Basically i got involved in this they paid £900 into my accoutn i took it out and spent it now i got a phone call saying:
We have 100% prove that our client made payment of 900 pounds to your account which is not fraudlent, we have copy of the payment slip and we are ready to present it to the police if you do not remit our money. Like I said over the phone that there is no way on earth your bank will remove the money from your account, we shall contact your bank if you do not remit our money by Monday.
Our Attorneys are already aware of the situation and they said we should give you three working days and after that if you do not remit our money then be ready to face the law.
We are not pleased with you at all and we shall not hesitate to sue you for this. You are expected to send the money to us on Monday via western union Money transfer to our account officer by name (Solomon Clark) after you have deducted your 10% which is not more than 90 pounds leaving the balance to 810 pounds, you are to pay for the western union charges from our share, after the payment has been made you are to send us the under listed information’s to enable us confirm the payment.
1. Name of sender
2. Address of sender
3. Amount sent
4. Mtcn number ( a ten digit number on the payment slip that will be given to you after payment).

A straightforward job scam.
The cheque will bounce - this is guaranteed. A cheque may appear in your account within hours but may take several weeks to clear and that is when the cheque will be found to be fraudulent.
If you haven't already, then go to the bank and explain what has happened - they will understand, just don't expect them to smile very much.
The scammer is using a 'legal threat' in order to spook you into doing what he says. There is no 'attorney' - it's an empty threat. You should ignore it completely.
This is nothing to do with Western Union.
WU are being used by the scammer as it is quick means to transfer money and there is no paper trail.
'Solomon Clark' is the (false) name the scammer will use to collect the money from WU. It is not widely known but a WU transaction can be collected anywhere in the world once the recipients name and the MCTN (Money Control Transfer Number) is known.
It doesn't matter if you send the WU to the North Pole, it can be collected in sunny Lagos if the correct info is known.
Scammers have 'plants' in the WU offices in (places such as) Nigeria willing to hand over the WU for a backhander.

It's a scam There are NO employers who hire you without a single face to face interview. If he were overseas, then he would have a local recruitment agency interviewing you. Nobody hires random people over the Internet Did he send you an I-9 and W-4 form as required by law before he asked you to start? That's more proof this is illegal He's phishing for your info to steal your identity and empty your account. DO NOT send any info. Instead file a police report
"Kemol Ventures Limited" is one of the names used by criminals operating in Europe and North America. A website titled "Internet Fraud Advisory Group" operating in the UK appears to have amassed information regarding the particular scam you fell victim to, as well as others. Their site refers to the name used in the materials you received, but there are hundreds. The site states that they provide a free advisory service to people caught up in these scams. According to their site, the criminals post a forged check to you bank account and before the forgery comes to your attention, they attempt to bilk you out of the funds stated on the check. As I understand it, because the checked was forged and victims obtained the funds before this was discovered, victims have been prosecuted and imprisoned, assumed to be involved rather than innocent victims - at least in the U.S. You need to contact your bank, as well as the authorities, ASAP. As the previous responder stated, don't worry about the criminals suing you - that's just a ploy to bilk you - but, consequences involving the bank and the law are very real. So, go see them before they come and see you.

This site is very cheesey and amateurish, but they seem to put a lot of time and effort into info gathering to alert and assist the public. Perhaps they can be of help.
GOOD LUCK!
Ignore what you're hearing from them and worry about what you're going to hear from your bank. The check *is* fraudulent, and your bank is eventually going to expect the money back from you. The scammers won't sue you -- the bank *will*.
Go talk to an officer at the bank and show him everything.
If they send you 900 and it actually did not bounce, that's a miracle. close your acct and open a new one - they'll never find you - don;t answer any email or phone calls - and never send any money overseas thru western union
Maybe the scammers got scammed for a change
their check will bonuce. the check will travel thru the system, until the last bank. This bank will not honor it and your bank will ask for 900 back.
You got suckered! I'm glad it was you and not me. I always wondered who actually fell for these scams ...I've even wondered if they ever worked. What were you thinking? Don't you watch the news? Unbelievable! Thanks for conversely answering my question!
I'd ignore it....it obviously a scam.
