    Normally, I would have just deleted this since the thread you responded to was over a year old. But I felt an answer was necessary so I moved it to its own thread.

    You are probably not going to like my answer though. I don't blame you for being mad, but I hope that anger is directed primarily at yourself. This scam (part time job cashing checks) has been around for a long time. It has been well publicized. So if you fell for it you should be angry at yourself mostly. You really have mostly yourself to blame for falling for this. I tiny bit of research would have revealed this for the scam it was.
