Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order

The scam started with an email from a LInkedIN connection. Someone with a very prestigious profile is saying that they are personally participated in this Mystery Shop for Beta Research. If you look up Beta Research you will find that they do in fact do consumer studies for clients.

Next they send you an "approval" email telling you that the stores that want you to shop will be sent to you in the mail. They send you your "shoppers" packet and a check for $2950. You are to deposit the check at your bank and wait for the funds to clear. My assignment was with Apple and I was to purchase 4 phones at $650/ea totaling $2596. The remainder was my salary.

Once the shop is complete you are to txt them: 214-814-6732 and email: [email protected]

You will be arrested when you go to the bank with this bogus check! This is a SCAM!!!!!
