(The cards are available at Walmart Stores, CVS/pharmacy, Walgreens, 7 Eleven, Best Buy, Dollar General, etc.)

5: Go to the register and add cash of $500 to each card. $500 X 4 = $2000

Type of a scam Employment
This one was under the guise of a legit company, Consumer & Market Insignts (CMI) so one could easily be swayed. They have you fill out an online form with name, address, phone. And then send an email about a week later (from Anderson Cooper--odd), saying a check is in the mail. Sure enough, you get a Priority check on the date promised. But the check is from Harkor Homes, LLC in Houston. Very odd. All from different areas/parts of the country...but can't be connected in any way. And the address of companies are in 3 different countries.
BEWARE!!

2 days ago a man called the office and asked for Karen Williams (same name from email above), I stated that person doesn’t work here, they also mentioned the check and package via UPS and sounded very irritated I stated we do not send money or packages by mail. Clearly stated we did not send a package.
Today a man named Jeff from New Jersey called the office with same inquiry, asked me if it was legitimate because he had been contacted by Karen Williams stating same procedure from email above, offering mystery shopper position and sent him instructions on what to do along with an attachment (I removed attachment), he googled CMI because he thought it was some type of scam and that’s why he decided to contact the real company, he has forward email he received from “Karen Williams” below and said he also received the check today which he will shred. He mainly wanted to make us aware of the scam.
I was typing this email, another lady from Las Vegas called asking if Karren Williams works here, and I repeated the same statement. She was glad she called to verify.
I asked Jeff and the lady who called today, how are they being contacted by “Karen” if they are applying to a website? They both said the same thing, a person that they know suggested for them to apply to a link provided which only requires name and email address, then they receive email from Karen with instructions.
At this point I think it is important for you to know what is going on, we have been contacted by 4 people who took the time to google our information, we don’t know how many people have been contacted by that person.
Let me know the next steps.
Thank you
