Would you fall for this??

In my opinion, you'd have to be a bit dim to send someone a cheque for £2231 without having the money...   :-?

The 'Spokesman for Surrey Police' is wrong as well. Banks can still take the money from your account even after the cheque has cleared if it's subsequently proved to be a bouncer.
