(and this is out of your own pocket) then a police office will more than likely arrest you for the check being a fake. (and this is whether you know it or not!!!!) so don't fill anything for them out. look up the business and make sure it's real and not a scam. we reported horace solutions when we didn't find them in the directory in the better business beareu. so check with them 1st to make sure it's a real company!!! i almost got mixed up in a scam. thank god me and my boyfriend got suspicious and called bbb. i would be in a bad situation if i hadn't have found out they we're a scam company! horace solutions is a scam. do not fill out anything for them. they send you a almost $4,000 check and then when you deposit it in the bank you will end up having to pay the bank the $4000 back.

I still wouldn't like it, but I would feel better if I could see that the website was securer "https", but none of them have been. I am surprised not to have seen this question raised in all the forums and postings I have been reading. Am I the only one concerned, and why?

Because if you use it for personal as well, you have to figure out the percentage of usage for your business and if you get audited the IRS WILL ask you those questions. Just an FYI.
