It's for a fashion shot and he said that they will be coming to my location to shoot this fashion clothing for an article. He told me that he is going to pay me half the money up front and the rest after the shot is over. I have my doubts so I sent him a series of questions, one of which stated that im bringing a long one of my friend who is a cop. I just emial him back today but when he emails me back ill let you know. I'm in the same boat like you. At the end of the letter it says that he is from New Orleans but his profile stated that he's from New York. I can't help but think this is a scam but I'm going to wait and see what happens.

You will cash the check and some time later, it will bounce. That will leave you owing an additional 3,978 PLUS fees. Also, you know that it's a fraudulent check, so cashing it would be illegal and banks have been known to press charges. Dan, no, it can get worse.

Since I did not cash the check, how can I file a victim's report, or alert the authorities?

When I told her that, she offered to help me pay bills...and I was in such a rough spot, I was like hell, why not? So, she sent me a check two checks of 4k a piece, and I put one in my bank, and my boyfriend put one in his bank. Yeah, I knew something was up, but the money did help at that moment, and I do have to pay it back, but there's no warrant for my arrest or anything. Still sucks. Don't do it.

Still sucks.

Don’t do it.
