Along with a fake Certified Check for $1,990.44 dated 12/04/2020 made out to me with the RBFCU Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union, P.O. Box 2097, Universal City TX 78146-2097 in the top left corner of the check. I took it to Walmart while I waited to hear back from the real Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union on if this was another scam, and asked them in customer service if they knew anything about checks like this and multiple employees in customer service said that they had cashed checks like mine recently. But their machines wouldn’t read the one sent to me. I finally got a call back from the actual credit union and I explained to them that I was trying to verify the legitimacy or illegitimacy of this check that was sent to me claiming to be from them. Where they finally ran the check number for me and confirmed what I had already figured before I had even gone into Walmart…that it was indeed a fake.

I was sent a check for $2,300 and asked to buy Walmart gift cards in $500nincramnernts – keeping $300 for my work. This came thru a friends Linkened account and seemed legit. Now I find that his account was hacked and I do now know now what to do with this check or instructions
