****Sorry so long, but I was trying to find out about this letter. I was skeptical about it and as I was searching to find out if it was truely real I came upon this site. Can someone tell me what I need to do. The check looks real and I am scared to cash it because I don't want to mess up my account. I don't want to call overseas either because of the cost. The name on the check is from VelVac here in the United States.*****
