Walmart Business Co WalMart Business BOGUS QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM AND CHECK FOR $1990.05 Bentonville Arkansas
Report Attachments
I received a check from Walmart Business with instructions to registerthe check online and then deposit.
After deposit was made, I was supposed to pull out $350 to complete 2 assignments as a "Consumer Service Evaluator". Check looks legit but would not clear through Wells Fargo with the reason" Confirmed Fraud". The check says Wachovia Bank, N.A., which is no longer a bank.
The phone number listed takes you to a recording and repeats the online instructions. You can't get in touch with anyone real.

"Scam for banking information?? "
This is very common scam. Since the check is fake, they would not be able to get your banking info.
One of the "assignments" would be for you to send an untraceable cash transfer (i.e. Western Union, GreenDot) to someone you've never heard of, before the bank idendifies the check as being bogus. They keep the cash and disappear. You get to pay the bank back.
The scam takes advantage of the fact that a) some people think that a company would really send a valid check worth thousands to someone they don't know. b) That being able to withdraw money on a deposited check means the check cleared (which is not the case).
