I had signed up to be a mystery shopper and Trevor Williams contacted me and had me to go and shop Walmart and Western Union. I would shop the places then I would deduct a fee of 200.00 then 40.00 for travel expenses then I would send the remaining to places like Nigeria and London. He had been calling me and harrassing me when I hadn't sent the other money orders. I had went to the bank to find out if they had been legit and I was told they were so I had done what I was told then about 2 weeks later they came back counterfeit. Luckily I hadn't sent the other ones but now I owe the banks 800.00 for the money orders. Trevor had sent me threating emails says if I hadn't  sent the money he was going to contact the FBI on me for stealing his money, fight which it wasn't his money it was mine.

AUTHOR: Steph - (USA)

first call

AUTHOR: fedup - La Puente (United States of America)

I contacted "Mystery Shopper" after reading an ad in PennySaver. 

I spoke with a person who asked me questions including my first, last name, phone number and address.  I hesitated to provide so much info without any from the other end of the phone line but I gave it anyway because the questions were so quick. 

When the person asked me if I could use a credit, debit or other form of card to make purchases, I said no I could not.  The person abruptly directed me to the website which led me to this ripoffreport website. 

I would advise all consumers to think twice before devulging personal information to a stranger you are responding to regarding whatever. I did not because frankly, between the many public and private agencies I deal with everyday, I've become accustomed to these questions to the extent that I can answer the next question before it's been asked!

A red flag should go up immediately when asked about financial information such as debit, credit card, banking information.  I am so grateful that the Mystery Shopper conversation ended at this point, especially after reading about some of the people who were ripped off by this and similar scams.

I would like to add that I've been unemployed for a while now and as such looking in every nook and crannie for some way to earn some income to support my family. I am definetly a target for anything.  Please be careful in this desperate economic time.

Probably so.

AUTHOR: Flynrider - Phoenix (USA)

  These scammers will continue to do this as long as there are enough gullible people who still do not know that anything involving Nigeria is a scam.    They're offshore, so there is nothing that law enforcement can do about it.
