This so called company is not real its fake and its taking advantage of alot of people they tell you everything has to be done by email and there is no phone contacts so be aware when you see this or if you get an email about secret shoppers position. after doing my research i found out they us a fake UPS tracking number and everything.
Then when i calle the money gram place to see if the money grams where real come to find out that the account number on both of them are the same and only different by one number and the person i spoke to said that its under investigation. I would really like to catch these people or person that is doing this and have them prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
