FYI, I have been a mystery shopper for about 4 years. I have used very well known companies, but I received an e-mail from someone, who apparently I didn't read into too well. I received 2 postal service money orders each for $995.00 and was given instructions on how my shop would be performed. I was to receive $200.00 for this shop. Now, because I know better, I did a little research. The money orders are counterfeit, and I looked a little closer at the info sent to me. An envelope from one person, but the names on money orders something completely different! Just BEWARE! Mystery shopping companies normally don't pay that much! Keep your eyes open! I am trying to decide whether I should report this to the police, or contact the post office since that's where the money orders were drawn from???
