Clever New Nigerian Money Scam
This is a good one.
They send your business a certified bank check for a high priced product you are advertising but above the amount you are asking.
So lets say you're a high end dog breeder selling dogs for $3000.
The Nigerian sends you a check for $4,500.
Then they call you back the next day and say they made a mistake on the check amount and demand you wire back the difference right away.
The original check turns out to be a fake and you've been clipped for $1500.
Amazingly, quite a lot of people are falling for this one.
