GETPAID2 Asked me to deposit check wait for it to clear wire money and the check came back counterfeit New York New York

Susan, I am very sorry to see that you have been scammed. This is a fairly common scam and the people that do this have more names than we will ever know. It's sort of a personal mission of mine to expose scammers like this.

Report this to your authorities, but I'm afraid that money sent through Western Union or Moneygram is virtually unrecoverable.

Best of luck to you.

.....good time to get scammed out of thousands of dollars? And that's all this was.....a scam. Hundreds of people have let GREED over rule their common sense and have fallen victim to these scams. Some of those who scam people have been interviewed on condition of anonymity and have clearly stated that Americans are the easiest group of people to scam. They claim that Americans are one of the only "groups" that totally expect to "get something for nothing"....that Americans dont use common sense and are too lazy to bother to check things out first.

Your bare cupboards and your dads lung cancer dont matter to the scammers. It doesnt render YOU any less guilty of falling for a blatant scam. It also wont get you your money returned.

Think it thru BEFORE you deposit a check from someone you dont know.

#1) WHY is this person sending me this money
#2) Do I KNOW this person
#3) Did I earn this money
#4) Did I play a lottery or apply for a job
#5) Why would some stranger send me this much money and yet ask for a return of most of it

bottom line.......You CANNOT answer those questions honestly. Yet you saw nothing wrong with depositing the check and then spending it. PAY THE BANK!!!!!
