Control Products Corporation, Consumer Research Group secret shopping scam Lookout Mountain Tennessee
I received a check in the mail with a letter in regards to a secret shopping assignment by consumer research group. The first red flag was that I had not applied for any assignments. The second was the name on the letter (Consumer Research Group, CRG) did not match the name on the check (Control Products Corporation). The third was the envelope was mailed with a Canadian stamp but the address was listed in Lookout Mountain, Tennessee on the letter and Grand Prairie, Texas.
The contact information for my "assignment" is Rosanne Cash at 705-770-3842. The assignment listed a purchase at Burger King and Walmart and money transfers through Western Union and Money Gram. Also enclosed was a CSET (Customer Service Evalutaion Tool) for me to fill out. Following which I should fax it and all applicable receipts to 877-570-2827 (which I believe to be at a UPS office). I was also given a number for "verification of funds" as 250-797-1647. Check is printed on docugaurd check paper and is very authentic, meets all "security feature" tests.
I worked for a bank and know the dangers of any one requestiong money to be transferred, so I did not and do not plan on depositing the check, but I wanted to put the info out for anyone else who may have received this or something similar.

The checks given out by this company may look real but they are counterfeit checks. I was told this by some at a bank that I knew. Everyone beware of this company. This is a true rip-off!!!!!
