View Full Version : Final post "Nigerian crap"

I will ask one simple question: How do you know a check is good when you take it to your bank and only want to deposit it.

Since nobody will answer my question I will:

How do you know a check is good when you take it to your bank and only want to deposit it ?

THEY CASH IT. I rest my case

A: You don't.

That's why scam artists "kite" checks. They illegally write bad checks between multiple accounts to create a bogus balance upon which to write more bad checks.

Hello,

I skimmed that thread and I agree with all of your points. If the check cashs, then its not a scam. Its a real check.

Okay. Anyways, I want to buy your Go-kart. Im from Florida. Im currently living in Bangkok - not a joke, ask anyone on here. I do however, plan to return to the states around X-Mas. I want to write you a check. Is it okay if my aunt sends you a check for me? Thanks.

Here's a link to my experience with the same scam.

This is what goes through the mind of a person that isn't completely clueless when faced with a similar situation.

Either him or Commodus definitely.

Commodus is good, but BadAdviceGuy is just so universally applicable. I think this is going to be a good month for the gimmick account talent pool.

I'd say there's quality picks to be had as deep as two or three in the gimmick talent draft.

The thing about Bad Advice Guy is that he could probably get away with posting a lot more than other gimmick accounts.

True, but if he can maintain a relatively high quality of posts, this makes him a step above the one trick ponys (and infinitely better than the no-trick-pony useless gimmick accounts).

Idi the Nigerian just leaps into the gimmick account highlight reel. Probably doesn't have the staying power to be account of the month, but this is a great play from the newcomer!

As long as ManyBeers keeps posting, or finally pays Idi his $4500, Idi will have some staying power.
