We where selling a truck on Craigslist - we received an email from an interested party on purchasing the truck (Unseen) Hmm, strange but okay. Emailed back and forth - then they send payment and request we cash it - take $100 extra for our troubles and then wire the balance to their shipping company to pick-up the vehicle. Ok, I was born in the dark... But it wasn't last night! So, we take the check to our bank - The Check LOOKS Real - Everything is Perfect - but we decide to call call the Bank that issued the check - Again, Bank is Real... We ask if Sunshine Electronics is a customer of theirs... Again, YEP.
So far so good... Until we read the Account Number to them - There's the problem... Exact same Routing number, but there's and extra added number! Again Everything Looked Perfect.
The bank said, if I where you don't except the check.
We will persue legally getting people like this off the internet!
* Warning to everyone - Always be cautious!
* Never wire Money *
* If they give you a Check - Always have your bank put a Hold on it *
It is ashame that there are people like this in our great Country - Stand to gether and Let's Fight to get Rid of them!
