Hi,
Invitation to become a secret shopper consistently came up. Decided to try it and was contacted by e-mail and phone by Mr. David Sandton. I received the assignments and a fake First Independent Bank Cashier's Check in the amount of 2,860.00. I was to evaluate two Western Union sites near me. I cashed the check and made two transfers in the amount of 1,230 (which included the fees). My pay was 400.00. Mr. Sandton called and e-mail often to make sure the assignment was moving along well and fast. He wanted everything done in one day. I submitted a report for each site and sent a canned copy of the receipts. The first receiver was Candee Martin, Huntington Beach, CA 92649. She was to pick up both transfers. Early the next morning, 12/19 Mr. Sandton called and said Candee Martin could not pick up the first transfer and I needed to divert it to a Christopher Gray, 2515 Finch St., Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70807. Later he called again and said Candee was ill and had to have a second person pick up the transfer. The second transfer went to Todd William Key, west 4th Street, Fredrick, MD. The bad news came around 10:00 from my credit union that the check was a fraud (no good). I was devastated. I looked on line and Secret Shopper was there with full information, so I thought it was legitimate. I've learned a valuable lesson and I want them stopped.
Additional numbers Mr, Sandton called me from, 662-631-4309 and 347-746-3094. I have a copy of the check, phone calls and e-mails.
Please let me know what I need to do next.
Thank you,
Katherine Brown:-)
