Don't the police usually frown on companies that encourage you to commit crimes? These con artists aren't the highest thing on the cops to-do list, but how the heck are they supposed to get on top of these scammers if the companies aren't helping? You should call the appropriate authorities and tell them the whole story. At the very least, they should be able to send someone around to have a word with HSBC. You might have a word with whoever regulates HSBC as well. I would think that the regulators would want HSBC to take an agressive stand against scam artists when possible, and telling you to cash the check is certainly the wrong way to proceed.
