I received a message from a former coworker saying she was doing secret shopping and surveys. Said she earns an extra $500/mo. Said to send my address and email address to Douglas Michael Dusheck. I did reply and today received a Priority Mail envelope with a check for $2,870 asking me to cash it and keep $400 for my first assignment salary.
Asked me to take it to my closest Walmart and send a Money Gram for $2,470
to:
Adriel Carrion Fonseca
441 Carr. 831
Bayamon, Puerto Rico 00956
It gives instructions on the info I should gather from the transaction at Walmart for the Money Gram, including the 8 digit reference number.
Also says that I should email my survey reports to [email protected]
I've personally experienced the same type of scam a few years ago when I was unemployed and wanted me to do basically the same type of transaction and then receive instructions on what the job offer entailed that they were going to train me to work from home for them.
If it sounds too good to be true - it probably is.
Do not fall for this scam or anything similar.
