She tells me to go ahead an deposit the check into my account and then call her back. No other instructions nor does she state her name or company when she answers the phone. The check is noted to be void after 60 days. The letter and check arrived in a plain white envelope with no return address only a stamp that had a flower on it and Canada but was not marked as being in the postal office. There are the numbers 12304+2015 008 on te bottem of the envelope . You read about this happening all the time but you do not think it will happen to you...i only knew it was to good to be true!!! and believing that i had to go to the internet to check the whole thing out. I feel for those who did not check it out and had money stolen from them. This whole thing needs to be shut down and they need to be in jail... it is dishonest and unehtical
