Visionquest Monitoring & Research Group - Mystery Shopping - Customer Surveys - Market Intelligence Received Letter with check from Wal-Mart 401k Profit Sharing Plan $3885.00 Atlanta Georgia
This letter looks the same as some of the others.. the name Janes F. Shelly as Human Resources Director popped up on another one of these reports as well. You are to cash the check and then let them know that you deposited it so they can release the funds, thats fishy. 300 for me, 200 to spend and a store or hotel, 165 for wire transfer fee and 3220 to wire.
The envelope has a return address: V.M.R.G. Station A PO Box 1747 Laval QC H7W 5K2
I was a little skeptic because of the check. The check is from Wal-Mart Profit Sharing and 401K Plan, Merrill Lynch Trust Company

A Scam...

This is just another form of a scam that has been going around for a while. The foreign return address is the first clue. Second, anytime someone wants you to cash a check and send money back to them, it's a scam. Third, that is not the way Mystery Shops work. You don't ever get paid up-front. You have to spend the money and then are reimbursed. I sure hope you didn't cash the check.
