Hey everyone! I'm new to all of this, never done it before. About 3 weeks ago i signed up with a mystery shopping co, filled out app etc. It said i would receive a confirmation email. Never happened. Today I received a large priority mail envelope. Inside was a letter from a Jason Brown with the website of www.shoppremier.org. But the clincher was a legitimate looking cashier's check for $1,987.52 from Arvest Bank in Lowell, Ar. The remitter is Paul Wood. Has my full name including middle initial.
Instructions are to deposit check then in 24 hours withdraw cash, keep $200 for my commission, spend $15 at Walmart then purchase 4 Greendot Money Paks for $425 each then text the pin #s to the telephone # given and email a photo of them to him.
First, I'm not completely stupid lol. But what gets me is the authenticity look of the check. Complete with watermarks, 11 security features etc. How does that person know someone wouldn't cash (if legit) the check and keep it. Then, I had been reading through some of the posts on here and Corporate Research International's logo is on it.
I googled the name and landed here. I also went to the shop premier website it gave.....doesn't exist.
Can someone please tell me about all of this. It is impossible for anyone to get money out of my account because I am broke lol. My ex ruined my credit already plus I have also been a victim of identity theft. So it's not possible for anybody to scam me out of anything lol
Thanks and sorry this post is so long :-/
