Secret shopper scam

I'd like to think I wouldn't fall for something like this but I can see where a desperate person might. |

I've often wondered what those Mystery Shoppers were all about! I've seen those ads and been tempted to call. What woman would not love to get paid to shop??

Yeah, my sister received one of those scams a while back. Fortunately, she was told better before she even cashes the first one, so no debt on her. That scam was out of Canada too.
I also received a similar one last year. I received a letter saying that I had won some kind of lottery and I just needed to pay like $2700 in taxes and they'd send me back a few million. I called the phone number on the letter just to see what the jack@$$ would try to tell me. After I dropped the hint that I was on to him, he hung up quickly. Ironically, that scam was out of Canada too. Can you see the pattern going on here? What the h*** is up with Canada?!
