Mystery shopping, Market research, Secuities, Training & Consulting Dantannas llc, or s.m.p. co. Of Georgia n Texas respectively. Fraudulent check under supposed mystery shopper employer Sandysprings Georgia

 I received a letter claiming I'dbeen chosen based on a survey I'd expressed interest in mystery shopping. It includes a check in the amount of $3,991.18. A breakdown of how to use it was included. 450 was my trial pay, 100 to be used at one of the stores listed, 280 was earmarked as a fee, to pay for western union or money gram services, where the remaining balance of$3,161.18 was too be sent to "the mystery shoppers" designated by co ordinator ( put like that) Charles Anderson. I attempted to turn in the check and was told it was fraudulent at my bank. Thank goodness they'd seen similar scams before. Then today I received another letter and check. This time the letter was from Georgia instead of Texas. But the mystery shoppers spiel was the same. Same secondary Canadian address. But instead of smp in Texas the check was from Dantannas in Georgia. Turns out that company is a restaurant. I doubt they even have an account with this state bank n trust anymore than smp had a tdbank account. Or if they do, they didn't issue these checks.
