BEWARE!! Mail scam

Thought I would give you guys a heads up on a mail scam that is making it's way around. You recieve a legit looking check with a letter saying you have won. The check it to cover "taxes and fees" then they want you to deposit/cash check and send the fees to them to send you your prize. After a week or so the bank will then figure out it is a worthless check. The check I got was drawn off of Wells Fargo. I called them and they wanted me to send them the check and letter, and told me about the scam.
Here is a LINK to a local news story.
