If the check that you cashed, then does not clear it's bank, it gets deducted back out of your account OR if you used a check cashing service, then you get charged criminally for passing bad/counterfeit checks.

It's always best to check with the bank that the check is written on before trying to cash.

I had a check for $2,000 sent to me by one of these scammers with no note or anything, not even sure what item of mine they were trying to buy.  I turned the check over to the police and they will give it back to me if it turns out to be a real check.  DON'T try to just cash these checks, they come out of stolen accounts.  They will be sent to you by UPS or Fedex and they fraudulently use the account of a real business.  You have nothing to lose by giving the check to the police.  You stay out of trouble and if it turns out to be a real check they will give it back to you.

i have also been emailed by the bank of Nigira and the FBI with emails containing this phone number. and i have told these people and the bank that i was on the do not contact list. this has only resulted in more emails from these people. i have also told the FTC( the do not call list people) of this scam and i have reported it to the real FBI and they told me that these people will be caught and brought to justice. but the true is that i don't think the fbi and the FTC give a rat's [***] about wanting to do their jobs and stop these people. my advice for people reciveing these emails should tell the [***] to [***] off. if that dosn't work, put them as spam!

Hi Matthew!

When receiving suspicious, or unwanted e-mails from parties you have no prior business with, it is best to simply trash them. You can also flag them as spam, which will allow the mail host to prevent others from receiving identical e-mails.

The reason simply trashing these e-mails is the best solution is simple. When you respond to the sender, you have confirmed to them that your e-mail account is active. Many users also complete the fields "First Name" and "Last Name" with their mail host. This information is then titled on your response e-mail to the potential scam agent.

This leads to another important point: Anonymity. When dealing with e-mail accounts, and online presences, one should resist including their full name, or any personal details. Any information provided can be discovered, and retrieved by scam agents to further tailor their scam to you.

As you can see, I follow this advice myself, in that I am using a "handle" when responding to you. You have provided your full name, which allows me to know that much more about you, and your online habits.

Rest assured, this isn't meant to scare, or intimidate you. It is meant to alert you to the dangers of online scams, and the potential harm in providing personal information online.

Take care,
Michamus
