Description
I posted a sleeper chair for sale on Facebook and was contacted by a man named Stephen. He sent me a cashiers check for $4950.00 from Gesa Credit Union. He told me they accidentally added the shipping amount to the check and asked me to send him back $3050. I was going to cash the check but my daughter told me this was a scam so I filed a police report.
