Here is the text message I received - clearly a scam.

Plus the phone number looks very close to my son’s- “Awesome it's Xmas offer !!! Wal-Mart store ® is beginning an exceptionally huge research project in your area.

I knew it was a scam immediately because Walmart does not have my phone number. I don't share my phone number with almost nobody and don't have internet/apps/wifi data on my phone. I didn't give my number to anyone at walmart or other retail stores. thanks

- Kings Mills, OH, USA

This was mailed to me Priority Mail by Lekeisha Gourdine, 701 Madison St, Petaluma, CA 94952 with a letter and a $4,900.00 cashier's check from the *** *** 101 W5th St. PO Box 80 Spencer IA 51301-0080. The letter was from *** telling me I was a Secret Shopper and needed to deposit the cashier's check in my account. Once the money cleared my account, I was supposed to withdraw the money and go to *** and purchase 4 blank *** Money Orders in the amount of $1,000 each. I was then told to text/SMS to 302-497-3348 to George Nelson 302-497-3348 and go to FEDEx immediately and send overnight to the addresses provided to me from George.

- Caldwell, ID, USA

I do not have caller ID on my landline phone so I did not get the caller's phone number. This afternoon (7/24/19) I received a call from a friendly English speaking young women telling me she is calling on behalf of our local Caldwell Walmart in regards to their online pick-up service. She asked if I had ever used it before and I told her I had and that I liked it. She then told me that for only about an hour of my time Walmart would pay me $100 to review this service they provide. All I would need to do is schedule a time when a representative would come to my house and assist me in making an online order and then I would pick it up at the store. After that, I would just need to evaluate the service I received to get the $100.

There were so many red flags in this call. First, I told her I had already used the service and liked it, why would I need assistance in making another order? Second, who would pay for the order they coached me through? Third, they would be sitting right there when I placed the order and would then have access to my payment information, either in person or in a fake online document.

I told the caller no thanks and hung up.

I called the ScamPulse.com which confirmed that it had all the markings of a scam and they urged me to make this report and to call my Caldwell Walmart to ask them if this is part of their business.

I called Caldwell Walmart and spoke to 3 different department managers and all told me that this is not a part of their business. They assured me if Walmart was conducting a survey in this nature it would be strictly online, no purchase necessary and no home visit.

- North Pole, AK, USA

I’ve received two texts over a two day period claiming to be Wal-Mart Loyalty Program gifting me with something and I just needed to click the link sent via text by the scammer to collect. Wal-Mart does not contact anyone via text their scam site says so..

- Boise, ID, USA

Received a phone call on my cell phone at 12 pm yesterday. 3/28/2019.

It was from a restricted phone number. I normally do not answer calls from a restricted number but I have a close friend who has a restricted number and I had seen him the day before.

When I answered the phone I thought it was a joke my friend was playing on me.

The call: The man said his name was David W*** and he was with Walmart and I had won 2.35 million dollars from a contest or online survey I had entered. David W*** had a Jamaican accent. He gave me his ID number as 112233 and asked me to write down some information. Tracking number 843518596437325, Bank number DD104702.

He wanted to know which bank they could sent the messenger too. He gave me two choices, one of them was my bank.

Then he wanted to know if I wanted to meet at the bank or at my house. I said, the bank.

He then told me, I had won a bonus. Which Mercedes color would I like. Then, which insurance company I would like the paid insurance from. My choice were Geico or Allstate. I went with Allstate. He then gave me the phone number of the Insurance agency. 2085841122.

He went on to ask me how soon I could make it to Boise to receive my prize. I told him I was at work and could not leave. He said, "Tell your boss you have a family emergency and need to leave work".

He was very adamant about me needing to leave and go meet them.

They need to know how far I was from Burley, Twin Falls and Idaho Falls. Something about needing to meet them by 2 o'clock. When, I told him, that i could not leave he became more forceful with me. I hung up on him. He called me back 7 times.

To sum it up he gave me 2 choices for banks, 2 choices for insurance and how long I had been working for my current job.

Hopefully, this will help others

Multiple emails starting they couldn’t deliver my package and it the holidays I did order things from Walmart but made sure I checked who the email came from then I went to reply and it are back with a huge list. Or respondents and I knew it wasn’t Walmart.

Someone called and said that because I have paid my bills on time and purchased items at Walmart, I won a Mercedez Bens and 1.5 million dollars. The line cut and he said "Can you hear me?" And I said yes. He then said he was going to transfer me to his manager and put me on hold. His manager picked up and said that I have won a BMW and 2.5 million dollars. He eventually asked me what bank I use at which point I hung up. The same number called again numerous times, which I did not answer.
