Hello Atkin, i recieved your check and cash it. My bank (Bank of Amish Mennonite church fellowships) informed me that the check had bounced. I will like to send you my item anyways and trust that you can send 250 dollars in food stamps at your earliest convenience. it would be most appreciated

I love seeing scammers get worked over. My fave was an old one where a dude got a scammer trying to buy his newer macbook to pay for a box of old books, shipped to the UK, + customs on a declared value of $2,000.
He made sure it weighed the right amount and was in the right size box even.
