Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order

They will mail you a Priority Mail envelope with instructions and a Cashiers check for $2950 to go to an Apple Store to buy 2 gift cards. 1 for $1300 and 1 for $1350 and you get to keep $300. After you deposit the check into your bank account you are to immediately text them and go by the cards. If no Apple store around they will also do it at Walmart. Once you have bought the cards you are to email them pictures of the cards, both front and back with the little silver box scratched off so they can see the pin number, to verify you have actually bought the cards. They will then stop payment on the check and you will be out $2650. I didn’t deposit anything but when I read the part about emailing them the pics of the card i knew immediately what was up.
