Second, seemingly legit, job posting that’s contacted me after the fact to download Signal/Telegram. I’m in now way going to do it, not that dumb, just wondering if this is a new trend I’m not aware of?

What would happen is:
Doesn’t seem worth it to me.
In truth though, they’d never accept the check. 99% of the time, scammers send an image of a check, then ask you to print it and use mobile deposit to put in your account. That way, nobody ever touches it and realizes it’s a shitty jpeg on printer paper. It wouldn’t fool anyone IRL.
Sometimes, they might send an actual check that they stole and doctored up, but that’s too much work for a scammer most of the time.
