Here is a dumb question.
And I don't mean to say I'm going to do this or think you should try to do this.
But given the anonymous nature of mystery shopping, the anonymous nature of PayPal, the anonymous nature of electronically withdrawing and sending funds....
Does anyone "get around" the rotations for mystery shops by having multiple accounts with the same mystery shopping companies? I don't know why you would for numerous reasons. First, if you are doing this to get around a rotation, you're doing shops pretty regularly--this wouldn't be "newbie" move. Secondly because I'm sure you'd be deleted from their system if the MSC found out and you'd lose the revenue you tried to expand. And lastly, because I guess it would be a form tax evasion if done on a scale--you'd need a different SSN from someone or a different TAX ID number.
But I was curious if anyone was doing this...because I could think of some reasons why you would as well.
The reason I ask was because there was a story done on internet message boards a few months back. The report stated that there was one guy (a Trump fan) admitted posting under 12 different names to make support look bigger than it was on that board. I imagine this happens quite a bit on these message boards and it would have to be allowed by the powers that be. It would seem (that in an extreme case perhaps) that as long as the shops were getting done and the companies that were being shopped saw that it was a different shopper doing them...perhaps they too would look the other way. It would raise the completion % of the company.
Anyway, sorry if this a taboo topic.
