Type of a scam Employment

I received a text stating that a check was coming to me for costumer service survey. I was to deposit a check of 1,955, keeping 400 as commission, 55 for my own purchase, and then buy gift cards from eBay and Walmart. Prior to leaving the store, I was to take a picture of the cards, activate them, scratch off the pin codes. Afterward, there are a number of questions to answer about my experience making these purchases and send this information to an email address. I was suspicious of this and began to research. Since receiving this letter and check, I have received three messages from 724.862.5044 asking if I received these materials.
