[Jacob-list] Nigeria and fraud

[Connie Hackenburg]

Yes, please beware,
I just got a fake cashiers check and the police don't even want to hear 
about it.
I guess it may be hard to prosecute, but mine is for a puppy. Let me write 
out a check like that and they would have me locked up I am sure!!!!
