We've never heard of them. I Googled them. They are a real company, with reviews (good and bad) that's apparently been in business a long while.
I don't think in all conscience we can cash the check as I'm sure they've made a mistake. So I sent them an email asking why.
But it's very odd. Does anyone know of a scam like this?
Nothing like that.
I'd certainly contact the company. Someone might be sending bad cheques on their behalf.
We get Indian call centres here, pretending to be from Microsoft telling us our computers have viruses and getting pissed off with you when you tell them they're not from Microsoft, the computer doesn't have a virus, and that they're idiots.
