I RECEIVED IN MAIL A CHECK DRAWN AGAINST REGIONS BANK FOR THE AMOUNT OF $4,875.00 AND THAT I WAS ONE OF 32 PEOPLE CHOSEN TO RECIEVE $125,000.00 AND ALL I HAD TO DO WAS PUT THE CHECK IN MY ACOUNT AND SEND THEM $2,875.00 FOR TAXES. SOUNDS GOOD HUH? IF NOT FOR THE FACT SOME OTHERS HAD TRIED THE SAME SCAM ON MY DAUGHTER ONLY A FEW MONTHS AGO AND SHE HAD TAKEN HER CHECK TO THE BANK AND HAD FOUND OUT IS WAS FAKE, BUT I'M TELLING YOU THEY LOOK REAL, ALL TO GET YOUR BANK ACCOUNT NUMBER.

These fake checks being sent all over have nothing to do with these people trying to get YOUR checking account information. They merely are trying to get you to SEND THEM YOUR OWN MONEY via Western Union or MoneyGram. The checks are counterfeit/forged/dummy checks and never get returned to the people who sent them out.
The checks are often drawn on legitimate companies who have had their checks stolen or duplicated. They are often sent from Canada....sometimes Nigeria. The company names on the checks.....even the account numbers and routing numbers can be and often are legitimate. Its the fact that the check has already been issued/cashed legitimately.....or the checks stolen....the bank account closed etc.
These scammers are not sending you these checks to gain ANY of YOUR bank information....ALL they want is for YOU to send them YOUR own money as a dupe for some bogus BS fees/taxes etc.
