Please ignore question if you have nothing relevant to say about it. It's one of those things that sound too good to be true, but one is always curious anyhow.

Check cashing over the Internet? Get real. The whole concept smells (stinks?) of scam.

Here's what happens:
Someone sends you a check. You deposit it in your bank. The bank makes the money available in three days or so. You take the money and wire transfer it to someone who sent you the check, and keep 10% or 20% for your trouble.
Then the check bounces, and you're out the money. Example: I send you a check for $1000. You cash it and send me $800. Then the check is returned, and you're out the $1000 again. You lose $800 which you've just given me.

Red Flags are right . try and find out if they have a physical address and where it is normally most websites scams don't have one or its a very small office space somewhere with just a person answering a phone calls . but it does sound very fishy . i wouldn't trust it .. why don't they just use a bank to transfer money like any other company . . maybe they don't want to be traced back too easily so I'd go with that as a scam .

Nothing relating to cash and Internet is legit. I would be care and do some research first before moving forward.

By and large, most "do at home!" jobs offered over the internet are scams. I would be even more cautious as it involves money in some fashion. My advice is to avoid anything that sounds "too good to be true" and keep looking.

I would sincerely doubt it - more likely a rouse to get your account details and then drain your funds.
