It is probably fake. Take it to your bank or a Wachovia bank and let them rule it out. This has been going on alot around Texas.

Hey Judge P.
Your very welcome for the ten points.
About yous check. There are pros and cons. First and for most is the con being that if cashed it may bounce if its not real and that would cost you between 30 and 50 big ones. But if you don't mind taking a chance i would. I think that you can go to any LTD bank to see if the money is there and it is cash-able. They will help you find out what its for. From my point of view it wouldn't hurt. So good luck and i hope you have a fat wallet in due time.

No, most likely a scam. some banks may cash it if you have an account, but when the check comes back fake, you have to cover the cost. Even if your account goes into a negative balance.
You will see a lot of these fake checks on ebay.com or craigslist.org.

If it was a real check then there would be a return address on
the check. Go to www.consumeraffairs.com
They had a scam alert about these types of checks. Turn the entire envelope and contents over to your local Post Office.

NO!!! read the fine print on the back. It is like a contractual thing. once you cash it you agree tobuy something, be a part of something or something similar.
No money that comes to you this easliy is legitmate.
