Depending on what bank issued the check, some "bank checks" are easy to confirm.

There isn't always a boogey man.
This is a well known scam... To sweeten the pot, the scammer will then write a check for MORE than the asking price, telling you to keep some of the money and return the rest "for the inconvenience"... Once they have that money, they disappear...
