<prompt> Human: Hi reddit, I recently have listed up tickets to a soccer game on ebay and other apps like Letgo. I was selling them because you had to buy the event pass for 3 games but I was only really interested in one of the games. Someone hit me up on Letgo and told me that they would mail me a check and when the money got to me they would meet up and pick up the tickets. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but he sounded a little robotic. I asked if he was a robot and he said no, but I was still unsure. Fast forward a couple of days and he tells me the check has arrived. I check and it has except it is for 1500, when I only asked for 185. He told me I could keep an extra 50 and to deposit the money into the bank and give him the rest of the amount, when we meet. This amount of money has frightened me quite frankly and I dont know what to do. Is there anyway he could be trying to scam me somehow, or is he trying to launder money somehow? Im not an expert at this so any help andor advice would be appreciated, thank you all!Edit: Thank you guys for the overwhelming responses. I see it is obviously a scam, but why the downvotes?Edit 2: The guy replied to me after I told him I wouldnt be going through with this, he said what happened, the check should clear overnight.Assistant: give him the rest of the amount, when we meetContact your local PD. Although chances are good that the dude will send a mule to pick up the money. Human: I just texted him and told him I wont be cashing the check, and I found another buyer, but I am scared that he does know my address  <response>: I bet you will receive no further communications from this guygal.
