Equipment Check Scam Checker

Fake check job scams often involve remote jobs where the victim is sent a check for equipment, software, supplies, or a home office setup.

The check may appear to clear at first but later bounce. The scammer may then ask you to buy equipment, use a specific vendor, or send leftover money back.

Do not paste bank account numbers, check images, routing numbers, or personal financial information.
