<prompt> Human: On the 26th of June 2018 I received a legit looking check with my name in an un-marked envelope wrapped in a sheet of printer paper for security. There were no instructions, no you hit the jackpot and no cash this check and wire me money like usual scams so I asked the bank. They werent much help and said it is probably fraud. Im still pretty sure it is fraud and I dont want to deposit it just to see, but what I dont understand is how a scammer would make any money from me bouncing there check.  <response>: You will receive another letter in the mail, likely claiming to be from the IRS. It will state that you were overpaid on your refund and to send the money to address x by Western Union or to call a specific number for additional information.
