“(First Name, Last Name), we have your interest about conducting surveys at stores around you. We are happy to inform you that you have been chosen to conduct surveys and we are ready to send you your first assignment once we receive your response that you are available and ready to begin the surveys.”
I thought it was odd that they didn’t give any identifying information, but was willing to take a chance, so I responded with: What’s the next step? I didn’t hear anything else. I didn’t see anything in my email.
Today, 07/10/2018, I received a FedEx package from Denver, CO, that contained a blank, sealed security envelope. It contained a two-page letter and a cashier’s check for $2,783.61 drawn on American Savings Bank, Honolulu, HI.
The letter indicated that I should confirm receipt of the package by email and an estimate of the time that it would take for me to complete the transaction(s), which must be within 48 hours. I should deposit the check, buy $2,200 worth of eBay gift cards, scratch off the silver covering on the back, and send pictures of the front and back of all the cards, as well as store evaluation report, within 48 hours of receipt.
There isn’t a company address anywhere on the letter. My name isn’t included anywhere except the FedEx sending label. The FedEx sender name is different than the letter’s author name, which is also different than the remitter name on the check.
Because they expected me to deposit a check and complete these actions of such high-dollar amounts in such a short timeframe made me leery. On top of that, they wanted the scratched-off numbers from the gift cards, essentially free access to the cards. The phone number in my text message matches one of the numbers in the letter, but that didn’t make me feel any better. I am reasonably certain that I would have been out $2,200 plus bank fees and they would have converted the eBay gift cards to their account, leaving me with nothing.
