NOVA CO INC Mystery Shopping, Market Research, Training & Cousulting WESTOWN New York
I was sent a check for 3,780.00 as response to an on-line survey interest in aditional income.
Everything seemed to be on the up and up, but what caught my eye was that the letter was from a marketing group in New York and the Check was from a gas and electric company in Baltimore, Maryland. I tried to google the marketing company (NOVA CO INC) but couldn't find anything on them.Then I googled the gas and electric company and found they are liget. I tried to contact them but they were closed since it was a Saturday.
