Are we really this gullible?


I am not sure that it is a situation of being gulible. The economy stinks right now, so people are looking for extra jobs and other ways to make money. Many of these scammers place ads on legit sites, or get the email addresses from resumes posted online. Then, this is the kicker . . . when you take the check to the bank the bank employees will tell you that the check has cleared or has been verified as good . . . this makes people feel safe about the check and then they continue on without any worries. Then, a week or so later, the bank will call back and inform them that the check is counterfeit and that they need to pay back the entire amount.

Someone please let me know about this. So out of nowehere I got this same email everyone has posted on Sunday and I answered it. Now today I received through fedex three money orders from money gram each one worth $850. They never answered my first email where I sent my information so I never got an assignment like many of you have nor are these checks. Technically this is like having cash in my hands because they are paid for since they are money orders. I emailed them back asking what my assignment was prior to googling this topic and finding this website. I realize this 99% a scam from what everyone has said but at the same time I don't have a check I have money orders. I'm too freaked out to try to cash them because I don't want them to be fake and for my bank to think I'm some thief. Has this happened to anyone? I'm waiting for them to email me back in reference to my "assignment".

They almost got me! I was looking for money gram locations on google when scam came up.. come to find out! I almost got tricked! That is the e-mail they sent me this morning. The check isnt here yet, I dont know what I should do it once it comes. I was kinda hoping it was an exception but from doing research the messages all say the same thing.

I got contacted by two ppl, and I contacted each one of them in case they knew each other. the two ppl who contacted me were named Michael Hamilton "Hiring Manager" and someone named Garry Roy. I emailed Hamilton with no response and and invalid phone number. When I emailed Garry, this is what i got:

hello, you can get back to me with the details of the MTCN and al u think i will need to get the money out.
roy


On Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 12:18 AM, I wrote:

Hey Garry,
I just got an email from Michael Hamilton the hiring manager? Telling me to go to western union and that the money is already being sent. Should I forget about the money gram and Walmart? Or do I now have 3 assignments?

It is better to just block their email address and NOT talk with them again. They are probably in another country, but why take any chances.

Instead of writing an angry letter to the scammer, you could write a letter to your local news media or government agencies asking for more scam education and awareness. Education is the key to fighting these scams, so we are trying to get the word out everywhere we can!

I think they almost got me :x But I started to smell something fishy so I found this forum.

I saw the ad on craigslist and applied for the job. Here is the first email I got back:

Hello,

Its good to hear from you, we at Dawson Mystery Shoppers (DMS) Inc© are an independent company that conduct surveys and stealth evaluations of companies and organisations. Our vast pool of mystery shoppers pose as normal customers to perform specific tasks—such as purchasing a product, asking questions, registering complaints etc – and then providing detailed reports or feedback about their experiences.

Unlike the methodologies used in mainstream market research, mystery shopping attempts to gauge the service delivery process instead of the service result. You are to visit businesses to evaluate; these evaluations are done anonymously, with you posing as a regular customer. After which you are required to complete a detailed critique, including a writte n report of the visit, customer service, salesmanship, hospitality amongst other things that will be spelt out to you.

Examples of details you are to send to us are:-
1) How long it took you to get services.
2) Smartness of the attendant
3) Customer service professionalism
4) Sometimes you might be required to ruffle the attendant a bit, to see how they react to clients when under pressure.

After which we then customize your evaluation criteria and communicate your results back to the companies in an accurate, comprehensive and timely manner and they would carry out their own duties in improving these services to meet the goals and expectations they have established for their customers.


Your identity would be kept confidential as the job states (Mystery shopper) you would be paid a fee of $200 for every duty you carry out, and bonus on your transportation allowance, and funds would be given to you each time you have to dine as part of the duty.

If you are interested kindly fill out the form below as we would need the details for sending payment packages and also to find assignment areas that are close to you and would offer you flexibility.
An acceptance e mail would be sent to you once you are confirmed for the job; Emails would be sent to you on what and where your duties would be a day or two before assignments are carried out

If you are still interested, Please reply this e-mail with the following information:-

Full Name:
Mailing Address (no P. O. Box please):
City:
State:
Zip Code:
Cell Phone:
Home Phone:
Gender:
D.O.B:
Marital Status:
Best Times To Call:
Present Job Status/Position:
Email:

Best Regards,
Attn: Mark Sullivan

I replied with the information requested and got this email back:

Hello ,

Congratulations your application has been viewed by our Hiring department, and has been approved. Through extensive background checks your information has been reviewed and processed.It is a pleasure to inform you that you have been cleared to receive employment from us.

