AIS Market Research, Inc. Dennis Beckett, Timothy Martin They sent me a priority letter and a cashiers check made out to ME for $1680; claiming this was a training exercise to become a secret shopper. They told me in the enclosed letter to CASH or DEPOSIT the check into MY bank. Then take out $1480 for the "mystery shopping project". The extra $200 is what they claim your commission is. I deposited first check because I was unknown and fool and earlier money was available and I got the money on same day but after four days now check is on hold and they sent me a check again but this time they delivered it on another address so I was not able to deposit and then first check report came out to me... I called the bank listed on the top and they informed me this is a FRAUD scam and a FRAUDULENT check. They wanted me to use Moneygram to transfer $1350 to a Timothy Martin in LA, California. This a complete scam; when I called the bank they told me the check number didn't exist or the account. If I would have deposited it in my account, I would have had overdraft fees and been in trouble for depositing a fraudulent check. DO NOT CASH OR DEPOSIT THIS CHECK.  I am thankful I was smart enough to call the Ascend Federal Credit Union where the check was drawn from and my bank in AL is researching the fraud check I gave them so maybe they can help put a stop to this.  Please everyone watch out for these scam artists!! New York New York

AIS Market Research, Inc. is supposedly a secret/mystery shopper company that finds you over the Internet. They then sent me a UPS package containing a cashiers check made out to ME from Ascend Federal Credit Union in TN for the $1680.00. They then wanted me to cash or deposit the check into my account and then withdraw $1480, then use Moneygram at Walmart to send $1350 to someone named Timothy Martin in California. I called the bank in TN and they informed me the check was a FRAUDULENT!! This company makes money from stealing from people like you and me. I hope they get sued!! What they are doing is illegal and they need to get punished legally for it. If anyone is interested in a class action lawsuit, goggle me and find my email address. Please everyone watch out for this company! They are SCAM ARTISTS!! AIS Market Reserach Inc. is a company that SCAMS people out of their hard earned money! DO NOT cash or deposit any check from this company!

#1 UPDATE Employee

AIS Market Research, Inc. is not involved with this scam.

AUTHOR: Alison - ()

POSTED: Thursday, June 12, 2014

AIS Market Research, Inc. is not involved in this scam and has no affiliation with Dennis Beckett, Timothy Martin, or any others involved in this scam. We are just as much a victim as those being targeted. We are a legitimate market research firm located in (and only in) Fresno, Ca. 

If you would like more information regarding our company please visit our website www.aismarketres.com. We have been in business for 50 years and have a great reputation with our clients and research respondents. If you are intersted in participating in paid market resesarch you can join our database through our website to be considered for any upcoming projects.

It may also benefit you to know that a research company will never ask you for money back when you are being offered a paid incentive. The object of a paid research project is to obtain consumer opinions, the company requesting these opinions is paying the respondent, not requesting money in return.

This is an unfortunate situation and I am sorry that you are a victim, however we are a victim as well and slandering our business name is unethical. Please do your own research before attempting to ruin an innocent company's reputation.
