Type of a scam Employment
Completed a job posting on LinkedIn. Got a text from 754-216-3217 offering a mystery shopper job (what I applied for). Received a letter and fake cashiers check (verified with the bank it was allegedly issued from that it was not valid). Did not continue conversation on text after verifying it was a fake cashiers check.

Total money lost $998
Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
I was sent an application to become a secret shopper. The details seemed very legit. Assignments were sent, VERY official looking checks and instructions on what to do with the money.
