I respponded to an ad to mystery shop Ikea. I received a letter containing a check for $2975. I am suppose to put in my checking account, call a number and get an address Then I go to Western Union or Moneygram and wire $2200 from my checking account. I get a $500 salary amd $100 for shopping at Wal-mart, Costco, Home Depot. Then I fill out a eveluation form. Of course in 10 days the bank will call me and tell the check is no good and I would be out the money. The check is on Beneficial a memeber of the HSBC Group. You only have 5 days to complete this so you would have wired the money before you knew the check was no good. Watch out.
