This number is supposedly from Alice Thompson with emails of alicet304@gmail and alicet304@hotmail AND [email protected]
She wants to order Stampin' Up! products.
She is willing to pay you with a certified check, but will overpay you and ask you to send her the remainder of the money she had sent, to someone else entirely.
He English syntax, punctuation and spelling has always been incorrect and her story constantly changes. First she is computer illiterate and deaf, but she can handle emails and likes text messages. Then she and her old SU demonstrator who is suffering cancer need the items she is ordering for Alice's daughter's wedding, then the daughter is now in need of immediate surgery and wants me to send the left over money to the girl's doctor several states away! I looked up the doctor's name and this guy is actually a fired CEO of a bank in Texas!
There are so many dishonest people out there.
My only bit of advice to my fellow SU demos is never order ANY products for people unless you have their money in your hands and make sure you report any scams to the scammer thread on Stampin Up Connection. If you cannot do that, just send an email to Demo support. This helps all demos know the names of the scammers.

The same number inquired about baby sitting a kid and I would be sent a check and deduct 400 and put red on a reloadable vanilla card which I never heard of. The mother was supposed to be on vacation and the agent would handle things a scam,I was sent a picture of a Caucasian family and a African,Jamaican or whomever,decided to call me after I Said I don't text . I was supposed to deposit $2800 into my account when I was told 400 would be my pay for a job I never did it's a scam beware I had enough since to know better,some may not be so lucky. Oh and my profile was on care .com that's how it all started,reported the information to care .com and BBB and went to police so it could be stopped ,it's sad.

Suggest you NOT do that!
Instead, bring the check and the envelope in which it came to your post office.
They will attempt to follow up on a "using mails to defraud" case.

Disappointed in humanity
I got a text from the same number, except for he claimed to be George Lucas, from care.com. He claimed he was from Canada, and was moving down for business and needed a nanny for his two year old son. His wife was pregnant. He wanted me to do grocery shopping and care for his son on my own time for 15 hours a week, he said he was going to pay me 20 dollars an hour. This is a high price, but I am a poor college student, so I agreed. He said he was going to send me 400 dollars for my first weeks payment so I didn't work for anyone else, I agreed and ending up turning down other legit job offers. I then got a check in the mail for 2945 dollars roughly and he said he wanted me to deposit it at an ATM and send the extra money through western union to his land lord. I said no, he was getting pushy. I told him I quit. He gave me this huge sob story, I felt bad for him and having never being a victim of a scam before agreed to help him. However, I did it my own way which in the end saved my [***] because when the check "cancelled" i.e., he took the money from my account, I was able to cancel and block everything, only having to pay the bank the fees for the canceled check and processing fees. Which still sucked. My bank also told me he tried to write checks through my joint accounts that are attached through my parents. He continued to text me, wanting me to work for him. I texted him, said I knew what he was doing and am reporting him to the police. He never responded since.

I have been getting multiple messages from people claiming they are with care.com, but they just text me, I'm not sure how they are getting my number, as it is not listed. They are usually very pushy and all seem to have the same outlook.com email source. So watch out for that.

I hate people like this, he cost me money, I feel stupid, and I turned down legit jobs for this loser.

I don't think reporting him to the police will do anything, I just hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.
