American Consumer Opinion Customer Evaluation Fraudulant Western Union Scam Secret Shopper New York, New York

Wife gets a letter and a check in the mail for a secret shopper program that her friend is involved in.  They send you a check for $2490, you do some shopping and Wire them $1900 back (red flag)

When you research company, they look legit, but when I look at check and research bank, all information is correct except zip code.  I call the bank using the web provided phone number and they validate that the check is a fraud.

New fraud out there without a lot of information on it, hope this helps stop some people from getting ripped off of $1900 because your check will never clear and you will be stuck with the Western Union Bill.
