This is a typical craigslist (also on monster, indeed, and simply hired) scam for Auto Wrap advertising. They tell you that you will get paid for having them put a car advertisement on your vehicle and then send you a check. They ask you to forward the remaining amount of the check to the auto wrap company but then you never hear a thing. Right now they keep saying they are from Johnson Controls but they are NOT. Johnson Controls is being victimized here too.
They use an email exchange of j-controls.com and many other generic email addresses. DO NOT BELIEVE that they are from Johnson Controls. They are scam artists. Here is the text of typical message they will send you.

How it works
Here's the basic premise of the "paid to drive" concept:
JOHNSON CONTROLS seeks people -- regular citizens, not professional drivers -- to go about their normal routine as they usually do, only with a big advert for "JOHNSON CONTROLS" plastered on your car. The ads are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps," that almost seem to be painted on the vehicle, and which will cover any portion of your car's exterior Surface.
