I'm wondering how high they will have to go to get anyone to take these shops? I'm also glad I'm not the only one who has no interest at all in this shop as I don't care to have my credit score impacted period. Playing out a scenario and acting a part I have no problem with, along with other behaviors needed to be successful with mystery shopping but a shop impacting my credit score? NO WAY!
