I was scrolling looking for work. Then I replied to a kijiji posting about work. Not sure which as of now. But a few days later I got an email saying if I was interested in a job email Alfred. So I thought wth. Then his name was daniel williamson *** *** ** ***. I thought it was strange. Then I beg cane really suspicious because I was asked to make a job posting on kijiji and send emails to another email address. I forgot all about it, then the next day they sent me a copy of a cheque with my name on it and instructions on how to deposit the check by using the computer camera and cell phone screen. Then I was asked to go to Walmart customer service in reguards to information about unfair customer service. After I completed this I was to buy iTunes cards 500$ worth and take a picture and send them to him.Thats when I stopped replying. Also they wanted me to buy a printer with blank cheques to send to people within their organization because they were from the UK. And it costs to much money to send cheque’s by mail. When I do not answer them they demand I do and begin to call me from a states number. I have not answered one call. Also the check was from a Women name which wasn’t a name brought up.

I came across something on Facebook or email, I can't remember and signed up for a Secret Shopper job. I got stuff in the mail and was told I had been hired and my supervisor was named Michael ***. I was also given an "Official Temporary Contract" that had a typo right at the beginning, which had me suspicious. They sent me a check for $2450 that I was supposed to deposit into my bank, go to Walmart and buy several $200 gift cards. I would be paid $450 for doing this. Through the entire thing, I am supposed to text people about it and let them know at each step of the way. I never followed through with it.

After responding to a secret shopper ad on Facebook a check for $1950 was delivered by mail. Included were instructions to deposit the check, buy several gift cards at Walmart, scratch off the back and provide the numbers to the sender. I was to keep a portion of the check as my commission. I found it very odd that the sender also asked for my checking account routing number. I did not do as instructed but did call ScamPulse.com to discuss further.

Got a text message for secret shoppers in the mail and Jeffery Wisenburger told me my text message to cash check. Keep $400.00 for myself, then go to CVS, Walgreens and get to gift cards of $500.00 each, then take a picture of cards, back and front and send that to him. Send to shoppers info @ yahoo.com. That didn't some right so, I call the BBB.

I wanted a job that I could do my own hours , saw an email to do secret shopping. Sounded like a great job for me. Well yesterday i get a check in the mail for 2,365.00

Instantly alarms went off in my head. What company would send a check for such a huge amount to someone they don't know.

. I received a letter via United States mail priority 2 day mail addressed in my name with a letter from the Brandt group and a check for $2,450 saying they're going to pay me $200 to go spend this money at Walmart and as soon as I deposited the check into my bank account to send them a text and then when the funds were available to send them another text and that they would send me information on what I was supposed to do at Walmart. The check does not look real if you pay attention to it
