I suspect that would depend on a few things.

The country the emailer is from.

The IP address used is it consistant or variable.

If using DHCP does the IP used return to te same ISP and geographic location.

Once these questions are answered you will have a whole ne set of them to consider.

This is the infamous Cashier's check scam. Quite a few girls in the US have been taken by it already, and it's been posted about on several boards.

Scammer offers you a ridiculous rate - say, $20,000 for two days work. Oh, but the poor man - he can only pay you with this certified cashier's check that one of his clients paid him with.

The cashier's check is for $30,000, so, to be fair, he'll give you a $5,000 tip, and you give him back his $5,000 change. He keeps you with him for the appointment, and then on Monday, off you head to the bank to cash your check. Guess what? The 'certified check' is bogus, and you're out two days work and the $5K 'change' you gave him back.

The point of this scam is to get you to do their dirty work, since they assume all SPs are stupid enough to be blinded by greed when we have piles of $$ tossed at us. Basically, they're using you to pass a bogus check for them. One girl in the US actually had her bank accept the check. Problem was, when her bank caught the errror three months later, she'd already spent most of the money, so she was charged with fraud. She had to pay back the full amount to get the charges dropped.

Be careful - if it seems to good to be true, it probably is.
