On 24 Jun 12 I paid $2.95 for information concerning becoming a secret shopper. On 2 Jul 12 I received a letter accepting me as a secret shopper along with a check for 41998.79. I was suspious but to my bank and they refused to deposit it, telling me to investigate it more because they believed it was a scam. I went home an put the address in my search engine and discover it was an old townhome for sale in NY. I also discovered on RIPOFF.com that I wasn't the only one. They required us to take out most of the money once the bank excepted the check and wire the money back to them via western union. I still have their letter and check. However today I looked at my bank account and they had taken 49.95 from my account. They did not have my permission to taken anymore than the $2.95 from my account. When I called TWICE the phone number listed on my online statement and TWICE I was put on hold and then hungup on. I probably will never see my money again but if this complaint stops them srom stealing from someone else then I will be happy.
The address on the letter is 152-31 134 Ave., Jamaica N.Y. The lady on the phone told me are in Telavi. The phone number I called them on is 888-279-0637.
