Comment was it was "kinda a start up company " in a warehouse .... most of these scams they "overpay" and ask for refunds.. One woman bought an $1,800 puppy and sent real money but was later told ..." Oh the dog died " but they sent her a refund of $3,600 a bogus check !! UPS OVERNIGHT they no doubt were going to ask her to send back the "extra" money they sent by mistake ! They have many many ways to scam , Craigslist being a favorite hunting ground.

Mostly just a bunch of work for Mark and Renee closing accounts , getting new checks , manually approving each and every outstanding check , but no direct loss of cash for us. The phone calls are a bit of a distraction people act rather odd when they have a large check in their hands that they know they do not deserve yet would like to believe that it might somehow be O K ... Like the Monopoly game card "Bank makes error in your favor collect $50."

It's not just the checks, guys. I've had it on good authority that some forged wheels have been showing up, too...

That puts a whole new spin on it.
