I signed up as a secret shopper through what I thought was a legitimate source. Presence Quality Control sent me by Fed Ex a money order for $955. To test the service of my bank and the local Western Union location. I was to cash the money order and take 10% as comission. Well, that went fine and the money order seemed fine. Then I was Fed Exed a second package two days later with instructions to cash 3 of the $955 money orders and submit via Western Union to test their service. I deposited the money to wait a day for it to clear the bank and then withdrew the monies to send them. The contact person Fred Cooper, Accountant General confirmed that both assignments went fine, but Tuesday, July 24th, one of the $955 amounts bounced, then the other 3 bounced on Thursday July 26th. Go figure, I got another mystery shop package with 5 $955 money orders. I kept getting text messages and calls to get the "results" of the test. Now I am out $3910 with lost money and the bank fees. I was looking for some extra money and was burned really bad because it looked like mystery shopping. The money is now gone, wired to some probably fake names in Haiti.
