First, how did you find it was counterfeit?
At that point, what did you do?
Is the bank involved?
Do you still have the check or did you give it to the bank?
Did you endorse that check?
You are caught in some kind of fraud, it is just not clear where it lies. It is doubtful the guy on the Internet is on the up and up but it is hard to tell with the small amount of info you have given.

Report this to your local police department. Get a report number and then send all information you have on this guy along with a police report number to ABUSE@yahoo.com.

It is also possible that you may have been scammed at your finance institution, which I highly doubt, but again, not enough info to determine.

This is a legal issue you should work out with your law enforcement, now.

Why would you cash a check for a stranger???? How do you feel about not responding to the email he sends you?

If he does not have your address or telephone number, he can't find you. Open a new Yahoo E-mail account with a different user-name and he can't e-mail you.

Do you have an email from him in your yahoo now? Report it to police.

I think you report it to yahoo by fwd it to phishing@yahoo.com

Then, the next time you get one, mark the little box in front of it and click the "Spam" button. This users email will be blocked from your inbox.

Blessed be,
