I was sent a cashier's check worth $2,400.00 with a survey form with instructions to cash the check, take $300 for my wages,go to western union make a transaction for $1800.00 that Kelly would "walk me through it",pay $150.00 in western union fees,& then go to walmart,bestbuy,or k-mart & spend 150.00...I called the First Credit Union in Phoenix AZ & she said their checks do not say Cashier check on it....but damn did it look like it was real and that money looked real good =( Be on the look-out for a no return address envelope from Canada post.ca 120210....

  • I got the same letter also but I was able to con them instead. I deposited the check then I put my account on freeze which means no money can come out BUT money can come in. So I waited til it cleared and it did. So I reopened my account took the money put it into another account, paid $100 to close that account and I’m up $2300. So the lesson here is u CANT CON A CON..... Also I have Wells Fargo idk if any other bank will let u do this.

  • I got the same letter and the same cashier's check for $2400 but I saw the red flags so I did some research online and made some calls and even went to my bank and it IS A SCAM ....so what I am going to do is take it to my local news station so they can let the public know NOT to cash these checks

  • My bank is also looking into it, tho reporting it to local new station is a very good idea, I already made the mistake of taking it to the bank but also explained the situation that i wasnt sure about it so hopefully i can avoid any disasters
