I received all of the same info as mentioned above by others, and I’ve asked the scammers if I could just cash the check at Walmart or another banking institution other than my own and they are insisting that I cash at my bank (1 of many red flags).

I certainly don’t plan on following their plans, but may try to see if I can cash the check with a bank other than my own or in some sort of way that it doesn’t come back to me or my account(s), only so that I can get the money and they get nothing, but if not, I’ll just use the checks to start a fire in my fireplace or backyard fire pit or the like.

I’m smart enough to know this is a scam, but also would like to hit the scammers how they’re doing so many others. Any thoughts or ideas about how to cash the checks without it biting me in the a*s or taking funds from any of my accounts?

If not, then oh well, but I’m certainly not going to be scammed by these douchebags but just wanted to see if there’s a way I can hurt them without pinching myself in the process. Thx!

I received an email then a text message from 573-340-5030. My text message is from Perry Smith. I confronted him that I found it to be a scam. He said I was insulting him. He also said it is a 100% legit.

The check is in the mail with a tracking number. The mail starts in Eugene, Oregon. I will be taking the check that comes in tomorrow to the bank and see if it is legit. and go from there. He is supposed to send me more instructions once I get the check. I just curious of how they get the money or what ever they are looking for. I will not give them personal information at all.
