So I have a vacation rental in California. Got an inquiry from my website, this guy, supposedly a Dr. from England. Says he's a football coach with a Rugby team in England. Wanted to rent my place for a month, all expenses paid by the team.

Excited, I respond, make the reservation to block out the entire month....then I get email that says money has been sent, but too much so I need to cash check immediately then send western union or cashier's check for the difference to this guy in New York. Tells me the check has been sent to my address via UPS.

I immediately respond to him telling him I'm not stupid, no way, give me a valid credit card # to charge immediatelyt in full or his reservation is cancelled.

Today, the UPS envelope arrives. I track it, it's from some guy living in Los Angeles. The check inside is for $4,000.00 more than needed. The check looks like a credit card check, signed by someone different.

The fact that I have those two items now in my possession from two people obviously living in the USA, and obviously collaberating with some loser from Nigeria, who do I contact with this proof...the FBI, or the Secret Service. I want to nail these people....
