I found and joined up for this forum bc I receive so many scam emails about mystery shopping. I have always wanted to become a mystery shopper but never trusted any of the emails but could see that this one was legitimate. Now, I just need to figure out how to go about finding legitimate jobs in my local area (Raleigh, NC). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
