Mystery Shopper

This scam is a variation of the work from home scams where you are sent checks by “customers”, and your job is to cash them, keep 10%, and forward the rest thru Western Union to the company. This is the same except, the premise is that you are a Mystery Shopper (although you don’t actually shop for anything…). These are usually short scams, but I like it because they have to spend money using FedEx or UPS to send the checks to you… My emails are in blue, his/hers are in black, my comments in red. Happy reading!

I don’t understand this – where is the shopping part???

I am supposed to be shopping and buying certain products, correct?

Please explain this.

Thomas


Good day

Yeap sorry for the mix up. You are to deduct $ 40 inside the $100 for the money gram fee because the fee i $60 to wire the remaining money .ok?You are to shop for anything you like and use it for your personal use and all we need is to give a report on customer service, quality of product, and cleanliness of the establishment.

I re-read the email – this is a Mystery Shopper program aimed at MoneyGram? Why do you need to send such a big check? Just send enough to pay me my commission and a small amount to send thru MoneyGram – that would be smarter, don’t you think? I mean, what’s to stop me with running off with your money? Just send me a check for $350.00 – I’ll keep $300.00 and send $40.00 through MoneyGram – that shouldn’t cost more than $10.00.

Let me know what you think.

Hey you filthy rotten thief…

Here’s what I know about 419 Scammers...

1) Their spelling and command of the English language is terrible, like yours.
2) They always want you to use Western Union or Moneygram - no respectable bank or business uses this except for you.
3) They are always stupid, smelly, savages from that cesspool of a continent Africa, like you are.
4) They pose as lawyers, bankers, and even Directors with the United Nations, like you.
5) They quote God and religion a lot even though they are going to Hell, like you are.
6) They claim to be getting back at the "white man" for injustices done to them, but the truth is that they will steal from anyone of any race, religion, creed, and color, like you would.
7) They often have sex with goats, monkeys, and their own parents, like you do.
8) They are the lowest form of life on the planet and have the intelligence of a 5-year old retarded child, like you do.
9) They strongly resemble gorillas but they smell even worse, like you do.
10) They are rooted in evil - everything bad in this world comes from Africa - AIDS, crime, war, disease, poverty, hunger, savages - all from Africa. True, we in the USA have our share of these problems too, but they all come from the savages that our forefathers unfortunately brought to this great nation.


No more replies to my email – I wonder why? Basically, once the mail (tracking) comes back with my phony address, the bait is pretty much over anyways.
