Those businesses are not necessarily involved in this fraud. the scammers get checks printed with real business names to make them LOOK legit only. But usually the addresses / phone numbers are not valid for the businesses at all. No one is going to send you a check to pay your taxes with - legitimate sweepstakes are required to notify the IRS or the taxing agency for the coutnry you live in and those taxes will be taken out BEFORE you are sent any money.
