today i received a check for $6.23 from texas. the company name on the check was NHI inc. with no addy, the check was hand signed and had a post it on it that said thanks. it had my full name and addy on the front and the back had a stamp that said deposit only, no third party endorsements, proper id required, and a line for my account number.

did a online corp check and the company is "not in good standing" saying it owed taxes, the person who signed the check was not the corp holder.

i wonder if it is a scam to get you to deposit the check with your account number which then gives them the proper addy ( you received it ) with a comfirmed name. they can then get the routing number for the bank from the processing info. this is enough info for them to do an electronic with drawl.

i dont know but i wont be depositing this check

It does sound suspicious.  I recommend giving your state AG a call.
