After receiving the check I was unable to cash it, so I then deposited it into my account, all the while trying to contact Gert Robinson. The day after depositing the check, my online banking told me the money was pending withdrawl.
I had not touched the money since depositing it in my account. I emailed Gert Robinson to no reply. I waited a few days and still nothing back.
About a week later I checked my online banking and found that I now have negative funds in my account. I then took to googling Gert Robinsons name to find similar reports on this website, and I now realize that I have been scammed.
