This may be a scam. The FTC warns about the secret shopper scam here http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/alerts/alt151.shtm and here http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre40.shtm If you fall for it, there are endless ways you can be screwed. One of the worst is they ask you to test Western Union wire services by sending you a check, you cash it at your bank and wire the money to them, and they can pick up your cash from anywhere in the world regardless of where you send it to if you give them the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) for the wire. The check is fake but it will take days for your bank to find out and in the meantime, your cash that you wire them will be in their hands (wires takes short hours to complete). Your account will be in the red when the check bounces and you may be prosecuted for passing a bad check. There are legit sites that you can sign up on to become a legit secret shopper but *NONE* of them pays $50/hour or $400/task as promised by some scams!
