10/10/16 I received text reply to online ad for car I am selling. "Christina Baird" asked if she could send me a cash deposit to hold car so her mechanic could look at it. Later came up with excuse to not send cash and sent third party check instead. It was a business check from "World Institute of Pain, 145 Kimel Park Dr, Suite 208, Winston Salem, NC 27103". Bank name on check was BB&T in Winston Salem and was printed on security paper with realistic routing and account numbers. It just looked like a scam. I called World Institute of Pain and they told me Christina Baird had been forging checks using their company name. They knew her name and check amount before I even told them. They had been aware of many of such checks from Christina. I texted "Christina" back and said I would not deposit it. She texted me make saying deposit it, It will clear. I filed complaint with FBI and Postal inspector.
I know the scam goes: I deposit check, she backs out and wants funds wired back to her.
