<prompt> Human: This is off topic, but Im not sure where to post.Ive been doing some of those new product surveys online just for kicks, and was recently contacted to be a mystery shopper. I thought thatd be entertaining too, so signed up. The deal was 300 to go into one of a few stores and perform something along the lines of making a small purchase. Cool.I just got my assignment package with a check for 2,850.55. The instructions are to deposit the check at my bank, keep 300, and then Moneygram 1250 to two separate people.Note: The check is a cashiers check from a credit union.This obviously seems a bit shady, and may be a clever way of laundering money.Any advice for who I could contact for information to validate the legalityauthenticity of this request?  <response>: the check isnt real. this isnt even a scam 101 level scam, its like a remedial scam for people who didnt take scamming in high school.
