Sweepstakes Scam from Readers Digest as Sponse

I got this letter from Equity Financial Trust Services stating that I had won a sweepstakes from Reader's Digest. Enclosed was a check for $3950.00 from Southland Pipe & Supply Co. I was told to deposit the check and then withdraw and Moneygram it to a Catherene Cortez to cover my processing fee's. I did what I was told to but felt skeptical so I made phone calls to Southland pipe because I made a copy of the original check and they stated that I was not the first one to call and they were very sorry. They told me they had calls all over the country, California, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia and so on.

So now this fake company has $3950.00 and I am out, because my bank is holding me liable. So please beware of any mail with these companies names on them...
