Mystery Shopping, what fun!  All I have to do is shop at a few selected stores (Wal-Mart, and JCPenney) and fill out a cheesy evaluation form!  All that and I can make $300 for 2 hours of work PLUS I get to keep the 200 work of items I buy from Wal-Mart and JC Penney.

Sounds great except the Western Union transaction!  Along with my "mystery shopping", I will have to send $1400 through Western Union.  Maybe its just me but that doesn't sound very legitimate! 

They aren't asking me to pay any money to get started, I actually get paid for my training.  Once I deposit the $1930.00 check into my account, I only have 72 hours to complete my shopping.  Just before the check BOUNCES! 

The check is issued from AVILA FARMS, INC, 5383 Ridgeview Dr. lp. N.E, Moses Lake, WA  98837.  That address is different from the one on the letterhead which is out of Ontario Canada. 

There are no email addresses or web sites listed on the letter anywhere.  I searched on google and was not able to find anything on this company, even when searching scams.
