Mystery Check

[RidgeRunner]

Honey, Break out the best plasticware and put that Boonesfarm on ice, it is time to celebrate.
Got a check in the mail for the Whaler today, for thousands more than I was ever asking. Sweet, my ship has come in, overdue on some good luck, lady karma has finally started to see things my way.
Ummmm, wait a minute, I have never heard of the person making the check. She is from Ft. Lauderdale. It doesn't look like a real signature, in fact the name on the signature line doesn't match the spelling of the first name of the maker printed on the top.
ALSO
Got the e-mail from Smurff Gary today saying I will be getting a check any day but the amount he is allegedly paying doesn't coincide with this check. AND Mr. Smurff is from Indiana not Ft. Lauderdale, FL.
Looks like the scammers are hard at it. I will have to delay the celebration until another day.
