Read this about check scams: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre40.shtm

Even if your bank verifies that the check is drawn on a legit account and your bank releases the funds to you, it could still bounce. Counterfeit checks can take a couple months to come back.

Did you steal it?

Otherwise, good luck cashing it and not finding out later that it was a scam of some sort.

Be Careful ! That's a scam. People do that to get your personal information. Especially those on ebay. I can guarantee you that the check is a Fake!.

Bring it to your bank and ask them to run a check on the account.


Studly
Oh come on!

You get a check sent to you from a stranger....you didn't sell anything or do anything to earn it....

And you ask us if it's legit?

By all means...run to the bank and cash it. It's like playing the lottery, isn't it?


That's Miss Cissoko to you!

NEVER EVER CASH CHECKS FROM UNKNOWN PERSONS


BRING IT TO THE BANK AND HAVE THEM INVESTIGATE IT ...LET THEM CALL THE BANK AND SEE IF IT IS LEGITIMATE
