I later gave the return adress to my local Police who in return is supposed to contact the FBI. Damn nigerians.. got nothing better to do than to make better counterfeit checks thanwe can.
They actually sent you a check for $14K for a hoodie? Sounds like they don't even read what they're buying. They just see an amount and send the check for more. What a bunch of a$$holes. And BTW, I've never seen a place that didn't require ID to cash a check.
