I had the same issue. The red flags went up when the check was for $3,950.47. Now, they are sending me emails letting me know that they will report me for internet fraud. Who will I submit this fake check and emails to? Please assist I am getting frustrated with these scammers taking advantage of hard-working citizens!

Got same thing, recieved the check, bank told us it was a fake

I have gotten 3 emails from this company stating the cheque (not how we spell it) was on its way with a tracking number, which never was in the email, and to cash it at my bank and take out my share and send the rest on somewhere else.
WELL, I was not born yesterday and realized the scam, have as yet not gotten the check...when I do who do I send copies of their emails to along with the check. Looked up the company Nido and they are real BUT in Turkey! Red flag alert!

I went looking online for this type of work. I also today received a check in the amount of $1,550. The guy was emailing me and sent me a tracking number. He called several times asking if I had deposited the check. My bank was closed. (Thank God) so I went to Walmart to cash it.
Was told the account number was up to high on the check so I went to a check cashing place. They said come back on Monday so they can verify funding. So I'm going to take all the information to the police and let them handle it.
I even searched for Nido energy drink and it's a legit company. So if you're looking to make extra money don't fall for this.
