not so much to pass funds illegally.. but to actually get you to cash their
"overage check".. and refund them the difference,.. and then when it is determined that their check is fake.. you are out the cash.. because it is in their pockets.. this runs along the line of the "Nigerian Scam", or the South Africa Bank scam.. and has been used locally with people buying cars out of the want ads.. only deal in cash... no checks.. no bank drafts.. BT "Jeff Melin" wrote in message ... This past week I received a response to one of my r.a.s. classified ads, the respondent asked me to accept a check for 10 times the item value and offered 150% of the sale price of the item for me to launder the money through my account and wire it to a third party. Some quick research indicated this is a large problem with internet sales and also cautioned sellers that the cashier's checks tendered are often counterfeit or can be a means of passing funds illegally. Take care in these transactions! Still looking for honest buyers! Jeff Melin |
