greg g Posted December 1, 2006 Report Posted December 1, 2006 Well I cold take the check to the local grocery store where I used to cash my paychecks for about 15 years. They would as a matter of course against a flash of my drivers lisence and store discount bar code card, cash it. Then what would happen?? They would be out the face amount of the bounced check, no doubt it would not clear the bank, the scammers would have the account info for the store's management company, and I'd have to start shopping at the big noisy I hate it mega wally world.........But I could gra the Studie truck I located a while back.

BobT-47P15 Posted December 1, 2006 Report Posted December 1, 2006 You ought to check out this website.....these people bait the scammers and lead them on some pretty funny rides. http://www.419eater.com/ They ultimately get a scammer to send a picture doing something stupid or holding a sign they think is important to the deal.
