As of today, Tuesday April 15, 2008, the check sent to me for $4975.00 has cleared my account in the bank. I went to my bank manager yesterday and explained the situation to her and she put a notation in my record stating it's a cross-border scam and to watch my account. I'm not touching a penny of it for I don't want my account frozen and be responsible for repaying the real checking account owner. This way they can take it back and I won't have any charges added to my account for being overdrawn or anything. Why haven't the police or anyone set up a sting operation at the border and have someone here cash the check and western union the money to canada. Then they could have the western unions in the area under survellience so when the people come to pick up the money, they arrest them. It's got to be some of the same people running these scams just changing the company's and their names. Which means they must have false identification under a few different names. This is actually a big operation and they're probably ripping off millions of dollars from people all over the world. We need to put a stop to this. Is this not important enough to the police to want to stop it? Come on, this could be a major sting operation here. I know that there are different laws that the police would have to deal with but there's got to be something that can actually be done about this. There are a lot of poor and desperate people, such as myself, that see a ray of light or hope when they get this in the mail, only to be betrayed and plunged further into debt. This could be the last straw for some people. Where they give up all hope of getting out of their problems once and for all. Actions like these could lead to even more serious problems such as suicide. What if someone did everything they could think of to come up with the money to send thinking they were getting a large sum in return and Finally all their troubles would be over. Then, no money, they've been duped. I know I'd want to die, what about you? We need to stop this travesty now!!!
