Customer 1st Research Center
Beware of Customer 1st Research Center Mystery Shopper Scam

I received an envelope in the mail today addressed to me. I opened it and found an invitation to be a mystery shopper along with company evaluation sheet, an acceptance form that I had to complete accepting the "job".

The check was in the amount of $ 4.260.00.

I was told I had to go to two Money Gram locations, one of them being a Walmart store. The other Money Gram location could be of my choice. It even allowed me to shop in Walmart and spend $ 60.00.

I was asked by the contents of the letter to call the number 514-436-2487 to claim receipt of the check. I called this number. Sarah Willis who answered the phone gave me the same directions as the letter stated. She then "authorized" me to cash the check.

I asked plenty of questions and she seemed to be getting annoyed by it. She kept putting me on hold for about 1-2 minutes at a time.

I got nervous when I asked her why the check was from a Skintastic company. She avoided the answer. I Googled Skintastic and Skintastic turns out to be a Cosmetic Surgery place in Texas. The check is writen from a Sterling Bank in Texas.

I then came here to this website and as it seems so many people have posted the same story line I have here.

It is evening time right now but in the morning, I plan on calling the authorities to see what they would like to do with this.

I am so glad I checked this website because I was seriously considerering depositing the check into my bank in the morning.
