For a check to bounce it would have to be from an actual account. That check was a fake. The scam works by getting the victim to send the money before the bank learns that the check is a counterfeit. I'm sorry to say that you will be held responsible for repaying the money to the bank.

That scam is all over the internet -a quick search on Mystery Shopping Scams would have prevented this. Including here on ROR - DID YOU EVEN LOOK BEFORE YOU POSTED? They use legitimate company names and bogus addresses There are a lot of ways to check this out Search on company name. Try to map the address provided Brought the check to bank and asked them to verify it BEFORE YOU DEPOSIT IT Called the bank the check was drawn on. YOU CHOSE NOT TO CHECK IT OUT FIRST - YOU ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN. NEVER CASH CHECKS YOU WERE NOT EXPECTING - NEVER WIRE TRANSFER MONEY TO ANYONE YOU DO NOT KNOW. No business is going to blindly send out checks for that amount to anyone with hte hopes they will do as instructed. You have to be affiliated with a legitimate Mystery Shopping Service, apply for and be hired to do the jobs. Legit Mystery Shopping jobs never send that amount of money.
