I was contacted by a "Daniel Wells" to complete a survey with western union where I would receive $200 in compensation. It is a complete SCAM!!!!! Here were my instructions upon receiving the check in the mail:
The check delivered by USPS includes both compensation and funds for this survey, follow the below instructions to complete the survey.
1. Have the received check cashed at your bank.
2. Deduct your compensation of $200 after cashing the check.
3. Bring the rest of the funds after deduction of your compensation to the nearest western union outlet in your area and have it transferred to the below information using their Money in Minutes service: Western union will charge a service fee for using their service, deduct $180 for the charges from the leftover cash before transferring the rest to the below information.
Name: Allpey Miunahain
Destination: 801 W Riverside Ave | Spokane | WA 99201
While making the transfer observe the following: Service time, customer service professionalism and environment safety during the transfer process. Under no circumstance should the western union agent(s) know this evaluation is being carried out on them. Email me with the following information as soon as the transfer is completed:
Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN):
Transaction Charges:
Western Union Location Surveyed:
A questionnaire regarding your overall experience with western union will be emailed to you after we receive the transfer information.
Thank you and get back to me as soon as the survey is completed today.
Sincerely,
