Tiffanie Caulfield.
My spidey senses started tingling, but I decided to investigate further. I looked up the name of the girl, company, and info on whether this was a scam. I couldn't find any info aside from one other person on Model Mayhem saying they got the email and received a check, but didn't cash it. It sounds like a scam, but what puzzles me is: If they're sending me a check, how does the scam work? If it's a bad check, what happens if I try to cash it?
Has anyone else received emails like this or from the same people?
Thanks!
