I heard from the lady who wants to buy the 4 cemetery plots in Falls Church, VA. The whole thing made me leery, it was too much money, and she never tried to bargain the price down. Plus, she wasn't in a hurry after the first two exchanges, never mentioning her deceased son, it felt weird. Anyway, I finally got a "certified" check and that didn't look right either, although I couldn't point to one item. We took the check to our bank and she said, Hmmm, and called a banker at Chase bank, the bank it was supposed be written on. She agreed to taking a look at it, and off we went . I couldn't walk that far, and there are only a few parking places, so C took me home and went back on foot. The Chase banker said, "forgery" and they decided to let Chase hold it while they pursued finding the source. I sent a message to the woman (so she wouldn't keep bugging me), giving her the bare bones of what is happening. Oddly, that night I got this violent email which I only glanced at (it was 3 in the morning) and by that morning the message was gone, Pffft! I didn't know you could erase a message after hitting "send". Anyway, I heard no more. My guess is some sort of scam that would show our account numbers, so they could drain the account.
