Do nothing for a while and let them sweat

I might be enjoying this as much as you are right now.

Could possibly tell them there was a major issue when you went to deposit it at the bank and you were called into the back to speak to management.  The police were called and an investigation was launched concerning the cheque and it's ties to the Russian Oligarchs currently being sanctioned.

The cheque is being placed on hold while Interpol is being contacted and it will be a minimum of two weeks until the situation clears.

…also you could add that you were interrogated for 1.5 hours discussing the entire situation and your role in this.

[Giles]

I have other plans

That's pretty good, @goosehd , put the fear of God in em. I guess there could be a danger if this unknown individual is trolled too hard, since presumably Giles is not anonymous here?

Neither Giles nor Iron Heart given the cheque was delivered here

[Giles]

Latest.  The cheque is in Euro's so without a load of shag and hassle, I cant even pay it into a bank account….....Well, just a bit of shag and hassle, but I can't be arsed......

@Ross:

accept the cheque, deposit into a new fresh bank account, as soon as it's cleared and you're able to draw against it, draw the entirety in cash - closing the account in the process.

okay my idea, but with this. surely then you'll be 22k up and with a bike no?

[EdH]

Don't UK banks charge a fee for depositing foreign denomination cheques? You could ask him to send a further cheque to cover the fee before you will be able to deposit the main 22k cheque, and on and on ad infinitum.

@Giles:

The cheque is in Euro's  …

Then please use it to cover shipping costs to Germany, hahaha. 

No, maybe you could get some advice from  James Veitch.
