Hello, thanks for reading.
Well a few years ago, I was offered an opertunity to help someone and they pay me for it. It was a foreign person saying that if I can cash a check for them and do a few things with the money and I keep the remainder. I thought to myself, as long as the bank approves it, then there's no problem.
Well, the bank accepted the check, but needed to hold it until its cleared. At the time they gave me $1,000. I waited until the check was approved, which it was after 8 or so days. I took out about $700 or so, and started to buy a certain cell phone for the person who gave me the check. I had a hected schedule at that time so I didnt rush to do anything. Maybe a week later, the bank said the check bounced. They also said it was a bad check. And told me I had to pay that money back. I gave them the information of where I was sending the money and phone. The bank said Im responsible for the scam. Now, today, they say I have to pay the whole price unless I want to get served.
Now I dont have that kind of money. I talked the guy into $300 a month, it wasnt hard to do, but theres no other way, I told him. And thats still alot, I have other bills too. I feel I shouldnt have to pay, when it wasnt my fault. What should I do. Please help me. I cant even help my mother out around the house, because shes laid off from work, and now they bring this on me. Can the reduce the payments to $50 a month? Or? Something managable. What should I do?
