If it is a cheque, even though it clears, it may still be found to be fraudulent and you lose all your money.

Same probably goes for any other sorts of payment with e.g. banks or credit cards as intermediaries.

Play it straight down the line I would.

[edit: don't repay the balance yet - see bb99 post below] and don't transfer until you are 360% sure you own the money.

Don't reveal your bank details if you can possibly help it - if they know the values and dates of recent transactions they are pretty close to getting in. Most of the rest of the info they probably already know about you or will find it out.

Remember you're not paranoid if they really are after you!!
