Such an OBVIOUS scam. How could you NOT know it's a RIPOFF

My daughter received mail with machine (1132881) postmarked Canada and no return address on the envelope (Red Flag 1)

There was a two page letter and a check for $2800 drawn on a CHASE Bank account of a Sue Banks (Red Flag 2, not a business account) inside with a return address of 255 E. Fifth street, suite 1900, Cinncinati, Ohio 45202-4700 which is actually the office of a law firm Dinsmore & Shohl LLP they have a phone number of 513-977-8200 and a fax of 513-977-8141 I spoke with their rep and they were unaware of their address being used by these scammers.

The letter instructs the recipient to cash the check and immediately and send by money gram (BIG Red Flag 3) $2040 dollars to a Yvonne Churcher in Vancouver, BC, no address. (Red Flag 4)

Then make two one hundred dollar purchases at Sears and Walmart and send the receipts by fax to 416-981-7845 (a Toronto number)

Now if this still isn't obvious to you that it's a scam then ask yourself, Why would someone send you money and ask you to return a LARGE portion of it to them? Why didn't they just send you a check for the amount they want to pay you? Why Extra?

Anyone foolish enough to cash this check and not turn this over to the postal inspectors DESERVES to get ripped off!
