---Look, you want to hear about a scam??---I'm sure you've heard of a reputiple company called "Secret Shopper" well leave it up to the Canadians(no offense to actual canadians...just the scamming bast***s that live in Canada) to take something good and RUIN IT!
There is now a SCAM called "Secret Shoppers" with an S. They will ask you if you want to take part in a 'Customer Service Study". They'll send you a package containing your assignment(money gram @ wall-mart(not a typo)) tell you to cash a $2600 check into your personal acct, keep $300, and send them $2200.
Well the checks are COUNTERFEIT. THEY GET THEIR MONEY IN 15MINS. YOU ARE SCREWED FOR THE BAD CHECK(POSSIBLY FELONY IMPRISONMENT IN SOME STATES FOR YOU). And guess what. Because they are in CANADA the US Government will do didily squat because you are the scape goat and you will pay. Not them because the Mounties do not cooperate with extradition laws with the US. So you are out the money.
PLEASE DO NOT BE STUPID ENOUGH TO FALL INTO THIS TRAP. P.S. ya know that company, the real one, secret shopper Because of this scam they were forced to change their name to protect the respect of their business. JUST BE WARY OF ANYONE WHO WANTS YOU TO CASH ANYTHING, OFFERING YOU MONEY.

Anytime a company sends you a check for several thousand dollars with special instructions for cashing it, THAT IS A SCAM!! And, they are not only pulling this trick on you ... they are doing this so they can get your bank account and other personal information. Ever hear of identity theft?
As I stated before in previous posts ... if it is too good to be true, it IS.

With all of the information available, WHY would you take an assignment that required you to do this?
First, the company isn't based in US (Warning**Warning**Red Lights and Whistles**). Second, if the 'assignment' had been to check the customer service of moneygram (which by the way, I've never heard of), the amount would have been much smaller and you would have been reimbursed. And last, since when do you make $300 on one job? Most of us are lucky to pull down $7-$20 per assignment (on good days, with bonus' perhaps $30).
Sorry you got scammed, but short of that check jumping out of the envelope and slapping you in the face, the warning signs couldn't have been much clearer. Another good example of 'If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.'
