They texted me wanting to know if I could be a mystery shopper. I went ahead and sent an "application" in but had a bad gut feeling and after googling I feel it is a scam.

I answers on line to be a MSPA secret agent at Walmart. I'm to text "LOCATION" to 469-909-1575 and one of their representatives will guide me during this assignment. I'm to cash check of $2,940.00 and keep 540.00 and use the rest to buy Kroger cards and keep them in a safe place. Then email my report to [email protected] and wait on my second evaluation assignment.

My cashiers check that I deposited by them came back UNAUTHORIZED. Basically someone on their misappropriated funds from a legitimate company. I’m filing MD Attorney , FTC. I’ve began process contacting fraud department at both Walmart & Kroger.

I have the same experience with the exact same instructions. The money hits your account and clears, but after you purchase the gift cards, the money is then taken out of your account. I would suggest that you watch your check for a couple days after you get the full amount in your account. The evening that I saw the check leaving my account, I used the gift cards so that they would not be able to have access to them. I will be able to keep about $600 out of the $2940 that was taken out of my account.
I also found this “job” on Facebook jobs, so if you do t get an application, do not do the job. It will be a scam.

Same thing happened to me, I was able to cash the check. I never deposited nor have my bank information. Do anyone have an update on what happens if you keep the money?

Mystery Shopper Scam. Same story-content as reported by others with a letter from MSPA Agency's representative, Dustin Taylor and an enclosed check from Home Bank, Lafayette, LA for $2,940.00 that we need to deposit at our own bank; then instructions provided to keep $540.00 as our payment as their Mystery-Shopper, then purchase from Walmart location we visit, 6 Kroger cards of $400.00 each...and report the service provided by Walmart staff to [email protected], etc...

I have received a check from Home Bank, Lafayette, LA; Remitter is Andra Lucas. Priority USPS Mail is from Raan Yoeli at 3537 Bimini Avenue, Hollywood, FL 33026-4649. Same content as reported by others. Letter from Dustin Taylor, MSPA Agency said this was to do a shopping evaluation of and for Walmart. Deposit check, keep $540 as salary, buy 6 Kroger gift cards, do written evaluations, and text "Location" to 469-796-2117 on arrival at Walmart...It was a gut feeling I had that this could be a scam and I will be clarifying it with my LegalShield Attorneys to clarify and act accordingly as legally advised.

I received a check today from Home Bank for 2,940.00. Supposed to text Dustin Taylor after I deposited check. I was to keep 540 as my salary. Go to Walmart purchase 6 Kroger cards for 400. I’ve worked with the public before and we were always told to watch people purchasing lots of gift cards and big amounts.

I received a check but I dont remember that name Dustin. TAYLOR. BUT ALL THE SAME EXCEPT WANTED ME TI BUY MINEY ORDERS FROM WALMART.

This is the same person that sent mine. I thought it might be legit . I used to work where they had mystery shoppers . I thought this will be extra money . Purchasing those gift cards in those amount’s I knew something was up.

I received a check and a letter in the mail along with several checks to prompt me to do what the letter requested. In the check there was a $2940 check that requested I deposit in my bank and then get $2400 in cash to take to Walmart to buy six Kroger cards of $400 each to evaluate the store as they have had reports of underqualified staff, slow services, rude attendants and excess charge. This seems odd as Kroger is associated with Fred Meyer not Walmart. So I looked up MSPA-Agency LLC and figured out it was a scam as several other people also had the exact same story. The person I was supposed to contact was Dustin Taylor at [email protected] and when I was on my way to Walmart I was supposed to text Location to (469) 796-2117. The text prompts I received were from (716)291-2938 and (775)223-2578.

Same number and name that was on mine.

Actually, this is my second time this year receiving a check to be a mystery shopper. I shredded the first one because I called the bank and asked them about it. They said if I put it in my account and it was a scam, I would be prosecuted for it. The young lady said they were making the checks look like real checks now, so I just shredded the check. On that check it didn't have the voided after so many days on it which made me suspicious. Also, why would Home Bank be paying me a check if we're suppose to be working for MSPA Agency. This check I received in the mail yesterday, is for $2940 and to take $540 and by six Kroger gift cards for the next assignment. I will be shredding this check as well because I'm not taking jobs from no one that I don't speak on the phone with. I was scammed years ago with an online position that sent me a check and I deposited it and the bank took all my money that I used to pay my bills with. Plus I wasn't even working then, so you know I was depressed. The person that is the contact for this check is Dustin Taylor and the remitter name on the check says Andra Lucas.

A friend stopped in today to see me. He was on his way to the bank with a check he received. I told him to be careful and advised him about this type of scam. As it turned out, I was right.

Its the same as all of the above. Received the same amount in a check with a letter from MSPA Agency with the instructions, which are also the same. " Keep $500 and buy 6 Kroger cards from Walmart. " The bank the cashiers check is drawn on is Mazuma -7260 W. 135th st. Overland Park, KS...The letter also shares the same name in the signature as in the above posts, which is
"Dustin Taylor".

The letter on its very last line states Copyright 2019 MSPA-Agency LLC. All rights reserved.

Letter wanted me to cash a check for the amount of $2940 made payable to me dated 1/31/2020 on the bank of Intrcoastal Bank 1290 NW Palm Coast Parkway in Palm Coast, FL remitted by Steven Watters. I was to cash it and but 4 $400.00 Kroger gift cards at Walmart and keep $500.00 for the job and save the 4 gift cards to do a job at Kroger. And if the kroger GMC werent at walmart I was to text the number given for further instructions. All the different names and states made me google it and Donald price does not even work for MSPA which is a legitimate Company. The letter also was not Letterhead and that also gave me cause for concern.
