I worked in a bank and can tell you that as long as his bank is aware and there is a block on his account for Starcom Communication - he should be ok. The bank will put a stop payment on his account for Starcom Communications. The only thing I would worry about is that it wouldn't come through under than name. Personally, I would open another account and transfer my $$ there and keep the one open that I gave out - it would be a way to help track down the scammers in the event they try to access the account.

Hope that helps.
