your supposed to collect payment and forward them the diffrence the thing is they are the ones sending you the fake checks. some of them are pretty good too, I got one to rent my house and the check looked 100% authentic. luckly I asked the bank officer to look it up since the guy seemed too eager for me to cash the check when he was not moving into the apartment for 2 months.
