Scam is for "Mystery Shoppers". They take your general information and send you a "Priority Mail" envelope. The envelope contains specific instructions and a check for $1,378.00. They give you 24 hrs to cash the check, which is obviously fake, and keep $188, spend $50 at Walmart then send a Walmart Money Gram in the amount of $1000 to: Derek Shatzer Albany, New York.( I have seen other names on Snopes)

I received a mystery shopper “assignment” to evaluate Walmart 2 Walmart money service.i received a cashiers check (drawn on the First National Bank of Fremont in Fremont Nebraska) made out to me personally for 1378.00. I was to deposit and cash it. Take out my pay 278.00 and send the remaining cash 1100.00 to Johnson Belisario in Austin Texas. I was to send my “report” to the emails listed. Sounds pretty sketchy to me. Please verify. Thanks
