**************** DO NOT DO WHAT THE LETTER SAYS!! ***********

Don't even call! They already have your name and home address, DO NOT GIVE THEM A TRACEABLE PHONE NUMBER as well!

What scares me the most is the fake check (with a terrible cut and paste job through PAINT of the Maaco logo) has the bank I used for my student loans! AND, the city the "Maaco Enterprises, Inc" is in a city I visited frequently in Pennsylvania! How do these people know all this information about me?

PLEASE, PLEASE, if you would have really won a sweepstakes, NO COMPANY IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS would send you a check by standard mail in a regular envelope with out a return address. You would have been contacted in different ways and a certified letter would have come delivering you the check. DO NOT CASH THE CHECK! AND DO NOT MAIL THEM THE "TAXES"!

As somone already stated, they are probably terrorists getting our money so they can plan their next attack!
