I had signed up for something ssimilar online and was kind of excited untill I saw the amount. A closer look at the check showed pixels behind the signiture and the bank info. The check said it had security features and I saw none.

This is a common scam. They "pay" you extra for something, tell you to cash the check and sent them the "extra." The check bounces and you're stuck.
Do not send them any money.
