The complainant reported receiving a message via social media from an unknown individual wanting to purchase a photo of the complainant for an art project. The individual requested her bank login information so they could deposit funds into her account. The individual deposited a check into the account for more than the amount agreed upon and asked for the complainant to cash app the difference. After sending money through the cash app, the check was returned, and she realized it was a scam.
