Hi every one.

Need feed back on Assignment that was giving to me without an interview for Mystery Shopping Job. I received a check for $3,996. to complete the assignment, but can't pull up the website..CD MONITORING RESEARCH SAVE GROUP..Can I get a reply back for this?.
The assignment was for me to deposit the check into my account, after three business days go back and withdraw $3,500. out use $450 for Probationary training pay, $100 for shopping, $290 for service charge,and $3,156 to be transfer to another mystery shopper.

What will you do?.. do the cash the check and do the job, or just run?.

Thank

Their check will bounce. This type of scam has been around for years. They are simply using your account to cash a bad check, and you will be stuck with repayment of whatever amount you send to them.

If you want to be absolutely sure, take the cheque to the bank on which it's drawn. Ask them to verify that the funds are there - you'll be told there are no funds and that the account does not exist. DO NOT DEPOSIT THE CHEQUE IN YOUR ACCOUNT! Go to the police and tell them what happened, giving them everything you received.

Again, save yourself some pain and do not deposit the cheque. We know it's tempting and looks like easy money ~ and it is, for the crooks not for you.

Please read the other threads on scams, all you need to know is there. Do NOT cash check, this is a scam using a legit Co.'s name.

100% Scam. Do scammer ever stop? I guest not. Buy a frame and place the fraudulent check over your desk. The check is worthless to you. Don't even waste the gas or phone call trying to report it to the police. Just go on with the rest of you life.

Hello every one.

I do thank you for all of your view point concerning this scam thing. I am glad to know that I am not the only one.

I was hoping it was for real, it would make the mystery shopping worth going after a lot more.

Thank again.

Call your local police or either the US Postal Inspectors Office. You may just hvae to go to your local post office and give them the information so it can be traced.

Nobody ever pays you before the assignment, and certainly not in the thousands of dollars. 100% SCAM!

Dont even bother taking it to the bank. Run as fast as you can to your trash can and throw it away. Dont you watch all the news reports about this. Judge Judy has it on her show four or five time a month
