Just got a weird cheque. Who is this?
Just got a check, no return address on the envelope, and nothing but our address on the paper surrounding the cheque.
It's drawn on a "Cyprus Popular Bank Ltd. / Marfin Popular Bank Public Co Ltd." through CitiBank International. The signator is D. Andreou It also references "International Business Centre N/SIA, Cyprus" It shows a client #, but no reference what it's for, and is made out to my company.. Any ideas? Thanks |

Maybe some company that's gone under, that was based there when operating?
I know many EU based guys have chosen to incorporate in Cyprus over the years.

I'd contact Citibank, and get a contact number.
Always verify what you're getting paid for before accepting money, imho.

The safe thing to do is to send it back to CitiBank International and ask if you have rights to claim such... also ask for the history of the check... Later, . |

I agree, too odd, and I have no intention of depositing a check from unknown sources in our bank account. Let us know what you find. I too don't advertise other sites, so I have no reasonable explanation for the check.

Ok, I'm pretty sure this is a scam of some sort, tho I can't for teh life of me figure out the angle.
I got a 2nd cheque from the same "person / company", but this time it's for $925.36, and the biggie this time is, the signature line changed and it's a different signature. Just too many things that scream scam to ignore. P.S. I checked and these cheques are not from Slickcash... |

I walked into a citibank branch and showed them to the manager. She said they are almost certainly fake, but I'm still waiting to hear back from their fraud investigators to confirm this.
she says that this kind of scam happens all the time. I asked her what these people have to gain by sending me a check that I would deposit only to find out it's no good: they're after our account and routing numbers. I told her I find that hard to understand because any time you send out a check that information is right there on the check. She said that in the wrong hands, an account number and routing number can compromise an account. In fact that's why my bank set me up with an automatic sweep account so that only the necessary amount is kept in checking. Everything else is automatically put out of reach of scam artists that may access the account through fake or altered checks or other means. |

If it's a scam how would it work? I don't think the scammer would be able to get any $$ or information from it, the best they can probably do is figure which bank you have an account at, but that's about it, I would think...

I have a new friend in Nigeria that knows a lot about international banking, when he calls to confirm receipt of the check I sent him I'll ask.
