Global Modular I received a letter in the mail telling me to deposit the check enclosed into my bank account. In turn when the check clears I was to keep $350 for my pay & use the rest for being a secret shopper. Well the check was drawn on PNC bank. I was a little suspicious so I went to the local PNC, next thing I know the police where there because it was a forged check! Luckily I had the letter that I received with me, because I could have gotten in a lot of trouble had I deposited it as stated on the letter. Their is a real company in New Jersey but they are not affiliated with this scam. Internet
