  1. Seeing as how these almost all have the same format of asking to be able to send you a cashiers check, it seems the best way to prevent this is to make it very expensive for them.

    To that end, I have taken to giving them fake addresses to send the check to so they have to pay for the overnight mail and then I ignore them after that.
