Scammed...

[JDM onlyy]

Alright well heres the deal guys, I got a dual cam ZC motor for sale. Made an agreement with a guy to sell it for $280 and he send me money for the engine and shipping. So I got the check today, its a Cashier's Check...but the thing is...he sent me a check for $5000 dollars....

And they guy that's buying the engine, his name is different compared to the name thats on the check. The Remitter's name is different then the name on the outside of the envelope that I received. Me and my mom were thinking its a scam, its fake and when we called the place to verify the cashiers check they said that company only gives out checks with 9 digit checks not 8..like the one I have. And it's also got the date July 2, 2007 on it, when I didn't even talk to him until like late July? Or early August?

So give me a bit of advice guys, what do you guys think I should do about it? Go along and act like I sent it, or should I just say that when I went to verify the check they told me it wasn't real...what do you guys think I should do with this guy?
