here is my story:

my gf's cuzin (not sure if this story kinda ties in with your story.. but imma post it anyways ) she sold her phone one ebay for $500 (idunno wut kind of phone but it was an expensive one) the guy bought it and sent her a check. guess what the check amount was?? $4500!! inside she got a letter saying taht he was busy and asked if she could cash the entire check and send the remainding amount ($4000) to some guy (he inserted an address). silly her (i warned her like 1000 times) she cashed the check and sent the $4000 .. 4 days later.. WaMu sends her a letter thru the mail .. it turned out the check was counter-fit and she owes the bank $4500 + fees

i'll update more as it unfolds (this just happend like 3 days ago)
