Complaint / Review
Ray Benzim Consumer Research Agency
Beware - this is a scam! Quebec

We recently recieved a letter in the mail with a check for $3950.00 stating that we had been selected to participate in a "consumer protection program" as a secret shopper for our area. We (my husband and I) were told it was paid, part-time research, and we would be evaluating several companies listed under the following categories:
A - Staples, Circuit City, Home Depot, Office Depot, k-Mart, and Wal-mart
B - Moneygram

We were given instructions as follows:
"The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of these well known outlet and payment systems in regards to consumer rights and protections. The first task is to purchase anything of your choice from any of the listed category A outlets and return the item back within 30 minutes of the original purchase... After the returns pruchase and take home a different item of your choice from the same outlet.

Finally, use Moneygram, sending the sum stipulated below ($3430.00) to the accounts personnel as would be directed by the representative assigned to your file."
We were told to contact Daniel Reed at 514-561-6777. After our initial contact we were unable to reach him again.
The breakdown of expenditures:
1. Part time payment: $270.00
2. Money gram to be transferred: $3430.00
3. Funds needed for shopping: $100.00
4. Traveling fund: $30.00
5. Transferring Fees: $120.00
The letter was signed Ray Benzim (Director of Operations CRA). If you recieve a letter like this one, DO NOT CASH THE CHECK! Upon further investgation, we realized this was a scam and these people need to be caught! We do not want any more families or corporations to fall victim to these outrageous internet scams!
