Job - $1300 1st day

06-03-2006, 10:55 AM

My girlfriend called about a job in the local paper being a "secret shopper", going to stores, buying something, then reporting back to the company how the customer service is. They told her during the phone interview that if she got the job, she would recieve her 1st assignment in the mail.

Today she got the first assignment, $1300 check and she's supposed to goto Walmart, use MoneyGram and send $1200 to some lady with the same last name as my girlfriend. Then keep the other $100.

Now I'm not sure about this as to me it sounds like workin' for the russians laundering money. anyone ever heard of a job like this before?

sounds fishy to me...I would bet that the check is going to come back as stolen or fake and your GF is gonna be on the hook for the $1,300...

Wow, that does sound a little weird. Have you done a search on the internet about the company name?

That's a scam run by this guy:

http://www.paul-birdsall.info/

Google Payten Data Services or 212-461-2787 (his latest number being used to promote the scam) and read all about it.

The check is bogus.

The check is defintely going to come back bad. Have them ACH or wire the money and you'll see they won't do that.

I can't believe the stuff people fall for.

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.

scam
if it was a real customer service test the most would be $100 and a $15 payout to her.. but not $1300

that's kind of obvious

Heh...people are still falling for this shit? The check is bad. You send them $1200 and two weeks from now your bank will tell you that the check they sent bounced. You'll be responsible for paying that money back to the bank.

Very -- soon as she got it she was ready to go cash that bitch... but something just didn't sound right.

So who should we report it to? police? BBB?

Some asshole tried to scam me like that with a guitar I put up for sale on ebay and he had just registered that day. I told him to Fuck Off but still lost the fees for the auction because ebay's a fucking joke when it comes to enforcing shit. At least you found out before she went through with it.

Did you have to sign anything?

I don't understand why people get scammed, you should just deposit the check and don't send them anything and see what happens. ;)

and still lose because I have to pay the bank a fee for bounced checks I think?

Fuck all of that. But I want to report it to someone. She was just looking through the local paper for a job and almost got scammed. I wonder how many others around here got took.

I believe check cashing places use a system that can verify if the check will clear or not. I know that the company that verifies the checks guarantees them. I went to cash a $1300 check at one when out of town and it was a holiday, they said I would have to come back the next day when they can verify it.
