Lease Takeover Offer - Is There a Catch?

I recently received an offer to take over someone’s lease with a cash incentive, but it seems almost too good to be true. What exactly do credit checks entail in this situation? Are there hidden fees or risks involved? I can’t help but wonder why someone would hand over cash to get out of a lease.
