Same thing happened to me....two years later! Texas letterhead, no return address, Canada postmark...quick google search confirmed a scam. I really wanted the free trip to Macy's!

I received a check in the mail today along with a letter describing how this 'company' would like me to be a secret shopper. I was to spend $200 at Wal-Mart, and then to use the moneygram service inside Wal-Mart to wire $2900 to a person of my choice. Please DO NOT DO THIS!!!!

I knew it was fishy when I saw the only contact number here is for Quebec, Canada, and all the other 'company' information is for the united states.

Please don't be fooled!!! I called the Wachovia Bank which is on the check, and they determined the check was fraudulent.

I received a check from this Am. Consumer Opinion CO. for 2998.50. They wanted me to be a mystery shopper. I was to pay myself 75.00 per hr for 2hrs, take 200. spend at one of my assigned retail locations to spend on what I want, and wire them 2,508.50 back . I figured it wasn't right when the money did not add up. There was still 140. that I was not told to do anything with. I realized it was a scam. I hope other people realize this before they're had.
