Found the add on craigslist advertising that the company was looking for extra secret shoppers. The pay was great and the ad even provided a website (non existent). The above mentioned Micheal Gibson sent an e-mail saying that the jobs were still available and to send in a list of information (Full name, contact address, city, state, zip code, telephone and cell number, age, sex, occupation, e-mail, and nationality), it didn't have the previous e-mail I had sent so I figured it was another agency I had applied to. There were no forms or a directing website but I was blinded by the thought of money and believed the information was no different then sending a letter. The most suspicious thing though was that I got an e-mail informing me that I had a job and that it would pay at a base price of $250 but all I had to do was wire money to an account at Western Union and judge the service. After recieving this e-mail I became very suspicious and started looking for more information on the company. I found a non existent website, a shotty looking website, and only a craigslist returned ad from when I googled the whole thing. I immediately stopped what I was doing but I may have been to late. My warning to others is to always do research and stay organized in the persons you deal with.
