I checked with my bank when I received one of these checks when I listed my 86 Honda Interceptor on a site. They said the bank was probably legit but after they submitted several of them for payment for other customers, the bank in Nigeria denied payment after a lengthy wait for it to clear. At that point, it comes back to your bank and you better have the funds in your account to cover it. Obviously, if you have shipped the goods (exactly what these scammers want you to do), you are screwed!

Never, never fall for these scams. They're crooks and neither the FBI or banking officials can touch them. Our laws are for us, not them.
