I received this email, and I also received an overnight check they wanted me to cash. I have informed the authorities so hopefully nobody will be scammed.

I have been dealing with the same individual(s). Here is the ongoing commentary. It has been reported to the FBI but it does not seem like much can be done. Here is the language they use. Falsified check is from Cappadonna INC Temecula , CA, Advanstar Communications, INC, Wells Fargo Bank

Hello,
How are you doing,i hope you are fine and alright.I have been busy myself but doing great.There is something i think i must bring to your notice.After a reconciliation of my account, i discovered that somehow my partner must have over paid you.The payment that was meant for another transaction was sent to you and the one meant for you was sent to another,however i want to believe i wont have a problem with you.
Please once you receive your payment,i will like you to deduct your money and send the remaining via western union to the manager of the shipping company that will help me with the pickup.I will provide the info you need to complete the western union transfer once you receive payment.Thanks once again for your understanding.
Warm regards

Nathan Bennett is going by "Nathan Smith" now. His e-mail address is love.bennett07@gmail.com>

I wonder if they think "Williams" and "Smith" are the only American surnames?
