They'll give you a number to the bank (on the check) to verify if the check is real. Make note of the spelling of the bank, Well Fargo not WellS Fargo.
DO NOT CASH THE CHECK!!!!
Thanks to everyone that posted information about scams like this. They're just changing the names here and there, be aware.
