Best Answer

It is likely all parties involved, the forger, purchaser and depositer will be held accountable until it can be proven otherwise. The fraudulent use of a cashier's check is a federal crime, it would be advisable for anyone having a connection or knowledge of the event obtain legal advice or representation and not volunteer information regarding the issue.
