I am not sure I completely follow what you are saying, but this does not sound like the KSS I know. For one, they don't actually send you any compensation as they are a scheduling company, not an MSC. Asking you to spend your compensation before sending you money you are owed is very sketchy. Third, I am wary of any shops that involve purchasing gift cards and I have never heard of KSS advertising any shops that involve the purchase of gift cards.
I don't know everything, but what you describe sounds very sketchy.

You're being played. What you got isn't really from KSS ( who really is just a scheduling company and not an MSC), it's from a scammer using KSS' identity.
KSS did not send that to you. I got the exact same email with "BestMark" as the MSC. I forwarded this new round of email MSC scams to BestMark - a regional person. Got a response from a scheduler whose response was that these scams have been around for years and that is why they have something on their home page. He did not understand that this is a totally different scam and to some, might sound legit. But it is not!
If you bought giftcards, I hope you or family can use them or you can give them as gifts for holidays, birthdays, graduation, etc. It would be nice if you could forward the email you got to Kern (KSS) and also let Pete @KSS know. He is on this forum when he can. And he is great about addressing issues like this.
Much good luck to you

The problem with buying the gift cards for these scammers is that they want the gift card numbers sent to them ..... and they use them! That's part of the scam. The scammed person is left with NOTHING, no fee, no gift cards. Completely out the amount of the check. So if the OP got caught in this scam and purchased the gift cards, using them or giving them away may not be an option.
I just received a letter from kss and actually i believe it is a scam, they keep texting me. Sent me a cashiers check and adked me to buy 3 $500.00 walmart gift cards with receipts and numbers. The bank said the check is bogus, but bank it is written on is real just phony account numbers. Ive been trying to find someone to call about this scam but what will it do, cant stop them. I sent text back telling them they are scamming that check is bogus, they keep sending me texts to cash it and get the cards for them.
Send it on to KSS so that they know about it.

This is definitely a scam. If you deposit the check, it will bounce - but not until you have spent the money. This is a very rampant scam....
If you want to let the real KSS Scheduling know, Lorri's email is below.

You need to take the letter (if you still have it) to your post office and have them turn it over to the Postal Inspectors. And to your local police department.

The scammer like to use the names and logos of legitimate MS companies to lure in the unwary. So, the scammer damage both the unwary person who deposits the check AND the MS industry and some of its most stand-up companies.
