The shopping facts inc. Company sent me a cashier check for 4998.00 with 2 sheets of paper. 1 was telling me I was pre selected to become a mystery shopper and that i had to call a number (905-407-3277 ext 100) before i can go cash the check. The other was what they call a CSET (customer dervices evaluatin tool) I was to make 4 copied of it.
So I call the number and they told me that I need to deposit the check into my account and once im able 2 withdraw the money I had 2 call them to get the store that i would have to mystery shop. Well by me not having a bank account I asked them if i could go cash the check at a check cashing place. They said no i had 2 have a bank acount or get someone with a bank account and endorse the check to them.
Well i decide to call my mom and ask for her opinion. She told me to look up the company and do some research before take any action. So i looked the bank up it is a real bank i call the number on the check for the bank and a guy told me the same thing from when i call he 905 number. I just felt some thing wasn't right so i went back to the bank website and got there contact information and the phone numbers didnt match. So i decide to look the company up on the internet and found out they was a fraud any they have done this to many of people. Good thing i dont have a bank account and i did some research before i tried to cash this check. Im glad i didnt go to a check cashing place because they take u to jail for things like that out here
