UPDATE... a cheque got put in the bank on friday....
I apologize for my ignorance...but what is this guy trying to do?
Please enlighten me as to how this scam works
They send a cheque for at least double the amount and get you to cash it... you then send the extra money back by telegraphic transfer to a western union office... then the cheque bounces and you are left in debt and they have their money :mad:
