I saw an ad on a social media site for people to conduct market surveys for a company called Consumer-AI Surveys located in Los Angeles, CA. There was an "application" which I filled out. To the best of my recollection they only asked for basic information (name, address, email address, etc.), nothing like Social Security number or any account numbers which I would never give out. Within a day or so I was advised my "application" had been accepted and I would soon be receiving a check along with instructions. I received a check for $1,872.00 and was told to keep $350 as my payment. The check said it was drawn on Level One Bank(no longer in existence. Bought by First Merchant Bank in 2021) but had no other identifying information other than a Michigan address as you would usually see on a check. Also, the name on the check was Premier Title Agency, LLC with a Michigan address. I was instructed to take $1500 and buy three gift cards in the amount of $500 each for Nordstrom, Walmart Visa, American Express, and/or Sephora. After purchasing the cards I was instructed to take photos of the front and back of the cards and email back to Consumer AI Surveys with my review of their customer service and the overall appearance of the card display. This all seemed a bit "fishy" to me but I wanted to make sure so I tried to deposit the check and it was immediately red flagged by my bank. They told me the check was not authentic and it was part of a scam. They returned it and put a hold on my account for safety measures. I emailed "kimberly" the person that had been emailing me about the assignment and I told her that the check didn't clear. I haven't heard a peep from her again ever since.

I have been contacted by text about two weeks ago from Market CP Surveys. I didn't receive the email or check as they said I would, I think they were testing the waters before sending the information out. I am to deposit the check of $1910 when it arrives tomorrow on 9/9/23, deduct $350 for myself and then purchase 3 gift cards for $500 each. The selections are: Walmart, American Express, Nordstrom and Sephora. Then I am to fill out a form as if I am a mystery shopper afterwards and log my name, the store name and address and the date and time of visit along with three things that could be improved in the store (Services) and mark how long it took to purchase the cards. Lastly, take pictures of the front and back of the cards and send to them, and I "will be able to use them on future projects"

I saw an ad on a social media site for people to conduct market surveys for a company called Market CP Surveys (they used a few other similar names) located in Los Angeles, CA. There was an "application" which I filled out. To the best of my recollection they only asked for basic information (name, address, email address, etc.), nothing like Social Security number or any account numbers which I would never give out. Within a day or so I was advised my "application" had been accepted and I would soon be receiving a check along with instructions. I received a check for $1,877.00 and was told to keep $350 as my payment. The check said it was drawn on Bank of America but had no other identifying information as you would usually see on a check. Also, the name on the check was Stallion Contracting LLC with a Michigan address. I was instructed to take $1500 and buy three gift cards in the amount of $500 each for Nordstrom, Walmart Visa, American Express, and/or Sephora. After purchasing the cards I was instructed to take photos of the front and back of the cards and email back to Market Concepts. I was told not to use the gift cards because they would be required for my next "assignment". This all seemed a bit "fishy" to me. All the scams I hear and read about seem to involve gift cards. I decided to check the Better Business Bureau and read that someone else had encountered the same situation except that the check they received had a different account holder's name. They were advised the check was not authentic. I haven't even tried to cash or deposit my check because then the company would know my bank account number.

I received an email with an “assignment “ as mystery shopper. I never signed up to be a mystery shopper. I was to receive a check for 1877.00, deduct 350 for my commission. Then go purchase 3 gift cards for 500 each. Then photograph the front and back of the card with numbers scratched off or revealed. Fill out a survey form and email the form and photos to the email listed in the instructions. I did not cash the check or go to purchase the gift cards. I identified it as a scam so I am reporting it instead. I was scammed years ago by this same method.

Says market research and surveys. Sent me check for 1873.5 to put in bank and send 3 gift cards and act as if I’m secret shopper. They said send info to email with pictures of gift cards with all numbers visible and I get to keep my commission of the remaining money. Called bank they verified acct told me it was good this was 800 number at bank of west called them because check was from BMO HARRIS BANK who was merger with bank of west, went to cash thinking I would be told it was a scam and was told I had to wait until tues when the banks merged so went back tues and they found acct but check wasn’t going through still after about 45 mins it was finally realized that yes this is a scam. I reported to local police and wanted to inform others so here I am. They sent check from an acct from Alpaca Securities LLC. If the bank didn’t catch this or if I went and deposit It into a personal acct I would have been out a whole lot of money please beware!!
