Sent a check and asked to deposit and go to Walmart and buy gift cards and stay in constant text with office or Paul brown.

No story here . Did not participate in this scam . Reporting so others can catch and stop them.

The check looks attractive to people with no income and brains right now .

I received a text message with a link to a site that said it was hiring secret shoppers for Walmart, etc. and to fill out my name and address and would pay $500 per assignment. Then I received a priority mail 2-Day envelope from USPS from an Angela Shah, 2906 Sunwood Dr, San Jose CA 95111-2268. Included was a certified check from NFCU in the amount of $3250 from a Remitter: Lorenzo T Dominick, and a "Confidential" letter addressed to Agent #2660, saying to text or email "Your name and I'd complete the task as instructed in my assignment guide."

It then said to cash the check, buy a $50 cashier's check to the American Cancer Society and take a picture. Then go to 2 Walmarts and buy gift cards and buy $70 of merchandise at each. Then to take pictures of the scratched off cards. Texting to 937-541-0841 to Luis Hernandez. I also received follow up texts, asking if I'd received the check, etc.

I believe they got my information from Job search sites as I am looking for a job and put out a lot of applications. Thought it was real until I read the letter

May 8 I received a package in the mail, it contains a letter with instructions to be a secret shoppers, a check of 2987.00. I have to let him know I will perform a survey making a report in customer service at my bank cashing the check buying a cashier check to American Cancer research association. So I taught it was real after I have go shopping to 2 different Walmarts to compare and buy 3 card at each Walmart with $400 dollar on each gift card scratch the area with pin numbers and take a picture band send to the phone number. Keep updating the agent. He was nice and kind to me. He said I did a good job. So on Wednesday May 13 I got other package but this time it wasn't any instructions but 2 check for supposed assignments 2 and 3. I cashed the check again and went to the same Walmarts and make a survey I bought 3 cards at the first Walmart and I tried to do the same thing at the second but I couldn't so I only bought 2. For some reason he kept saying it was real I send all the gift cards numbers pictures. I had a thought about investing and I found that Walmart doesn't contract secret shoppers and it was a scam fraud. I feel so sad, scared because the guy still sending messages today and I don't know what to do.

I was online browsing searching for a 2nd job and as usual I would fill out basic info like my name, address and phone number. I was contacted via text message on my phone stating “congratulations you have been selected to be a secret shopper in your area, you will be compensated $500 per week for your job. You will receive instructions via mail.” Within 2 days of getting that message I received a check in the mail for $2,987.00 my heart was jumping for joy and read the form that came with it. The form stated the instructions of 2 businesses I need to evaluate my bank and 2 different Walmart locations. I was instructed to keep $500 for my fee and the rest to use to purchase gift cards.i was told to be discreet and evaluate the employee whom I make contact with and send the evaluation via email that was provided on the letter. I conducted the task at Walmart and purchased $1200 worth of gift cards and followed the instructions of taking pictures of the gift cards along with the back of it and a copy of the receipt from Walmart to prove that I purchased it. If it wasn’t for my roommate mentioning that it’s a new scam I would have never looked into it. I almost didn’t believe her until I decided to check the balance on the gift cards and when I did the funds has been used to purchase multiple items online via amazon. Only 2 of the 3 gift cards funds were depleted. The last gift card still had its funds in it so I try going to the store and purchase another gift card with it so they can’t use it. I was unsuccessful after going to Kroger and Walgreens. Walmart was already closed as it was after 10pm on a Saturday night when all this came about. Hoping the funds will be in there by morning so I can go to Walmart and exchange the funds unfortunately the gift card was almost used before I can go to Walmart. I did more research on this and found out it’s been happening more than I know. I always told my friends google is your friend and once I typed in the name of the business there’s multiple different articles on the same company that’s listed on the form of reports of them being a scam. I read one article of a lady who also fell for the same exact scam. She’s right it was too good to be true and in my mind the whole time prior to finding out it was a scam that this was going to be the easiest $500 I’ll ever make per week. They need to spread the word because they are targeting people who are searching for a job online. The form I filled out was too basic it just asked for my name, address and phone number. Luckily I used my post office box.

I got the same thing. I have not done anything since the gift card thing is a red flag. I deposited the check and it appears to have cleared. I was able to withdraw the funds but still haven't done anything because I'm just flat out scared. I would love to hear from someone who has done this and has something positive to say.

