about a month ago, i went and got my mail like i always do, and there was a weird looking envalope that looked like a check. i figured it was bogus and set it on the counter. my fiance got home and opened it and said it was not bogus, it was actually a settlement check for from a company i worked for years ago that did not comp overtime correctly!
well its like work at home scams, and they want you to cash the check and send back a money order and then the check bounces leaving them with money and you in a bad situation. it actually was not bogus. it was a settlement check from a lawsuit against my employer from years ago!
why would you always get fake checks? that would drive me crazy.
