I recieved this letter in the mail from Northwest Alternative Job Services informing me that based on a previous survey ( which i hadn't taken)that I ws now to be a secret shopper.I was also advised to call NANCY LAMBERT at 1-289 892-3265.This person is an alleged account manager.The letter also told me that as a secret shopper I would be paid $600 dollars.With the letter was also a check worth $2,960 dollars.$600 was mine $1,990 was to be transfered $140 was a transmission fee and $230 for "mystery shopping".So I did some searching.
First the address:Northwest Alternative Job Services does not come up in a google search as a full buisness name.The street address:14 North Long Street,Williamsville, NY 14221 belongs to this company:

Plastic Bottles Inc

14 N Long St

Williamsville, NY 14221-5312

(716) 631-1616

The phone number 1-289-892-3265 is here
Location: Ajax-Pickering, On, ON in Canada

so as you can see the address nor the phone number matches anything stated in the letter.

I didn't call any of the numbers listed in the letter as it was late at night when I opened my mail.Based on common sense when you search a buisness name it should come up as one name not fragmented and highlighted search words as it did.And also the address and phone number should match as well.In this case neither matched.This is scam and nothing more.I would adivse anyone who gets this type of letter in the mail to NOT CASH the check but show your local post master and alert them to this type of scamming.And secondly inform the F.B.I. of this goings on.So thats my take on it.I hope I helped someone.If you wish to contact me you may do at [email protected] to arrange some type of effort to get this stopped or to compare letters and notes.Thank you and be carefull out there.
