THIS BUSINESS NAME YOU REPORTED IS NOT INVOLVED - THEY ARE BEING USED. DID YOU CHECK THE ADDRESS? ITS PROBABLY BOGUS! the purpose of the check is to get you to deposit it and wire money back before it bounces! You wire them the money - the check bounces and you lose. They know the bank will release the funds to you before the check comes back as fraudulent. THAT LEAVES YOU to pay the bank back for the funds. NEVER CASH CHECKS YOU WERE NOT EXPECTING TO RECEIVE NEVER WIRE TRANSFER MONEY TO ANYONE YOU DO NOT KNOW and that includes these scammers who will tell you to say you know the person (lie) they have instructed you to wire the money to. Western union and Money Gram now ask if you KNOW the person you are wiring money to.
