The check I was sent arrived by FedEx...California address, drawn on The US
Bank of San Fransisco, California. It started as a Legit Cashier's Check for
$80 Dollars and was morphed to a check for $5000 dollars.

Its a pretty sophisticated operation in the US, not Nigeria. The money, once
in the Western Union System can be picked up anywhere in the world.

The sender address and name on the FedEx envelope were bogus as well, of
course.
