Re: Acceptance Letter for Secret Shopper
Received a check in the amount of $1,956.00 and 3 assignments. Was told to call 1-289-892-4056 my account manager Frank Armstrong before depositing the check and get further instructions. I spoke with account manager and was instructed to deposit the check and start the assignments. The first was to transfer funds from a Western Union Office in the amount of $866.00 plus the sending fees which came out to $62.00. The second assignment was to got to a second Western Union office and transfer $620.00 plus fees which came out to $50.00. Was told to send these Western Unions to Morley Banchs at Appleton Research Group, 15 Santa Monica CP 28045 Madrid, Spain. Then the last assignment was to spend $70.00 at a store which was on the list. It also stated that $350.00 was to be my salary for this training assignment. Then I was to fax all these receipts to Frank Armstrong at fax number 1-716-332-3421 which is their Administrative Office 1675 Broadway, New York, NY 10019 and then when all of this was done I was to call them at 1-289-892-4056. I tried to call but kept getting a recording that there was a high call volume and to call back. I went to my bank today to withdraw some of my money and was told that the check had bounced and the bank took all of my money and I still owe them because I did not have enough to cover their check. I was told by my bank when I deposited the check that it would clear in 3 days before I can get any money. I went back 3 days after the deposit and bank said check was cleared, now however today October 11 was told the check bounced. What can I do to get my money back. I am unemployed and have no money right now and that is why I took this mystery shopper job as it was the only job available in my area.
