Money Gram Scam throughSecret Shopper 2017 Corporate Research International Karl Phillips, Melissa Phillips, Melvin Harton, Robert Stanford, Pilar Hayer Fortunately I saw through this immediately but I see how some people could be fooled into doing this. Frankston Texas

This Company pretends they are doing a secret shopper survey and your target is money gram. They sent me a cashiers check in the amoun of $1993.00 along with complete instructions.  The instructions tell me i will be earning $200.00 For this assignment.  With enthusiasm and strict adherence to instructions. you will complete thes tasks independently within a few days.  Their words not mine..

!) send an email to confirm receipt of your packet as soon as you receive this memo evaluationgroups@usa.com your email inbox & spam folder for follow-up email instructions

2) please make a mobile phone check deposit (immediate funds availaability with processing fees applied) or go to your bank/atm to have it deposited this helps to confirm the right recipient has the check. ($1993.00) (email me immediately after the deposit has been made for the funds to be made available to you) & email a copy of deposit slip after the deposit has been made (evaluationgroups@usa.com)

3) The funds would be available in a few hours or the next vusiness day.  once funds are available you either withdraw the cash or use your bank cards at Walmart stores, thereafter deduct your commission which is $200 and extra $43. to cover cost money Gram Transfer charges for both tasks.  The balance of $1750.00 would be used to complete your secret assignments.

Anyway, the letter goes on to tell you to go to two different money gram locations and to send

Melvin Harton 5840 Spring Valley Rd. Dallas TX 75254 Send $890.00 via store A

Robert Stanford 5411 Vinechase Dr.Porter, TX 77365   Send $860.oo via store B

of course it goes on to tell you to email this that and the other and if i complete within 48 hours i will receive an additonal $500 mone;y gram gift voucher which would be posted to your address alongside a first survey completion certificate.

I do see what may be a phone # 601-473-0112. smsonly

i do still have the letter along with the money order in hand.

These people will have you use fake funds to send their contacts this money and when the cashiers check comes back as no good i will be stuck owing the bank the lost funds.  i see other people that have fallen for this scam.  Wnat to make sure this stops. They are preying on people that just want to work and earn money honestly.
