Contacted me by text for bookoo items with phone number (337) 418-9693. Wants to send fake cashiers check. Beware or send him fake messages if you like

I though 337 was a southwestern Louisiana number. I guess with Magic Jack you can look like you are calling from where ever you want. Good job catching on to him but how did you know it was a fake cashiers check?

Its the old scam of " I like this $100 item and can send you a cashiers check that I have that is $400. If you could cash it and send back the rest by Wetern Union ill have my man pick up the item" Well the check is counterfeit but small banks wont catch it. You cash it and 6 weeks later they take it back. by then you are out the $300 you sent him. His "man" never shows for the item. Ive sent him like 200 random pictures so far, hope is cell phone is on a minutes and text limited plan

Ha! That is funny. I am surprised anyone would fall for that these days. My husbands Grandfather passed away a few months ago. We went back home for the funeral and got calls like that. "You won a lottery of two million dollars. All you need to do is send us a Western Union for $500.00 so we can process your winnings." Even after we told them he died they kept hounding us saying "You can claim it in his place." They don't give up! We were just up at his Grandpas old house to see his aunt and they were still trying to get us to take the bate.
