ANGOLA — Trine University is warning consumers of a scam involving fraudulent checks that appear to be from the university. The university has received reports from around the United States of people receiving and attempting to cash the checks, most of which are connected to an online sale on sites like Craigslist. The perpetrator will send a fraudulent Trine check made out for an amount greater than the total sale, and ask the seller to deposit the check and send the excess money back. Sometimes, the scammer will ask for the seller’s bank account information. “Trine University does not purchase items from Craigslist, and we would never issue a check for this purpose,” said Jody Greer, vice president for finance.
