Total money lost $350
Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
At this point, I'm also given a cashiers check from a credit union in the sum of $2450.00 to be deposited in person at my bank when I have time over the next few days. Every time I complete an action I'm to text stating each action had been completed. Once the funds were available I was texted to get to a Walmart of my choice as a secret shopper and look for the following. Cleanliness, friendliness, efficiency and if there Money Order machine was working properly. Then I was to get 3 separate money orders in the following denominations, $780, $720 & $500. Next, I was to submit my report via text back to them and then FedEx overnight all 3 Money orders to an address on Arrowhead Blvd, Apt #, Jonesboro GA 30236 for 10:30 AM overnight delivery. I could deduct the expenses for my Lyft rides and then deduct $250 from the remaining balance.
After getting home and speaking with my older sister on the phone who happens to work in banking she informed me that this is a type of scam and that the check I deposited would be taken back out of my account leaving me on the hook for the Money Orders. We couldn't find anything bad about the website and company name until we did a bit more research in the BBB Scam Tracker and found that this company had 2 other reported cases on March 9th & 11th just this year. I had documented the time that I entered Walmart as I thought timeliness was part of the observance and tried to call them to see if they could cancel them but their line was busy forever. At this point, I thought to call FedEx and put a STOP and CANCEL on the package before it gets delivered. They were great and did so. I had the package rerouted back to where I sent it from and will get it back Monday or Tuesday. I spoke with my bank this morning and they said to deposit the money orders when I get them back on Monday or Tuesday. I'm only out the pay they said I could keep, and expenses but this could have been a whole lot worse.
I'm working now to see if I can report this website to Google to get them removed from the search engine.
