Yeah, this is a scam, and a very good one. You keep and deposit this check and either it will be no good and you'll be out the money, or they expect you to send it back to them. Since this was unsolicited mail, you are not obligated to do a thing but shred it and throw it away, which you should do, ASAP!

scam. think of approximately it you notice greater advertisements for secret purchasers than the different activity interior the U. S.. Do you think of there are greater secret purchasers than say food market, rapid foodstuff, or retail shop workers? the secret shopper element is enjoying on greed, ie you gets a commission for doing an common activity, and psychology, you gets a commission for procuring issues. real sturdy activity for a lazy individual who's a compulsive shopper. i'm specific there are some valid procuring assessment amenities, yet they are unlikely to post some random advert on the internet and get hundreds of goofy responses. a>

Yes this is a scam. Anything that is too good to be true usually is. Shred it all up and throw it away!

if you didn't ask for this package, don't trust it at all...too many scams out there. they should be more upfront with their information, and if they were legit, they'd advertise and get folks right in the same city as them to work for them.
