Anybody get surveys that as if you'd like to be a mystery shopper?

[catchow]

hmm no I havent got any of those yet, have you received multiple ones?

[annadote]

I haven't seen any surveys like this, but I guess if you think about it, completing surveys about retail stores is like being a mystery shopper without advance notice.

A couple of times, I passed on them.

[dsawan]

usually dont do those types

[pstovall]

Hmmmm, don't think I've seen one of those.  I'm not sure how that would work.  Were they trying to see if you would want to be a mystery shopper?  Sounds like something I would not want to be involved in, so guess it's good I've not seen that one.

I think if you see those it would be a good idea not to do them. I called the store that they were supposed to be for and they do not participate in such a thing. I started receiving text messages with offers so I had to check it out

[elvisdo]

I always pass on those ones.

[NRAJOE]

Not in a long time, not interested anyways...

I have not seen a survey about mystery shopper.

I looked into Mystery Shopping back in the day...I am sure there are some who make some $ doing it, but I found the rules to be very strict for lots of the "shops".  I've never seen a survey about it.

If I get one, I always opt out. I don't have time to do these sorts of tasks. Anything more than a survey or forum panel discussion and chances are, the reward isn't worth the efforts in my experience.

I don't recall a survey invitation for mystery shopping.  I have done a couple of shops offline some years ago but they had nothing to do with a survey invitation.

That's one good way to find out if the invitation is legit or not.  Mystery Shopping in itself is a legitimate industry.  Unfortunately there are many scams as well.  It's just like many other things I suppose.

I get on here on a daily basis, and I can't say that I have seen any mystery shopper offers or surveys in all my time here. I have been here for approximately 3 months.

I sure agree with that, some of that it end up with scams
