Crude Oil and gas Limited Mack Scott asked me to cash a check for $3,564.00 and the check was counterfeit. He wanted it for his daughter, Melisa, to rent a apartment in my house in Indiana so she could go to Purdue. daughter is located in Manchester, UK and Dad in Arizona

I was contcted by e-mail from a girl looking for an apartment so she could go to college.  Her Dad would pay and then he e-mailed me and said he would send a large check for her first month and last onth and for me and then I should send someof the money back to him sohe could pay for her to come to the states from England. the check was for $3,645.00 and the bank would not cash it  or let me put it in my account.  The check was from the Dad's friend in California and when I wrote to the Dad, Mack Scott and his daughter, Melisa Scott today and told them about the probm I had wirth depositing the check neither of them responded. I preusme both of them are really one person and had read their neames last week in your paper where someone had the same thing happen to them. I am sorry for people who get caught in these kinds of problems. I have written both of them today and said they should not contact me any more or I will call the police.  Nancy
