Replying to [ResourcesAdmin]: I had a same scene in my business, I was contacted by a guy from Nigeria for T-Shirts, he sent me advance payment check for the same and that check even got cleared by our bank then that Nigerian guy kept pushing me to ship the products at the earliest. You won't beleive it, we were getting our T-shirts loaded in DHL's Truck when we received a call from our bank that they have received a telex from NY's Bank and that check was fake, it was really close, we were about to lose our US$7000.

Replying to [ResourcesAdmin]:Our company has been suffered in this problem.One of our Ugada client wanted to buy some mobile phone from us.After a certain discussion,she told us she will pay by Cheque and we advised that we can't accept it.A few days later,we got the air mail which she sent us the cashier's check.To be honest,we had no idea about it at that moment.Then,we sent this cashier's check to our bank--HSBC and they advised we shouldn't accept it.Finally,we sent the buyer an email told her this Cashier's check is useless in China.If she wanted to buy from us,pls send by bank......and of course,she no long contact with us.

Replying to [ResourcesAdmin]: Sorry to hear about that as well. Usually what I would do is to make sure all the sum are cleared before sending out the product. Better luck next time....

Replying to [ResourcesAdmin]: I will NEVER accept postdated cashier's check. I have received many blank cheques and I will not receive anymore of thes.

BEWARE ! BEWARE !! BEWARE !!!

Name: AHMED DUROJAYE

Address: Europe

Beware of the name: DUROJAYE AHMED

Replying to [ResourcesAdmin]: Yes this type is very common in the US and come from country that usally is not where they are. All they have to do is set up an email accont and send out many letters to hook someone as a reciever of their cmoney- your part is to send them a % of the money and you keep a small %, hey are always in a rush to do this- with deposit the money in you bank and Wester Union them the rest minus the WU fee.

Hey, i have just recently been a victim of Money Order fraud from a Nigerian guy. He setted up a company called Sholly Textles Limited and profiled on Alibaba using a US for location. He, as many other cheater, acted too good to be true. Sent me a over payment money order check and ask me to send him back the remainder. As to be too green for business, I believed this guy and cash the money order check at the bank and foolishly thought that everything should be find since the bank let me cash the check after 15 days of holding; however, even after 15 days of holding, the reason that the bank gives me money is base on a time regulation, not because the validation of that cheque, and the bank defends themself by telling customers that they should assume the cheque is ok before they deposit into the bank and be responsible for any bounce. Anyway, I send the remainder back to the Nigerian guy and I lost total 3000.00 US. Once again I want to araise people's attention!!!!! Pay this forward if you have learn something!!!

Quoting from [ResourcesAdmin]:

Case Description:

 "I dealt with a new buyer and he placed an order very quickly. Soon after, I received a USD$6,000 cashier's cheque from him; however, the amount of this check was in excess of the purchase price. I was requested to wire the balance back to him. I deposited his cheque and then sent out the products. I also wired back the balance as requested. Then, I was informed by my bank that the buyer’s cheque was fraudulent. I lost both my money and merchandise to a scam".

Analysis of this case:



If you're faced with a situation that looks anything like this, you're probably experiencing a cashier's cheque fraud. The fraudster will pretend to be a buyer and pay you a cashier’s cheque which is in excess of the purchase price. The cheque will be from them or a third party. However, don't ever send money until you find that the paying bank has actually paid the funds into your account. The trick of the cashier’s cheque fraud is that the payee’s bank credits the seller's account before the funds have actually arrived from the paying bank. Therefore, it looks like the funds have cleared and everything is OK. Here are some tips if you encounter similar situations:

1. It is ALWAYS too good to be true. No buyers will make a rush decision without discussing the details of your product. Ask your potential buyer more questions. 

2. Don't be hurried along by your buyer. This is often a tactic used by fraudsters to get you to make a mistake.

3. Check the details of any payment received. Do they correspond with the information given to you by your buyer? If you are paid by company cheque or banker's draft, then try to contact the company directly to verify its legitimacy.   



4. Confirm details with your bank. Your bank will be able to give you guidance and clarify the status of any payments received.

5. If you do lose money to this type of fraud, then report the matter to your local police and contact the Alibaba service team at alibaba@alibaba-inc.com.

I had someone to walk into the bank and deposit a cashiers check into my account. I knew nothing of it until I checked my balance and there was 65,000 in my account. I had no clue of where it came from I think I know because someone on here ordered a large order from me and said that the wire transfer got messed up all of this was shortly after i had given them wiring instructions for payment. It has been over 2 months now an I have still not got payment for the order. However the bank closed my account an is now investagating this fake cashiers check from Dallas Tx,