Your first assignment would be to run a survey on two(2) prominent companies in your area, whose exact location would be disclosed to you later on,Both companies are listed below.

The 1st is a Money Gram Location

The 2nd a Restaurant


The management and staff of Money Gram has reported a lapse in the services of their Management and some of their staffs.

Their complaints were based on reports which several customers forwarded anonymously and Phone calls which were also made to the head office.

The Money Gram location was reported for evaluation for the following reasons.

I) Customers have reported their money missing
ii) Slow services
iii) Unbalanced exchange rate
(Iv) Poor services
(v) Rudeness to customers
(vi) Absence of signs indicating the presence of the outlet.

The 2nd company was reported for:

(I) Poor level of hygiene
(ii) Rudeness to customers
(iii) Time wasting
(iii) Late opening time and Closing before time.

Your Secret Evaluation (first assignment) would be

1) To make a transfer of fund from this Money Gram location to our Mystery shopper at another location which would be given to you,and the funds would be picked up by our mystery shopper based at the location were customers filed reports of missing funds.

2) You would have to record the time at which you got to the location and the duration of the transaction.You would be sent a check which would cover your payment of $200 for the duty. As soon as you receive the check, you are to cash it, and deduct your $200, and use the rest of the money for the assignment.

3) Upon receiving the payment package, the locations address would be forwarded to you, and also the Name and address of whom the Mystery shoppers transfer would be made to. You would have to keep a comprehensive report on every activity you carry out.

4) You would also give me the name of the cashier that attended to you.

Instructions on how second assignment would be carried out would be sent to you on completion of the first assignment.

As a reminder:
Every activity of Mystery shoppers remains a secret between you and your employees. As as the company reserves the right to every documentation and information which you gather on behalf of the company. More so, I will always provide the necessary funds for you to carry out any project/assignment given to you.


Let me know if you are ready for this task , so that I can prepare the cashier for this activity and get the check to cover the cost of the wire transfer and your commission ASAP.

A swift acknowledgement of receipt of this email and your readiness to continue with this job will be appreciated.


Best Regards,
Attn: Mark Sullivan

The phone number is in San Antonio which is only about an hour from where I live. I googled Dawson Mystery Shoppers and did not find anything on that name. I emailed them back and told them I was ready to move forward so I am assuming I will be getting a check in the mail soon. What should I do with it? Take it to the police?

Thanks,
Lisa

You could try to contact the police. Depending on where you live and if the police gather any info on these scams, they may take it. If not, destroy it.

I also received a letter in the mail this was from American Financial Group and had a phone number and P.O. Box address in Austin, TX. When I looked at the post mark it was from Canada. I was skeptical as this sounded too good. Lucky I found you. It did have a check enclosed from Sun Trust/North Florida N.A. Jacksonville Urban League.

The instructions were almost exact of all the other stories on this site.

What is the best way to stop these people? Is there someone I can contact locally on this?

For now, education is the best way to fight these scams. Since the scammers are in another country, it would be the law enforcement and government in THAT country that would have to do something about it.

You can help to educate others by spreading the word about these scams. Tell your friends, join our facebook group (use the link in my signature to find us on all different social networking sites) and use the Share button at the top of this page to link our site directly to your social networking pages or email it to your friends.

I received the same latter as others. A friend said she had been scammed by someone this way, so I decided to check this out so as not to be on probation as she is for falling for their scam.

They say they are with Consumer Survey Specialists and give address as A&A Associates LLB., Bellvue, NE 68123 and say they are Member of AAi Group of Companies. Telephone number Accounts is 1-647-1215 Fax number is 1-800-654-5287.

Mystery Shopper Evaluator is job description evaluating Money Gram Agency or Western Union Corp. Sent a check from SAC Federal Credit Union, Cashier's Check 27-8344/3040, Check Number 10002815. Noticed it was mailed from Canada, with a Canada postage mark and Canada postage stamp. All this did not add up.

Sure wish this wasn't a scam as i am disabled, and daughter is on 30 day medical leave from her job and could have used the money to pay bills.

Thank you for keeping people informed, and out of trouble with the law.
