It amused me so I played along got the check, same instructions, $2, 550.00. When I received th SMS, replied my bank had a 21 day hold before releasing funds. Never heard from them again! My question is they are using the USPS, doesn't that constitute mail fraud ? Isn't it illegal use the USPS to fraudulently steal from US residents ??? Why can't the feds investigate and track these a____holes and arrest them?? I know it doesn't stop the scams, it does however stop these individual's....Don't figure, they'll spend year's investigating medical marijuana shops, but a bu nch of thieves. Who knew???
Received a text from this number and the person identified himself as David Skelton from Mystery Shoppers.
Have also received emails from this person. I'm leary and will keep you posted on the progress
got an email from a Stanley Smith offering a secret shopper job with this # on it. He says payment is on the way & the job is to go to Wal-Mart & wire money using Western Union. I thought it was a scam so I found this site & want to warn others.
