He sent and email about mystery shopper in my area.. I responded with my mailing address and phone number and said I would be sent details on the job. I received and email and a text message today saying I needed to look for my first assignment in the mail today. When I opened it there was a check for $2815.60 and said I should deposit it and wait 24hrs for funds to be avaliable. Then I was to follow the mystery shopper instructions: shop at Wal Mart, buy things I would use. I was then to use Western Union to wire the rest minus the transfer fees and my payment of $200 and $50 for what I purchased. I am to email him the report on my shopping expierience and answer a few qustions. I was to email him the transfer number from western union.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
