Hello,

I was just a victim of the Nigerian Cashier's check scam. Some guy named Kings John emailed me about a movie I had for sale. He wanted to buy the movie, but he was going to have his friend from Texas send me a check for a $1,000 and I was to take out the money for the movie and send the rest to a charity organization called http://www.kanuheartfoundation.com Anyways, I agreed to it and he sent me a cashiers check for $1,000. The envelope came from Nigeria but was an American cashiers check signed by someone from Georgia (by the way, the signature was just a small scribble). I was talking to my friend the day after I deposited it and he told me it was a scam and to call my bank right away. So I did, and now there is a hold on that cashier's check. Here is some of the emails this person sent to me:

Thanks for the email i really appreciate it.i will like to know if you will be able to get more of the bag to aleast up to these half of these amount that my friend will issed a money order to you.$1,000.pls get back to me as soon as u have up to that amount...so i will also like to tell u that will u
