" The check cleared the first 24 hrs but then check was sent back with no funds. "
This scam is based on the fact that the scammer knows banking regulations and the victim does not. You assumed that the check cleared in 24 hrs. and they were hoping you would make that assumption. The scam revolves around "Regulation CC" which requires banks to make funds available after you deposit a check, even though it may take up to a week for the check to actually clear at the originating bank.
The part of the scam that you didn't mention is that you were likely asked to make some kind of untracable cash transfer as part of your "job". Usually Western Union, Moneygram or Moneypack. That's the real tipoff that you're dealing with a scammer. Sending untraceable cash to people you don't know is always a hallmark of the scammer.
