There are legit shops that are price audit projects, etc. that will pay that much as those are larger projects that take hours or days to complete. However, those projects are only offered to people that are known to the MSC (have signed up with them and usually have already done other lower paying shops with them). Also, the payment comes in paypal, direct deposit, or regular check (again this is a company you already have a business relationship with). Checks from someone or a company you do not know and they do not know you are scams. Also, anytime they mention wiring you money or you wire them money, it is most definitely a scam.

Shopping across Indiana but mostly around Indianapolis.
