I recieved in the mail a letter saying I was getting my first secret shoppers assignment. In this letter is a 900.00 Money Order. Shawn Pickens tells me to Fill in the money order, take it to my bank to deposite and cash, deduct 200.00 dollars which is supposed to be my salary after cashing the money order for my assignment. However, he wants me to put in my FULL NAME and use my bank when cashing this thing. The thing that gets me is this, Shawn Pickens of San Francisco, Ca sends this to me in a plain envelope, with his address label on the envelope but after closer examination the post mark says it was sent from Albany, GA. When I send the remaining 680.00 I am told to send it to another person named Andrea Griffin in Miami, Florida. That makes three different states and two different people. I would love to have this checked out because it sounds to me like what would actually happen is in the end your bank account would be cleaned out of 900.00 and the only thing you would be left with would be the 20.00 purchase you made at WalMart and a report on WalMart and Western Union.

The emails you received were not from Secret Shopper, but rather were from a scammer, using information copied from our website to make their offer seem more legitimate.  We are sorry for the inconvenience you have experienced recently and are very troubled that our company name is being used in disreputable scams such as the one you described.

Here is some more info on Shawn Pickens, Pickens Solutions Inc, Secret Shopper Scam. As I also was a victim.
Shawn Pickens 380 Eddy Street San Fransisco CA. 94102  [email protected]
Andrea Griffin 222 Brickell Avenue, Suite 2200, Miami Florida 33131
Jessinta Suarez and Reeves Graham 1415 M. H. Del Pillar Street Manila, Manila Philippines 1000

I was a fool and went through with cashing the (Fake) Money Gram Money Order of $900.00 and doing the wal-mart review and western union transfer. And as I write this I stand to lose over $700.00, 680.00 from the transfer and other penalties that my bank charged me for the bad money order.

I wised up when I received my second assignment from Shawn "The Scammer" Pickens with four $900.00 Money Gram Money Orders and directions to send wire transfers to the two Philippines addresses as mentioned above, that's when I had my bank check out the money orders and sure enough they had been cashed out last year for different amounts, And that's when they informed me the first initial  money order was bad.

 Don't be fooled my friends have your bank check out them money orders before you cash them It will save you in the long run.
