I am the person named in this report and had nothing to do with the secret shopper scam. I came home from work one evening and found a bunch of packages marked "return to sender" in my mailbox. The sender had used my address as the return address. When I opened the materials, it was evident right away that this was a scam, complete with fake checks made out for large sums of money. I immediately went to the police and filed a report.
According to the police, the senders of these mail scams will frequently access databases (spokeo,etc) and randomly select a name and address to use for their scam. I, unfortunately, was the unlucky one. I asked the police to patrol frequently, and made sure to keep my doors locked, as I obviously feared that someone who fell for the scam and felt cheated out of money might come to my house very angry. Needless to say this was an unpleasant and scary experience for me.
