If someone were to "trust you" on this, they'd be wrong, as are you. TRUE, the scenarios of which you speak are scams, but there are plenty of legitimate companies out there. If you had really "done your homework" you would know that.
To any new shoppers, the way to do it is to SIGN UP. There is an extensive list of legitimate companies on this website. Especially when you're new, be suspicious of ANY type of recruitment via email. Sometimes companies do share databases and there are "reach outs" via sites like JobSlinger, but if you haven't registered, there's no way they would have your email. And again, if you receive a check to cash, or an offer to receive one, as Deejaie said, it's a scam. Be careful -- very often, scammers "borrow" the names of legitimate companies to perpetuate their scams.
