<prompt> Human: EDIT: Its now clear that this is probably a scam. Thank you all for your thorough responses! I knew I came to the right place.Ive never cross-posted before, so I hope this link to the original post is the appropriate way to do itTL;DR: I applied for a job, and got a response that just feels scammy, but I cant figure out what the guys angle could be, or what part of it I should be wary of. I think it may have something to do with him wanting me to set up a merchants account to receive payment, which is why I thought rpersonalfinance could give an opinion.  <response>: They will give you a bogus check that you will deposit, think it is good, send money to the expensive printer, then the check will bounce weeks later and you will be out all the money you sent.Run the other way, quickly.
