After getting this letter I called the number provided and talked to Jennifer Peters and she told me to cash the check and call her back. I told her I could not call her back because I couldn't call long distance. She said she would call me back at 5:00 the next day. So I took the check to get it cashed and see if this was real or fruad and they told me it was fraud, and the said either I sign a paper letting them shred the check or they were calling the law. I got a copy of the check, but I told them to shred it, because I didn't want any part of it. Jennifer Peters still has not called!
