it sent me a check and wanted to know when i was going to cash it and send the rest to them i told them that i would not cash it because it was a fraud

I was sent a letter to be a mystery shopper. The letter had Manpower letterhead and had Canadian postage on the envelope and an enclosed check (cheque) (Bank of America) for 3975.00 which I was supposed to take to Walmart, spend 50.00 keep 200.00 pay a 60.00 fee to Money Gram and wire 3,665.00. I am given 24 hours to accomplish this with the instruction to remain "professional and confidential." I guess this is so I won't alert the banking folks I am about to be scammed. This is the phone number I am supposed to call. This is the oldest scam commonly referred to as the Nigerian Check Scam. The check will later bounce and you will be liable for the money. If you get this, turn it over to the Postal Inspector. It is mail fraud.

we got the same check and same BS. so i called the number to see what was up and the number is out of order.so dont fall for this junk.so i bet they have changd numbers so they can keep scamming people.

Also received a letter from this company with a check for $3,975.00 and told to cash the check but wire $3,665.00 back to them via WalMart Money Gram within 48 hours and I would get to keep $200 of the original check as payment.  Let's see, risk $3,665.00 of my own money in order to get paid $200 - I don't think so - definitely a SCAM!!!!  The address on the letter was from Wisconsin, the postmark and phone number was from Canada and the bank on the check from California :/

I was sent a check for an amount.  The letter said I was a going to be  a secret shopper.  They would give me $200. but I need to buy $50.00uff at walmart.  I then need to wire a money gran for the rest of the money.  hmmmmmmm   i think its a scam how about You!
