Scam Check Fraud Invalid Payment check Identity theft

This company sent us a check for a $4660. Asking us to send $1950 Western union transfer to a April Bell in NY. Then, send $2000 Money gram to the same person. It stated that we could have $400 for payment to do these assignments. Then asked to take the remaining $100 and spend it at a listed retail store. We keep the merchandise.

All they asked is that we fax reciepts and paperwork that they send. I called Joe Brown, Manager of the company and he confirmed all the details. I then perceded to the bank to verify the check and deposit it and they stated at the bank that the check was invalid. The routing number on the check was fraudulant. I then called Joe Brown back and explained it all to him and he Hung up on me after I disclosed the information to him.
