I bank at wells Fargo here in the U.S. and am purchaseing something on the internet from someone in Britian for 12 pounds, 50. How is the best way to send them this money?

Ask the seller for their preferred payment method. If they do indeed accept checks, you would need to convert the 12 pounds to American dollars at the current exchange rate or that accept by the seller then write your check in US dollars and mail i to them. If you need to purchase a money order then you can ask for the instructions from the post office or other service you purchase it from. Hope this helps!

First of all - a Brit is not going to be very happy with a $ check - the bank charges to translate to real money would be horrrendous. It's not legal tender in the UK either!
Wells Fargo is not very prevalent in the UK
Send the money by PayPal that way the transfer is done automatically or pay via credit card if this is possible.

No you can't, the checking account ha to be connected to a british bank.
Try paypal, or an international money order in british pounds from your bank.

Scam!!!!! That message is both a fake and an outright fraud. Don't contact the phishers and give them any of your personal information at all. If that involves money for insurance or fees, don't give them not one cent of it. You'll never see the money again. Remember no major company gets involved in any fake lotteries. The scammers are already using companies' names as a front for their illegal activities. Spam that scam message straight into oblivion right away. This is one lottery you'll never win because it's "bogus." You'll have to pay some money to play in the lottery. Another thing, the phishers telling you to "keep this lottery information confidential" would indicate to you not to say anything about this to anybody until they have finished scamming you.

You can't just write a check on a foreign currency.
You can buy an international cashiers check in nearly any currency at your local bank.

Convert that amount into US currency and write the check accordingly.
