ebay secret shopper

i received a check for 2950.00 i decided to call the bank it was written on. the account number was correct, but the check was counterfit. i turned the check, fed ex tracking number and all the emails over to the local police department. they are forwarding it to the district attorney's office. ebay secret's objective is you to cash the check and send by western union to the person listed in the email. within a few days the check will be returned. then your stuck with the amount of the check plus applicable charges. the police department's advice is to shred or burn the check. don't cash it.

Very common scam...
AUTHOR: Edgeman - (U.S.A.)

The internet is crammed with reports of scams like these and there are so many variations that one could not possibly list them all. These operations are commonly referred to as the Nigerian scam or the 419 scam.
The scam works because one can pick up payments from Western Union or Moneygram along with bank policy of making funds available before a check or money order actually clears.
If the OP had fallen for the scam he or she would have deposited the money order into a bank account and withdrawn all but $200. The bank would eventually have taken back the money it had credited and the scammer would have vanished after collecting the money.
The common mechanic in these scams is that they rely on Western Union and Moneygram. Never use these services to send money to someone that you do not know and even if you do know the recipient you should verify that you are actually sending it to them and not an imposter.
