I opened the ups and saw a check. It has watermark's and everything and it came from a Michigan address but the bank on the check itself is in Indiana. These scammers involved did their research, they used a real company with a verifiable address. Author solutions inc. in Indiana that issued me this check. The overseas scammers either have someone in the country in Michigan helping them or they are doing this in ways I will never understand. There was a small slip with an email address so I can contact once I receive it. Does anyone have any suggestions, or does anyone wanna take over for me and play with these lads. I can pm you the email addy. |

Grab a sharpie (they've got to make back that ludicrous David Beckham campaign somehow) and write FAKE across the front of the cheque if you intend keeping it as a trophy.
They have your real address details so just either ignore them, or send an email saying the bank called the police when you tried to cash the cheque saying it was stolen/a forgery, the cops siezed the cheque, and that they should never, ever contact you again. Then ignore all future corresponce from them. They'll go away.
Then down the line, you pass the details onto the job caper guys and join them in making the lads lives a misery. |

Cheque lads like this will usually try to create a convincing story that you're somehow working for them as opposed to just handing them your bank account contents.
Interestingly the cheque, if posted from the US, is likely to be sent from a victim themselves, they're a cheque mule, so when it all goes bad the buck stops with them, not the thieving cowardly lad. |

Please pm me with the e-mail address on the slip, / the amount on the cheque and why you think you received it. |

Thanks for the PM Ossie
I have got the backstory now, and this will be enough for me to press the Lad's buttons:-

Subject Mystery Check
I got a check in the mail with a note to contact you.
It's for about 1800 bucks ....I don't remember selling anything on craigslist for that amount. |

I've gotten several of these the biggest being over $50,000.00. I normally wait a few days and then email them with the bad news. It seems I cashed the check and was on my way to the bank when I stopped by a local adult entertainment establishment and after several cheap women, imported cigars and bottles of expensive liquor I seem to have blown right through the money. A thousand pardons. I am willing to make it up to you with monthly payments of a dollar and thirteen cents until we are squared away. They really get pissed but I can't figure it out, the check is always fake or forged so in reality there is no money backing it but I guess they don't like to think I actually cashed it and was able to enjoy a little fun at their expense. I receive the checks at a post office box booked under the name of my make believe company so the chances of one of the bastards actually tracking me down is very slim. At any rate, if you still want him messed with.....email me with details and I'll get to him when I can. |
