This is a big scam and we almost fell for it its so good. my wife actually deposited the check then realizing something wasnt right alerted them. That led to other problems.The scam works like this.They send you a check for $3985 and say its to pay the taxes on your winnings. You have to wire it to them after which they release the amount of the winnings $250,000 to you.But its a very well made counterfeit check. The scammers have you cash a fake check, send them money and leave you responsible for the amount.This will go on for reasons these bastards know. The FBI wont touch it if its under a million. The bank wont pursue it unless they suffer a loss but they are coming after you not them.This is out of Canada so a report to the police is meaningless.Dont fall for it. Its a scam and a big one.
