Contacted me by email after I posted a review on line about a breeder I have used in the past. Telling me my review o the breeder was awesome and how would I like to be a secret shopper. I said yes as they offered me $350.00 per assignment. I was required to provide my date of birth , telephone number and address. Yesterday I received via US Postal Service and overnight envelope that contained a check made out to me in the amount of $2,975.00. Instruction were to deposit the check immediately Wait 24-48 hours for funds to become available sent a text that deposit was made. Upon availability of funds proceed to Apple store and purchase 3 IPhones unlocked, contract free and no sim card. Mail the IPhones to a quality control officer immediately after I complete the task. After deducting the sending cost keep the left over money in an envelope or buy a blank money order and send with IPhones. To obtain an address I am to send a text that will reply with an address. Below is there expenditure breakdown:

I-Phone (3) = $2170

My Salary = $300.00

Tax and Shipping = $305.00

Left Over = $200.00

I find this be complete scam. They want me to deposit the check purchase the products all within 24-48 hours. It will appear the check cleared my bank and funds will be available but after a week or so more than likely the check will bounce and I will be left with all fees of fake check. Investigated with Federal Trade Commission and they advised "Never to Deposit A Check From Someone You Do Not Know" and "Do Not Wire Funds"

If you refer to the website of research company it appears to be a valid company and BBB gives them an A+ rating. After much investigation I find this is nothing more than a scam.
