Got a $1,950 check by 2 day mail. Instructions said to go to walmart.

And send $750 to Phillip Hughes in Conroe Texas by way of Walmart-2-Walmart transfer. Also $750.00 to a Richard Walden by Money gram. I recognized it as a scam because I have been scammed before. For one thing they want you to communicate with them by text or email not on the phone. They want you to deposit a check and send a large part of the cash to somebody as part of the scam.

It states on the site that they are BBB accredited but I am not sure i can trust this because it is asking me to buy $100 worth of stuff in Walmart then send money western union so they can identify what is happening with stolen money oversees. Which makes me think it is a scam. It states they will send me a check that is for $1950 that will be readily available to deposit in my bank.

Thre were instructions for an assignment as a secret shopper. I ws instru ted to cash the checkat the bank. If the bank doesn't give cash deposit it and complete the assignment the next day. Iwzs to. Deduct $350 which was my payment for this assignment and go to walmart and send$1950 in 2 different transactions through Walmart-to Walmart transfer to the receiving shopper and to use the remaining $100for the costs of the transfer. I was to stay discrete, thse send a text to (305) 203-7649 as soon as I withdraw cash from my bank and capture actual assignment timing on my profile. There ere two names of people who I wa to transfer the money to. One Nicole Varnado of Killeen TX76542 for $$980 and a Scott Wade of Mathis TX 78368 for $970.There were questions about Walmart, su h as; did find the money transfer stand easily, how was the outlook of the store, how was the professionalism of customer service, was the money transfer services efficient, was the Walmart close to my area and was the almart form reasonable with the number of questions andwas the print visible enough to avoid mistakes.

I found out that the check sent will be invalid after you cash it on your bank account.And you will be liable for the money given you when you chased it.

Got a text message about me shopping at Kroger and would I be interested in being a secret shopper. The email address is [email protected] and [email protected]. The check is for $1300, I was to keep $300 and spend the rest on Amazon Giftcards that I purchase from the store that totaled $1000. I was instructed to but the Amazon cards in increments of $150 and take picture of the card and send to email address. The person name was Bruce Rodgers

In December I answered an email request to be a secret shopper. A week later the person emailed and said I was accepted and would shop at Walmart. they asked where and they said I would not use my own money or check. So I sent them the Walmart address and said please write out everything you want me to do and ask. Then for the next week and a half, I kept getting an email asking if I got my package FED EXPress yet from them, after about 2 weeks, it did arrive with a check made out to me from tcf National Bank, 800 Burr Ridge Parkway, Brr Ridge, Ill. 60527-6486. The check was for $2,975.00. They asked me to deposit immediately and cash and ask my bank when when the money will be available to me, 2, Purchase a cashiers check of $300.from your bank and make it payable to "Allen U" (3.) upon availability of Funds proceed to the nearest Apple Store to purchase 3 Apple cell phones, and listed the numbers and colors they wanted, each at $700. each. Then email them to find the address to send to them from an email address they would send me after I emailed them requesting where to send the phones and the extra money left from the transaction.FED Express Air by 8:30am the next day. A list of questions was sent by Michael Gregory- I have torn up the check. They keep emailing me requesting "have I received their FED EX letter and check yet? It goes on and on.

A month ago I received in the mail a secret shopper offer and a check $1982.00. They told me to deposit the check into the bank. I went back the next day and withdrew the money. I went to CVS and to Walmart to get the Money Orders. I sent 2 money orders, one for $815 to Aldus Bagley in TX, and $825 to Stanley Nona in TX. I did it because it's what they wanted me to do. I got a call the next day from the bank advising me the check wasn't good. I kept all of the material

This email address contacted me though my text about being a mystery shopper earning $320 per shop it sounds really suspicious offering to shop twice a week it really didn't sound very convincing I felt I need to contact someone concerning this issue and hopefully you can someone can get to the bottom of this situation also they wanted to send me a certified check don't sound too legal.

I had thought it may be legit at first, because I did apply for a secret shopper job, I received an email saying my first assignment was on its way, in 2 hours I received an envelope priority mail first class from Fed Ex. The check looks real and its from Partners credit union of Colorado , routing 2715157. I called and the bank was real as well as the routing. Check is for $2850.00

Instructions were to cash the check, spend $50 on whatever I wanted at Walmart, Then to send $3000 by money gram, and to rate the customer service. That's when I knew it was a scam, Instructions were that I would keep $500 and items purchased. There was a warning that there may be a 24 hour hold on the check with the bank, but the rules stated the tasks must be completed within 24 hours of receiving the package. So I tried cashing it at Walmart and it couldn't be read, meaning, the check is not printed by the bank with magnetic ink. I did notify the authorities. Its a plot to get your bank info, and the check sender will receive a money gram. They messed up by asking to deduct your earnings of $500 from check but send $3000 by money gram, which is more than the check. Sloppy con!
