State, postal officials warn Minnesotans about secret shopper scam.

One Waconia woman enmeshed in a secret shopper scam in late October responded to an ad in a metro daily.

The unsuspecting victim received a legitamate-looking packet ? a packet that included a code of business conduct and ethics page ? and a cashier?s check for $2,830.

They could earn $200 for completing a probational training assignment, they were told.
