Legal Question in Banking Law in California

deposited 3rd party counterfeit check

I have accepted to work for a company in China. They supply many items to US and over the world. I collected a check from one of their accounts. The bank closed my account, not sure what else as this just happened they told me the check was counterfeit. What can happen from this. How can I clear myself as I had no knowledge of this before hand. --name removed--Bulisco

Re: deposited 3rd party counterfeit check

There is no company in China. They don't ship squat to anybody. You were scammed on. If they are such an established company why do they need you to cash your checks. Bet you even sent them "change" for their bogus check by Western Union and now you owe your bank the money.
