Yolly .This is a money laundering scam and the checks are not real they are fake.It can take a few months for a check to clear. Scammer wants to get fake check paid in and cash drawn out before it is cleared and that money sent by western Union to somone else. That check will bounce and the scammer has the money sent and your friend has to repay bank. Tell your friend to cash no check and they must never send money to someone on a computer. That scammer mentions money transfer by Western Union and that is ALWAYS A SCAM. There is no charity only the scammer telling lies. All the other people who are mentioned may be people caught into a fake job scam and are laundering stolen money. I need link to scammer, or website information, and email address and will hunt him down and put him on line here.

To add to what Began said:

Most people think that if the bank gives you the money, then a check has cleared. It has NOT. Banks have to give you the money in a certain number of days because it's the laws, so if they haven't discovered the check is fake or stolen, they would give her the money.

BUT, the same law also allows the bank to take the money back later when they do discover the check is bad. And if she has taken the money out and sent it, she will owe the money to the bank herself. They will not be able to find the person she sent the money to, as they are using fake information, so she will be responsible for everything. And they can charge her fees for the bad deposits. PLUS, they can call the police, and have her arrested for check fraud, and report to her credit record so that no bank lets her have a bank account too!