Fake check.

Recieved in the mail USPS priority mail 2 day shipping, 2,930.00 check, with odd instructions to do secret survey from two different walmart stores with taking 350 as payment. Ripped up the check and threw it away after doing online research a lot of people had kind of thesame thing, number 770-626-0187 [email protected] name Patrick Parson, I would not fall for this and highly recommend researching.

I received a priority mail envelope from Paul Newton with instructions as well as a $2350 cashier's check. The instructions say to cash or deposit the check. Take cash to two separate Wal-Mart locations and purchase three $400 gift cards at each. The additional $350 is listed as compensation for doing the shop. After purchasing you're instructed to text a picture of the 16 digit card number and 4 digit pin.

I researched and found the company is fraudulent and the routing number listed on the check is not a valid number for this financial institution nor any other in the US.

Signed up for a secret shopper job over E-mail, thought it was just going to be about 500$ covering small secret stuff like I've experienced in the past. When I got the check, it was nearly 2,500$ for gift cards and a few small items. The amount got our hackles up, so we took a look around and found this.

We're planning to take this to our credit union in hopes they can help us file an official report.

They sent me a Cashiers Check in the amount of $2,350.00 along with a instruction letter. They proceeded to ask me to cash this check. If I could not get the check cashed then I was to put it in my bank account for 24 hours then take out $350 for myself and buy 5 gift cards for $400. I was to score them on how fast they took, cleanliness of store, weather they greeted me as I entered the store. After that I am to do the same thing all over again. Once that has been accomplished then I was to contact them by email or text message and they would get me started on a new assignment.They assigned me a task manager Daniel Woodman at 707 409-7567 to send photo copies of the gift cards I purchase.

I was connected by a Lawrence walkoviak via text not even really sure how stating that something was sent in the mail for a mystery shopping job I applied to and as soon as I got it to text him back I laughed so it came in the mail today November 21st 2019 and it's obviously just a ridiculous cam it's a 2865 dollar cashiers check with a purchaser name of Brandy L Johnson supposedly purchased from BancFirst Oklahoma City, Ok on November 14 2019. With a letter describing my task to cash the check and buy 6 $400 Walmart gift cards, scratch the pin and number take pictures and text and email back to them. Hahaha and then it says what I'm observing is just my experience nothing detailed about what the actual business asks of the mystery shopper know just something random that they threw in there to get their money I mean guys don't fall for those nobody's going to send you $3,000 in the mail and trust you with it especially a cashier's check this company could not have been more obvious and so bad at what they're doing but I figured I might as well add my complaint to it because I saw that there was others but mine actually contain some different names and address. Of the address I included was just the return address on the postage and when I looked it up it was a house in New York.

I received this letter and check in mail with instructions on what to do. Also I got a text thursday from them as well saying I should recieve it no later then Friday. And instructions on what to do. Checking into if it is a scam or not I googled it and sure enough another lady had the exact thing happen to her just the amount was like 30.00 off I believe. Mine check they sent me was for 2980.00 and she said hers was 2,950.00. When I read her story I looked and sure enough the check does not have no phone number or address for the bank. Which it is on Suntrust Bank account. Has purchased Diane Vitals on it and it is date Nov 6 2019

I responded to an offer I received via email for a part time job as a secret shopper. They contacted me via text to confirm my interest. I told them I was no longer interested. That was several weeks ago.

Today I got a text from “Edward Yen” saying that my survey package has been sent to me via USPS. I received a Priority Mail envelope that contained a check in the amount of $2,980.00 with a letter (with no letter head or business address) giving me instructions to cash the check instantly. The letter went on to give me some convoluted instructions about purchasing a cashiers check made out to Breast Cancer Research, going to 2 different Walmarts and buying gift cards, taking pictures of the cashiers check and the gift cards and texting them to Edward Yen.

The only mailing address was on the priority mail envelope and is likely taken from an unsuspecting business( Amy’s Hallmark Shop in Texas). The letter gave “Edward Yen’s” email address ( for sending him “vital and useful” info about my bank and Walmart: [email protected]. It also has a phone number that says “text only”: 929-244-0351. At the bottom of the letter there is a business name (no website) “Postedjobsinc Professional Survey and Research Group”.
