Received a letter and cheque in mail yesterday - letter supposedly from a very prominent company - odd that this company would be doing any kind of mystery shopper recruitment. That alone was enough to set off alarm bells. Also, sending money through Western Union to 2 individuals in the US (Canadian branch of Company) - really? I did call one of the numbers listed to validate the cheque and, of course, got a recording that the recipient was temporarily unavailable. I did not actually receive a call - the number to call to validate cheque was 226-345-0121.

thanks for that info - my daughter also received letter and cheque to be deposited - wati til clears - spend 100 keep 450 and sent balance by western union I also warned her of scams per internet postings - red flag
this will help.

THIS NUMBER IS FROM THE SCAMMERS LINDA THOMPSON AND STANELY PETERSON. THEY HAVE MANY CELL PHONE #'S THAT THEY CONSTANTLY CHANGE TO CONTINUING SCAMMING PEOPLE. BE AWARE OF THIS NUMBER OR MANY MORE THAT I WILL LIST BELOW. YOU WILL GET A FAKE LETTER IN THE MAIL WITH A FAKE CHEQUE. IT WILL LOOK VERY REAL BUT IT IS FAKE. THE LETTER WILL STATE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN AS A MYSTERY SHOPPER FOR ASSIGNEMENTS AT WAL-MART,K-MART, HOMEDEPOT, JC PENNY, SEARS AND BEST BUY. THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO WIRE MONEY THROUGH WESTERN UNION OR MONEY GRAM TO THESE SCAM ARTISTS. THERE ARE MANY COMPANIES THAT HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH THIS SCAM. IF YOU RECIEVE THIS LETTER BE SURE TO CONTACT YOUR LOCAL POLICE TO REPORT IT. DO NOT LET THESE IDIOTS TRY TO SCAM YOU. I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE BANK TO GET THIS CHEQUE OBSERVED AS MY SISTER WORKS THERE. HERE IS MORE INFORMATION BELOW.
*THESE PEOPLE OWN A TRUCK COMPANY & CONSTANTLY MOVE FROM CITY TO CITY*. I HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATING THIS AND THEY HAVE MOVED FROM MANY PLACES SUCH AS MONTREAL, WINDSOR/KITCHENER/LONDON AND MANY OTHER LOCATIONS.

A MAN WHO POSES AS "STANELY PETERSON" HAS STOLEN THIS NAME FROM A DEASESED MAN. THERE ARE ALSO OTHER NAMES SUCH AS MORAN FINLEY AND MAUREEN.
