I was just almost a victim of this crazy cashier check scam!!! I got an email from this guy who claimed that he worked for a company called Rosehouse and he wanted me to accept checks in the US and cash them from my account and then wire him the money via Western Union. I got the check last week and deposited it in my account. Then I began to think that the whole thing sounded kinda fishy so I did some re-search and came across this site. I called the bank today and they said indeed that the check was a fraud. I'm glad I didnt cash it and send the money.....that would have been a disaster!!!!!!! My question however is , can i get in any trouble for trying to deposite the check eventhough I thought at the time it was legit?????? No money was actually taken out so I think I'm ok, but i'm still worried.

If you have already talked to your bank and they have verifed that the check is counterfeit and you did not spend any of the money then you are probably safe.

Glad you found this site in time to save you!
