Hi:

I have been MS'ing for 3 years. I am MSPA gold and silver certified. I have 6 years of retail experience and currently a full time mom. I have two children, a hubby of 8 years, a evil cat, and trying to find enough MS'ing and merchandising to keep me busy.

I love my job.

HI ALL!!

I, too am in Florida and am Silver and Gold Certified through MSPA. I've not a stranger to this forum, but it's been a little while and I appreciate the invite to come back and visit.

I do have a question and a problem that I'm currently ready to pull my hair out on and hopefully someone can walk me through this mess, as it's become quite an ordeal. I'm trying to upload 52 photots on to a gas station report and I must be doing something wrong. I've done them one at a time, spent numerous hours and seems all for nothing. I'm emailing editors for help, but not getting a response. Perhaps someone out there has some insight as to what I'm doing wrong and can assist me. PLEASE!!! THANKS!!!

Joan,

Sorry I somehow missed seeing your post. Hopefully by now you have it all sorted out, but if not, use your editing software to reduce the size of your pictures. I believe you are doing a Maritz shop and if I recall they only need about a 640x480 resolution. Chances are you are using a nice camera that is doing 2 megapixel or larger pictures. Make a copy of the pictures on your computer and try reducing them to about a quarter of the size you have now. Unfortunately I don't think they will let you upload them as zip files. And if it is Maritz don't wait for them to email you, they don't seem to know how. Rather get on the phone and call.

BOGUS. Do NOT attempt to deposit or cash the check. Turn it over to authorities with all the paperwork, envelope and such that came with it. See my other note to you. From the Service Evaluation Concepts website: "WARNING: Be wary of companies using some form of SEC’s name, location or logo in a scam that lures mystery shoppers into paid training assignments involving the depositing of large checks made payable to the shopper into the shopper’s account in advance of completing the requested assignment. Personal financial loss could result."

Service Evaluation Concepts is a legitimate company and obviously they have seen this scammer before.
