On 3/29 I received an e-mail to sign up to become a mystery shopper. I thought it was from a creditable mystery shopper agent since I had signed up to become a mystery shopper on the internet some time ago. It was not. The e-mail was from a Louis Alberto of mshopinc. So I signed up. Then on 5/16 I was notified of my duties as a mystery shopper and the check would arrive soon in the mail. I was instructed to purchase an item at Wal Mart for $100 keep the item and $200 for the purchase of the item. Ok that sounded fine. Then I was instructed to send the rest of the money Western Union to a Wendy Bullers at La Farge, WI 54639 USA. So then on 5/18 I was called on my cell phone from a person who did not speak very good english that he was calling for Mr. Alberto and wanted to know if I had received the check yet. I said no. Then on 5/21 I received another e-mail from Louis Alberto wanting to know if I had received the check I responed back No. So then on 5/21 in the afternoon I received a check from Credit Union of Southern California in Whitter, CA 90608 for $7,300.00, from David Walton. I e-mailed the bank and wanted to know if the check was a good cashier's check and they e-mailed me back NO. So I proceeded to e-mail the Idaho State police (I don't know if they got the e-mail or if they did anything about the information I e-mailed them). I immediately e-mailed Louis Alberto and let him know I knew this was a rip off and I was reporting him. I never received an e-mail back or a call from louis Alberto again. So please all beware of anyone posing as a Mystery Shopper agent. Louis Alberto, Luis Gomez, David Walton or Wendy Bullers. Beware!!!
