So now I'm lying to this woman, I told her I cashed it and I didn't have time to get to a Western Union, just to see what she'll say next.
What you are now doing is called "scam baiting". There are a lot of sites devoted to this, including 419eater.com where you can learn more about this and share your "baits" with others. I personally do not recommend baiting since you never know what the scammer will do with the info that they have on you, especially if it is your REAL contact info (real name, number and address)

So I guess I'll keep playing with her and see if she gives up.
They don't give up to easy. They will proably become angry when you don't wire the money. You can tell them that the bank told you that the check was conterfeit so you can not wire them anything . . . that usually makes them go away (if that does not work, add that you and the bank have turned all info over to the FBI and Secret Service)
