Secret-Shopper Scam - Shopper-WorkAtHome

The Secret-Shopper email message below: "Shopper-WorkAtHome," is a scam.

Also, the victim may be asked to take part in surveys or other promotional services. But, the counterfeit check will bounce and the victim who cashes the check will be held responsible for the money lost in the transaction and any additional fees imposed by his or her bank. They may even get arrested for fraud.
