Mystery shopping is one of the most common fronts used by scam artists.
The scmamers promise to enroll you in their program if you pay an initial fee, they send you to a store local to you to pay with your own money, they then send you a check that is bogus or cancelled before it was sent out.
Be wary of this scam, it happens ALOT, there are more mystery shopping job scam operations than there are legitimate mystery shopping companies. I’m sure the scammed will be ramped up during this recession.
I used to receive a spam e-mail about every day offering mystery shopper jobs. I never actually opened one of them as it was an obvious scam.
Despite that, I am sure there is a real use for genuine mystery shoppers. I suspect they don’t recruit through e-mail tho.
