I never thought in a million years. I would be on this site asking for help.

I also been scam and I'm scare to death. I just found out today.

Here's I thought I won some money. It was 2996.40 from North America Sweepstakes. I didn't doubt it, because I do fill out alot of Sweepstakes entrys. Come to fine out, The check was a Fraud, no good.

Dummy me, I depoisted in the bank. Oh yes, I ask the bank how long it will take to clear. They told me since it was from New York, only 3 days.
Well they check clear, or so I thought. Since my account said, I had a balance way over the amount of the check.

I went and got some cash out. Did some shopping, paid bills, etc. Only to fine out 12 days later the check is a Fraud/No Good.

I got a call from the Bank demanding their money back. Like today.
Well I'm a single mom, I don't have that much cash. And I sure don't have nothing in the bank anymore. I done contacted a lawyer, I didn't know what else to do. The man at the bank, even called me Stupid of all things.

Sorry for the Long Post. I just don't know what to do.
