Last week I got a big fat check, you may be wondering how much. It is close to 5000 dollars and enough for one semester tuition fee. I am surprised to get fat check for nothing and  should I cash it or not. Yes it is an overnight Fedex services was used and it was sent from Huston, TX.

Payee name and address is mine.

Sender is from Michigan.
Check from Frederick, MD.



One more thing to add:

Do you get spam mail from your own account?

The date on that check is 12/11/06 and as far as I know all checks are invalid after 6 months !!! Hence, it is a scam.

Dear Bhojpure1,


Just sit and think for a second. If you haven't filled out a lottery ticket form or that check is not coming from your work place then why would someone send you a check of that amount for free. Obviously it is a scam and i strongly advise to not to fall for it. I got that kind of check a long time ago, i trashed it.


Thanks

Sparrow pirate bahnya ta Sherlock Holmes ko nati po rahechha. Too bad he didn't realize the check posted in one of the thread above is not the check in discussion here.
Bhojpure, u might get a mail to deposit the check and return half of the money...a typical check fraud case. If it is too good to be true....

Unless your bank charges penalty, I don't see any downside to depositing the check... Do not send anyone anything and don't spend the money. Wait for a few months before you do anything...

 Identity theft.

1) Once you try to cash check, you can not get cash right away, it needs to be collected.
2) Your account number must be there.
3) You valid drivers license should be presented and you will be providing your date of birth and as well Driver's license number.

What else they need from you, it may be enough for them to get SS number?. Rest of the life you will be chasing them.

That is a void check. It has "VOID" printed right next to the Memo field. (unless you printed that on the scanned image).

It’s elementary my dear Watson.


So, we have Sherlock Holmes no# 2. Good eyes to point out VOID on the scanned check.


However, I bet you the same amount that the letter VOID won’t show up in the original check. You see, when some checks are photocopied, the letter VOID comes out in the copied version to stop counterfieted copies of the check.


So, my friend, VOID on the scanned copy doesn’t necessarily mean that the check is a scam..doesn’t mean that I am saying this whole thing is legit; I am just refuting the argument.


Don’t believe me? See below:

Thank you all.

The company exist and the checking account and routing number are correct. The American Builder Services reconciles his bank account every day and find out the problem in the very beginning and not much in trouble with cash out as per the employee of ABS. 
I was thinking, it may be a best way of getting personal infos: like bank account, date of birth and driving license number.

FBI is involved and investigation is going on and I provided him new information that the overnight  fed was originated from Huston, TX. 

Folk: Do you reconcile or track of your checking account? If not let's start by now. 

Thanks again, It's corporate America no body sends you a dime or a fat check without reason(a good one or bad one).

हो हो ठ्याक्कै ठोकुवा गरेर भनिस त हौ  गाठे । यो कुरा त मैले मेरो X-girlfriend लाई मात्रै भनेको थिए , कसरी कुरा चुह्यो यो एउटा खोजको बिषय भयो । कही त तेही मेरो एक्स को छोरा छोरी त हैनस नत्र यो गोप्य कुरा कसरी तैले सुन्थिस अनी यहा लेख्थिस ।  I had a child from her and I happy to see my boy poking me , is it a revenge ? Boy I am still single and still longing to be unite. 

त् मुजी पनि लठिङरेनै रैछस् , यदी बाठो र त्यो मेरी एक्स ले तलाई सन्स्कार सिकाएको भए बाउ को हुर्मत खोल्ने काम नै गर्ने थीईनस । के गर्नु गल्ती त मेरो पनि हो ......... खुनको नाता , माफि दिन्छु तलाई , मेरो हुर्मत खोले पनि।
