Too good to be true? Yes, actually, I had a run in with this particular type of "work at home" scam a couple of years ago, and actually fell for it. It wasn't really detrimental to me, and it cost me 5 bucks and a lesson well learned. Basically, what they want some sucker to do is deposit a fraudulent check into their checking account. It will take 5 days or so to clear, and then you need to remove the amount (minus your "commission") and send it to them via FedEx.

I should have known better, but I was naive back in the day. This time around, I'm a little more prepared for this.
