"Suppose you return a bunch of bottles and cans and throw the $12 bucks in your account. No chance that this is real.

Suppose you do. Do you really suppose that the government is interested in $12 deposits? How silly!
I sold a truck last month...the 24' UHaul I bought to move to Minnesota in. It wasn't a lot of money...just $4000. I deposited 40 $100 bills in my checking account the same day.
The government might be interested in a deposit like that, I suppose, but I have copies of the paperwork. Still, I doubt that they're interested even in that deposit, since it's not something that happens a lot in my account.
I'd rather the government didn't fiddle with that kind of stuff, but I suppose it's inevitable. Paranoia is a waste of mental energy.
I agree. There is no way they have the capacity to investigate $50 going into an account.
For anyone who wants the free Gap jeans, just wait and the chain email will get to you soon.
On the other hand, it may make them more interested. You've done something out of your profile.
