Complaint Review: CONTINENTAL SHOPPING INC

I received a check in the amount of $3870 and my first thought was "is this for real"..then a red flag and a light went on in my head when  I read that I had to call to have the check "activated". 

Well then I spoke with my husband and we thoght it would be interesting to see if I could cash "their"check at the bank that CSI (continental Shoppers, Inc) said that they were a member of, Wells Fargo...

I went to the bank the next day, I had to sign the back and put my fingerprint the front of the check, (Because I did not have an account at Wells Fargo); then she (the teller) had to make a phone call to verify the funds so the check could be cashed. After about 25 minutes, the branch manager came and told me that the check was a fraud and that is when I told her what I was doing and that I figured it probably was no good.

She then kept the check and we exchanged information,because I told her I was calling the local news people and I was reporting them to the BBB. I am still in the process of all of the paper work and the technicalities that it takes to submit the bad guys and expose them.  Please if you got one of these checks; DON'T put it in your personal account; just report it to Wells Fargo and the BBB and CBI or FBI.
