Problems are not only bad checks, but bad companies… I just had a very bad experience with a hosting company, 2ip, and I finally understood how important is to work with a solid company!

Companies attempts to scam people continue to get more pathetic. I agree appalled, how can this not be illegal. There will be many stupid people to fall for this as well, what a shame.

Goes to show that we should read closely and between the lines in any transaction or get really burned.

I am amazed that this isn't illegal.

It's cowardice to advertise what the service is using a legitimate check as the cover. No return address on an envelope containing a check?

THIS IS AN INSULTING SCAM!!!

I never received such a check, but that is really bad. Im sure many people don't read the back of the check and they just submit it.

People need to actually pay attention when dealing with company like this. If you randomly get a “check” in the mail, you probably shouldn’t run off and cash it without scrutinizing it. It is a legal document, terms and conditions usually apply.

It’s actually really easy to make checks that don’t do anything but bounce and authorize that you are a live gullible person for a scammer to target for further harm.
