 I was contacted by MTC Volvo,INc. by mail.  A letter stating they were a paid Shoppers program, for corporations such as Walmart, Home Depot, Office Depot, Kroger, Kmart, Costco, Best Buy, Sears, Rite Aid, and Best Buy. It stated that this program was identified for me thru a affiliate Consumer Survey Specialists, which specializes in additional income opportunities on a part time basis.

A check was enclosed in the amount of $1989.30.  I was given instructions in the letter of three assignments that would need to complete for this "mystery" shopper program. 

I was told to deposit check and wait until funds are available before withdrawing the said amount for the above assignments.  I deposited check and waited 3 days before withdrawing.

I was told to keep $350 for my participation pay for the first week.  The other amount was to be used for the following assignent:

Assignment 1: Send $965 to a Nichols Smith in Madrid, Madrid, Spain in Money in Minutes through western union, and also send $491 to a Dixon Smith in Atlanta, Georgia thru Moneygram for a 10 minute pickup.

Assignment 2:  Take leftover money $78.50 go to Walmart, HomeDepot, or Costco and buy merchandise.  The merchandise bought was mine to keep. 

For both assignments, I was given a 12-24 hour window to complete assignment, fill out evaluation forms and email all documentation (receipts, paperwork) to the following:  [email protected] or Fax: (302) 689-3960.

Letter stated that evaluation report was time sensitive; receipts must be submitted immediately after doing assignment to avoid disqualification.

I completed both assigments, and emailed all documents to above email address within the time perimeters. 

Wham!! Five days later, my bank account was charged backed the total amount of $1989.30. 

Devasted!  Bank account in the huge negative.  I called the number of the company to find out what happened.  Only get a voice recording and can leave a voicemail.  I left six voicemails. Still have not received a call.  Also, I emailed the company,no response.

Their website is still active.  Do not know what to do.  I have been ripped off.

To sign into the website you must have an user id an password they give you.  I have this information.

The letter is signed by a Daniels Simmons, Director of Operations.

What can be done about this?

 I Just Recieved the same letter in the mail October 21st and told me to do exactly what you put in details about the check and the assignments. I went to the bank yesterday to deposit the check and they wouldnt do it because they believed it was a scam and said that i would get in a lot of trouble for it. they said if they did it it'll go through but then come back as FRAUD so they took the letter and the check so that i wouldnt get into any trouble anywhere else with it. They also called the company, and it was just a recorded system. so this is definitely a scam and I'm very sorry this happened to you and I'am so happy my bank didnt let me go through with it.
