I deposited a potentially fake check of over $8000 need advice

I fell victim to a scam on Telegram where someone falsely claimed I had won and promised to send me an $8,000 check. After I deposited the check, he asked for a receipt, which raised my suspicions. He then told me I had to send him 40% of the amount while I would keep the rest. Realizing this was likely a scam, I didn’t send him any money, but my bank has since closed my account, probably due to the check. What should I do now?
