Answer 1

I wonder if sending a cheque which will be returned could be a way of the sender obtaining your bank account name and number as part of an identity theft scam.

Your bank should be able to make enquiries with the bank that issued the cheque. Banks will pass a lot of information to each other that they will not discuss with members of the public.
