I am a victim of check fraud . I cashed a check I received from ABS Plumbing in Alabama. The Funds were supposed to be partially used for surveys of plumbing businesses . Part of the money was supposed to be deposited in an account accessible only to me for travel to different parts of the country to conduct these surveys.

I cashed the check at a check cashing facility in Jersey City. When I found the check to be fraudulent, it was too late. I spoke with one of the owners to make arrangements for paying the 3,900.00 back. I made an initial payment of 1650.00 in April and my intention was to complete payments by the end of May. I have not been able to complete the payback. I sent a 470.00 payment to Jack(via insured mail) last Friday . He brought a letter to my home refusing the payment. (The payment was in paychecks.) He also told me in his note that I had until June3,2008 to complete payment OR ELSE. He says he will file fraud charges against me.

I have reported the scam to the FTC and National Fraud Organization.

What should I do next?

Ok, you cashed a check from ABS, what have they said, have you sued them, have you turned over their bad check to the DA

But you have to pay the money back to the people who cashed it. So make those arrangements
