Scam .. they'll give you a check for more than the actual amount and ask that you send them the balance in return....

... and, of course, their check is bad ...

... and they use the routing info from your check to empty your account ...

[Breezy]

That is what I figured thanks Brad.
They would be hurting lol cause my bank account is already empty roflmao

[snidow]

Yeah scam it is, just tell them sure send me a check and once it has completely cleared my account in about two weeks we can talk.

[Breezy]

I didn't even notice the cashiers check part in the email. Man I need more sleep lol.

I will do that and see what she says lol.
I have already deleted one and just didn't respond.

[snidow]

LOL, tell them you will send them a cashiers check once they ask you to send back part of the money...

[Breezy]

haha
I can play with them too.

Just tell them you will take the check, and then if it clears, you will deliver them the difference in cash when you show up at the job. And they shouldn't worry, because you hope to make most of your money from selling prints after you do the job. You won't hear from the again or get a check.

just tell them to send the check and that you don't intend to return any money to them because you need it to operate your International Scam Busting Business.

Same scam has been used on cars for many years... they claim to be a buyer for someone that wants it but can only send cashier's check of 10,000 and they'll need the balance back to the shipping company to cover shipping.

The secret service is responsible for investigating these types and has an email address to fwd stuff to. I've sent several when I was trying to sell a truck a couple years back... never heard back (didn't expect to), so I have no idea what happens once you hit "send".

Have to admit though... the scammers are getting better at picking "niche" markets to go after... just like a regular business... but why can't they figure out to hire somebody to proof read and correct the grammar????

Or, have them send the check here.
