Help me!

i applied for a job on indeed.com to be a warehouse supervisor with David Clarke company email: [email protected] sent me a check for 2,240 and told me to deposit it, take out my pay of 300 & then send the rest to a furniture company in Atlanta,GA 2022 Briarcliff Rd......kinda weird because the check is from Metlife insurance company.
i should i deposit the check?

Welcome to Scamwarners Noscammingplz.

Don't deposit it, it's a scam and the cheque is counterfeit.

If you deposit the cheque, it will be returned unpaid and, if you pay away the money on your account, you will be the loser.

If you want to confirm this, ring the company who is supposed to have issued the cheque and ask them if it's genuine. Banks don't like customers who deposit cheques that bounce, particularly counterfeit ones and they could call in the police.
