I responded to an ad for part-time work on Craiglist for Autowraps using my vehicle to advertise for a business/company. An agent name Larry Roberts replied to my email which explained the terms...$400 a week for a total of 4 weeks. I received a check and was instructed to deposit it into my account and once the check cleared deduct my first week payment and send the balance via Western Union to Elizabeth Maxwell, address 130 M Street NE, Washington, DC 20002. The same day the check cleared and I sent the money my credit union mailed a letter (I got the letter 3 days later) stating the check was returned "REFER TO MAKER". I called Advanced Communications, Inc. and questioned Mr Roberts and told him about the check and also that no one had contacted me about the advertisement/autowrap on my vehicle. He promised to get back to me on both issues. Now everytime I call Advanced Communications, Inc. he won't accept the calls.
I have to pay restitution to my credit union for the check amount $1500. What can I do?
