time before you pay the Prize company.  So you will have to pay back the bank w/ fines.

I called the phone number the guy was definetly African.  hmmmm, maybe Nigerian.
