Re: [Rant] craigslist scammers

I have to laugh when I see grown educated otherwise mature adults falling for something so simple. I thought to myself, something's not right here...

As a general rule, I personally deposit all checks/funds over $200 to the teller. My bank (Chase NA) limits the availability of funds to $216 I believe when deposited to the ATM; so for this reason if I need more than that (or in this case if I simply want to verify legit nature of document) I will go in and ask for it in person. I asked to speak to the manager, and have the check verified. It took all of 10 minutes to learn it was indeed fraudulent and it's their problem from thereon out. My latest scam-bait is 'alliyah cole'; see »www.kba4pcrepair.com/scams/alliyahcole for the correspondence; she sounds a little pissed!

If you keep bringing bad checks to your bank, they may get suspicious and report you or maybe refuse to do business with you. I think you have a lot to lose if you continue.

Just my 2c.

thats a good point, but shouldn't there be someone I can take them to? Maybe I should have them sent to the Attorney General's office here in OH? Addressed to me/my company, c/o "OAG" or something...

It seems to me as soon as you see the line about the check being made out for a higher amount, you should just say no and drop the whole thing.

Cole is a very common name used by the Nigerian scammers.

heh, alliyah cant read very well, you told her you wont give change and they send the overage check anyway. Once I got my instructions from my scammer, I havent heard from them again. maybe too busy scamming others.
