Hello, I'm a site designer and I got a job offer in America but there is a friend of mine who receives an American money and turns it in. But the problem is that the person who sent the check sent an extra sum and told me that you should split the amount into two to someone working with me in the design I told him OK but After sending the money we asked to transfer and the bank said the check should be studied but then the account was stopped and the police came and took the representative from me
