Our favorite mystery shopping tiktoker is back

So our favorite mystery shopping TikToker is back and boy does TikTok seem to have issues with her. I have not seen the original video but she apparently did one of her "famous" fast food mystery shopping jobs at Chicken Salad Chick. According to her (from what I have seen by the videos that are sharing hers) she claims the manager called her sir and she reported it and got her fired. Well Chicken Salad Chick came out publicly and said they have no mystery shop program and she completely made up the entire thing. As shoppers we all know we are not told the outcomes of our shops no matter how horribly wrong they go. That is not the way the programs works. Plus I saw the video someone posted and the worker was very polite and did absolutely nothing wrong. People on TikTok are calling her a scammer and saying she has a pyramid scheme going. Those that used to like her are now bad mouthing her. It is quite entertaining over there. It is all over my FYP so I can't miss it. I wonder if she is going to start suing commenters and people who stitch her videos like she threatened to do here?

Oh yes. Finally got busted. Goodbye Kayla
TikTok? What's that? A clock? I have no time for watching a dumb clock.

...a little bit of time for my buds here. smiling smiley
My friend's Peruvian wife calls it Tic Tac. She mispronounces quite a few things like that. Including Chipfilet. It's quite comical.

Oh man I really hope they C&D her into oblivion. If they feel like it they can burn her to a crisp.

She apparently did a live the other night and they were blocking anyone that had a negative comment. She also took down some videos.
I just saw this morning on the tic tac (love that!) that Chicken Salad Chic has come out with a statement that they do not know Kayla and do not hire mystery shoppers. Bye Kayla!
All I can think of is Marci from the Peanuts Gang and Peppermint Patty.

It has been all over my FYP…I did see once comment she made, arguing with the corporate CSC page, saying she was hired by the franchise owner. I call bs.

My son recently called Chips Ahoy Cookies "Chip Annoy" and little slips like that crack me up.

It’s for people with no more than a 15 second attention span.
It’s actually not…

Is it safe to ask if you’re into FB reels?

I highly suggest people use FB reels. Please use all META products. They one again crushed earnings and shot up 12% the other day. I wish I had more than the 700 shares I have, but still very happy with the performance.

Screw tic-tac. I wish it would go away. Or at least be sold to American interest. I hate how we allow so much foreign influence in this country all in the pursuit of $$$. We are quick to sell our country out.

China doesn't allow our tech companies into their market...why are we so quick to allow them?

It was a joke! Does ANYONE have a sense of humor on this board? Geezuz….
My reference to FB reels was a joke too. I have a great sense of humor. Any Gen Xer with a Gen Z child should understand and maybe chuckle.

Oh ok, I was referring to the first line, but I’m sure it’s hilarious. Just relieved to know it wasn’t a stalking attempt. LOL!
Is this the lady also on YouTube? I don’t have Tic Tok, but I have a feeling this person may be on both platforms…..
Yes

Her brand is Kayla Laughs Out Loud. If you can go onto Tiktok, you will see several folks calling her out.

I think she may be the only topic that everyone on this forum agrees with. smiling smileysmiling smileysmiling smiley
My partner uses Tip Tap quite frequently. I’ll have to ask him to look her up. And I too call it all sorts of dumb names like Tip Tap, Tic Tak, and whatever else comes to mind at the time!
Hello fellow shoppers, competitors, colleagues. Or just members. Maybe some of you, friends smiling smiley

I wanted to share the email that I received today from MSPA Americas. I know not all of us may have received it. It is regarding individuals on social media promoting mystery shopping. I will copy and paste the text here. I hope that many might find it helpful.

Don't feel pressured to discuss, please. There's another thread for that smiling smiley

I am just the messenger smiling smiley


Important Information For Independent Contractor Mystery Shoppers

You may have seen or heard of individuals on social media promoting mystery shopping through courses or content that seem exciting, entertaining, or even helpful. However, it’s important to understand that much of this information is inaccurate, unethical, and harmful to the industry you’re working in.

Yesterday MSPA Americas received a note from a concerned mystery shopper about one of these third-party groups which read:

"There is a social media creator on TikTok who is violating the code of ethics if indeed she is doing mystery shopping. She's filming employees of supposed mystery shops she does, the place, the result and where. She's laughing at ones being terminated, and she's also charging people for her course on mystery shopping. I have enclosed a screenshot of her social media name and account as well as a video of her advertising for her course she charges $97.00 for."

The person she is referring to is Kayla Sansom, but she is not the only one.

To the best of our knowledge, she is not receiving permission from the companies or clients involved to film or share these details. If true, this behavior violates the Code of Professional Standards and Ethics that all reputable companies—and shoppers—are expected to follow.


What You Should Know

MSPA Americas cannot discipline or remove someone who is not a member. Kayla Sansom is not a member, and the association does not endorse her or her content.

You, as an independent contractor, agree to confidentiality, professionalism, and accuracy when you accept assignments through legitimate MSPA member companies.

Filming shops, fabricating information, or publicly sharing shop details without consent is not only unethical—it may be grounds for termination from platforms, legal action, or both.

MSPA Americas exists to protect the integrity of the industry and provide resources that help you do your job ethically and successfully.


What You Can Do

Work only with MSPA Americas-accredited companies
These companies follow ethical standards and provide legitimate opportunities.

Be cautious of people or platforms selling “mystery shopping training” or access to job lists
MSPA does not charge shoppers to access jobs, and legitimate companies do not ask for payment upfront.

Know your rights and responsibilities
Read and understand the IC agreements you sign. They typically include strict confidentiality clauses that prohibit recording, sharing, or falsifying information.

Report misleading content on social media
If you believe a content creator is spreading misinformation or violating confidentiality, you can also report their videos or profiles directly to Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and TikTok. These platforms allow you to flag content that is deceptive, misleading, or harmful.

Stay Aligned with the Professionals
MSPA Americas is the official trade association of the mystery shopping and merchandising industry. We’re here to support you with credible information, job resources, and a professional code of ethics that helps you stand out in the field.

When in doubt, ask before you act—and protect your reputation and the integrity of the entire industry.

Please don't feed the MSF trolls!

Feeding the MSF trolls bread or other human food is detrimental to their health and the environment. It can lead to malnutrition, disease, and behavioral problems in trolls, as well as water pollution and the spread of pests. Trolls are capable of finding their own food sources and don't require human assistance.
Now the MSPA sent out an email specifically to warn about her! I don't think she'll be "laughing out loud" about that!
Thank goodness! Its about time!!! I hope others have reported her account on the ole tic tac as fraud. I have.

I'm surprised they named her and posted a screenshot of her account in the email!
Im glad they did! Kayla claims she is the "top mystery shopper in the country." If she is top, one would assume the MSPA would endorse and approve her. Now its time for the social media outlets to remove her. I hope everyone who paid her can dispute the charge on their credit cards.

Yeah, after thinking about it further, I think they wanted to make it clear that they didn't endorse her and she wasn't a member of MSPA.
Oh my goodness. Post the email I didn't get one. I know they are roasting her over on TikTok. We have been saying it for awhile now and all the sudden she has gone viral for being a scam artist. Those people leave no stone unturned, they pulled up her criminal records, are reading experts from her "book", its is crazy.
