Total money lost $2,400
Type of a scam Other
I signed up for secret shopping and they emailed me. I got a priority envelope in the mail and it came with this letter and a cashiers check. I cashed it and then went to two different Walmart’s. I got the five of the six gift cards and I followed the instructions in the letter. I scratched the silver ash off and I took pictures of the front and back. The next day I checked the balances and three of the five gift cards were zeroed out. The other two still have a $400 balance for now. I will not buy the last one.

Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
Received FAKE check for $2420 on Penn East Federal Credit Union. Was told to keep $420 as my pay and buy Walmart gift cards with rest. Then send pictures of all cards/numbers and my survey on how the “secret shopping” went.
