International Claim Services John Carter, Michael Bell sEnt me a check that I had to dep. but it was no good till I called "John Careter", clearing commissioner Lasalle, Quebec Canada

I received a letter with a check in the amount of $1170.41. But I had to call "john Carter" before I deposited it for it to be good.  I did what he told me to and, deposited the check. I was to call him back when the check cleared .  The next day the money was in my account so, I figured the check had cleared.  He told me to Western Union $945.00 to "Michael Bell" in Quebec ,Canada and I would get a check and, a tax exempt for the following Tuesday between 8a.m and noon.  well Tuesday afternoon came and, still no delivery.  

So I called Fed Ex. and asked them if they had a delivery scheduled for me that day and they said "no".  So I tried and tried to call him back and eventually I reached him and, asked for a tracking # and, he said he would call me back in an hr. with it .  Well needless to say that is the last I heard from him,it's not for a lack of trying.  This all started on 12/08/11.   And yesterday I looked and my account was in the neg. $1001.00.   I called the bank and asked why and, they said the other party wasn't paying the check. I knew I had been "SCREWED".  Don't let this happen to you,especially on the holidays.
