<prompt> Human: My roommate has a criminal background, hes definitely not trustworthy. He offered to give me 10 to cash his paycheck, which is from a reputable company. Is this a really poor choice or can I do it safely without putting myself at risk? EDIT: Thanks guys. Looks like I was right of being wary of this. I will send him to Wal Mart or the issuing bank.  <response>: Very poor choice. Drive him to the bank to let him make an account if you want to be a friend.
