My wife got this letter in the mail today, it was from a company offering her a job as a mystery shopper. Along with the letter was a check for almost 4,000 dollars. The letter said she had to spend different amounts of it at different businesses, and was allowed to keep 400 dollars for herself.
It seems on the level, it looks all business like, and I can't figure out how someone could scam us by just giving us money. At the same time, it seems really fishy that they just give out checks for thousands of dollars to people and hope that they'll make good on it - even if they had legal recourse to recover the money should you just decide to keep it, it seems like it would cost more time and money than its actually worth.
