Complaint Review: Premier Service Shopping Inc. - Internet Internet

RECEIVED A LETTER THAT INCLUDED A CHECK FOR THE AMOUNT OF $3,750.00 AND A CUSTOMER SERVICE EVALUATION FORM (CSEF). THE LETTER WAS TO INFORM ME THAT BASED ON A PREVIOUS SURVEY BY THEIR AFFILIATE CONSUMER SURVEY SPECIALIST I INDICATED THAT I WAS INTERSTED IN ADDITIONAL INCOME ON A PART-TIME BASIS I HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN A PAID CONSUMER RESEARCH PROGRAM KNOWN AS "SECRET SHOPPING". AS ONE OF THE PEOPLE SELECTED TO REPRESENT THEIR FIRM, I WILL BE ACTING AS A CUSTOMER SERVICE EVALUATOR OF SELECTED COMPANIES IN MY AREA. THIS CAMPAIGN IS AN EXCELLENT MEANS OF EARNING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS WEEKLY!

THEN COMPANY CONTINUES ON THE NEXT COUPLE OF PARAGRAPHS EXPLAINING THE 'SECRET SHOPPING" EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY WITH THE FIRM. AND HOW THIS SERVICE IS PROVIED ALL OVER NORTH AMERICA. HOW I WAS SELECTED AMONG 58,000 PEOPLE WHO RESPONDED TO THE SURVEY.

NOW FOR THE TRUE SCAM.......THEY ARE SO CALLED DOING RESEARCH PROJECT FOR MONEYGRAM, THE OBJECTIVE FOR THE FIRST ASSIGNMENT IS TO EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS AND EFFICIENCY OF THE PAYMENT SYSTEM. THEY WANTED ME TO KNOW THAT ANY MONEYGRAM STORE IN MY AREA WHICH BY THE WAY THEY ARE ALSO AVAILABLE AT ANY WALMART LOCATION..........I'M SUPPOSE TO BE ON THE D.L. (DOWN LOW OR UNCOVER) AND PAY ATTENTION THEIR PAY PROCESSING SYSTEM. I'M SUPPOSE TO ACT LIKE A REGULAR CUSTOMER TRYING TO SEND SOME MONEY TO RELATIVE AT ANOTHER MONEYGRAM.

SUPPOSEDLY THE MONEYGRAM ON THE RECEIVING SIDE HAS 'POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE'.

I WILL BE COMPENSATED $350 FLAT WAGE FOR MY TIME AND TRAVEL EXPENSES. MY SECOND ASSIGNMENT WOULD BE AT A FAST-FOOD LOCATION WHICH WOULD BE ASSIGNED BY MY COORDINATOR. ALSO, THE LETTER ENDS BY TELLING THAT THE FUNDS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE ASSISGNMENT ARE ENCLOSED IN THIS LETTER......(THIS IS THE FAKE CASHIER'S CHECK). AND I'M TOLD THAT I NEED TO CONTACT MR.DAVID CAMPELL 'IMMEDIATLEY UPON RECEIPT OF THIS LETTER AT (416)554-5014 TO CONFIRM I RECEIVED THE LETTER AND THE CHECK. MR. CAMPBELL IS SUPPOSE TO GIVE ME FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS NEEDED TO CARRY OUT THE 'ASSIGNMENT'. ALSO, SO THEY CAN RELEASE THE ENCLOSE CHECK FOR PAYMENT. NOTE: THIS LETTER STATES ITS 'TIME-SENSITIVE AND MUST BE COMPLETED WITHIN 24HRS OF RECEIPT OF THIS PACKAGE'.

NOW I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE LETTER....

FIRST.... THE COMPANY SENDS ME A 'CASHIER'S CHECK' FOR A SURVEY I NEVER TOOK.

SECOND... THE COMPANY SENDS THE CHECK WITH MY FIRST AND LAST NAME ON IT BUT THE LETTER BEGINS WITH 'DEAR SHOPPER' AND NOT MY NAME, (I THOUGHT THE POSITION WAS FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE EVALUATOR NOT SHOPPER, JUST SAYING)

THIRD....THE FLAT $350 FLAT WAGE...OKAY IT HAS BEEN ALONG TIME SINCE I'VE DONE MATH BUT THEY WANT ME TAKE MY $350 OUT OF THE $3,750... THIS MEANS THAT I HAVE TO SEND MY UNKNOWN RELATIVE $3,400...(I WAS WONDERING WHY CAN'T KEEP THE $3,400 AND SEND THIS UNKNOW RELATIVE $350..IT'S AN EVALUATION, RIGHT? COMPANY JUST NEEDS TO KNOW "EFFECTIVENESS AND EFFICIENCY OF THE PAYMENT SYSTEM OR THE PROCESS...THEY DON'T NEED ALL THAT MONEY JUST TO FIGURE THAT OUT...I THINK $350 WILL DO)

FOURTH..... THE CHECK HAS A BANK NAME, SUN TRUST, WHICH CONTAINS NO CONTACT INFORMATION TO VERIFY THE CHECK IS GOOD OR BAD; THERE IS NOT ADDRESS, NOT PHONE NUMBER TO THE BANK; THE VOID OVER IS FOR THE EXACT AMOUNT OF $3,750 (I KNOW THAT PHONE NUMBER MEANS LITTLE BECAUSE IT COULD LEAD ME RIGHT TO MR. CAMPBELL OR REAL CON ARTIST....I TOOK IT ONE STEP FURTHER AND WENT TO THE BACK'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE)

FIFTH......THE CHECK IS NOT GUARANEETED BY THE FDIC. LOGO IS NOT WHERE ON THE CHECK.

SIXTH.....THE LETTER STATED THAT ONCE I CALL THAT ONCE I CALL THE COORDINATOR I WILL RECEIVE INSTRUCTIONS NEEDED TO CARRY OUT MY ASSIGNMENT.....(THE LETTER ALREADY GAVE ME INSTRUCTIONS ON THE FIRST ASSIGNMENT....I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OTHER ASSIGNMENTS.....THE SECOND ASSIGNMENT THAT THEY BRIEFLY MENTIONED.)
