I got a following e-mail.  

xxx Evaluation Inc is a company that conducts surveys and evaluates other companies. We get hired to go to other peoples companies and act like customer in order to know how the staff is handling their services in relation to their customers.

Once we have a contract to do, you would be directed to the company or firm,

and you would be given the funds you need to do the job (either purchase things or require services), after which you would write a comment on the staffs activities and give a detailed record of your experience.

Examples of details you would forward to us are:

 

1. How long it took you to get services.

2. Smartness of the attendant.

3. Customer Service Professionalism.

4. Sometimes you might be required to upset the attendant, to see how they react to clients why they get tensed.

We turn the information over to the company executives and they would carry out their own duties in improving there services.

Most companies employ our assistance when people give complains about their services, or when they feel there are needs for them to improve their customer service.

Your Identity would be kept confidential as the job states (secret shopper)

you would be paid $200 for every duty you carry out, and bonus on your transportation allowance, and funds would be given to you if you have to dine as part of the duty, your job will be to evaluate and comment on customer service in a wide variety of shops, stores, restaurant and services in your area.

No commitment is made on this job, and you would have flexible hours as it suits you.

4 checks x $875= $3,500

 

I “googled” the keyword “scam, Western Union” and learned it was probable a scam. One man cashed the checks, the bank found those were fake checks and deducted from his account.

 

Here is a good article.

The most important … don’t pay a company to hire you and be wary of companies that ask you to disburse money from your own pocket for the goods you buy as their secret shopper.
