To verify a check, you must contact the bank. If you suspect fraud, never call the number on the check as it may be part of the scam.
You can verify a check with a land line phone for $5 per call. With the real bank phone number based on the routing number you can verify funds on the item.
The only real way to get cash for the item is to show up at the bank the check is drawn on with your own photo ID and cash the check there.
If you don't know where the check came from - contact the maker. The chance is the check is not real.

What is safer a cashiers check or a personal check?
A cashiers check is far safer than a personal check, whether you are the payee or the payor. If you are the payee (the one receiving the check) and receive a personal check that is insufficient, you have very little recourse in obtaining the money owed to you. If you are paid with a cashiers check, it is guaranteed funds, since the bank will only issue the check with available funds (meaning it has to be paid for with cash or purchased at the person's bank, where the bank can verify there are sufficient funds in their account to cover the amount of the check). If you are the payor (the one paying by check), the bank can trace the check for you if the person to whom you were paying loses it or says they never received it. Also, if the check does get lost, it will be far more difficult for someone to forge their signature to it and cash it. Also, a cashiers check does not have as much personal identification on it like a personal check does (address, checking account number, etc.).
