My mom recieved an email from a company looking to recruit mystery shoppers. I emailed my information to them to see if I would be hired. They emailed me and told me that I was selected and sent a package by mail to my old address. I was out of town and attempted to contact them several times to explain the situation as I was excited to begin quick work.
When I returned home, I recieved the package with a 1000 dollar cashiers check to cash accept 200 dollars as my commison and proceed to one of the specific stores they said and purchase ebay gift cards for the company. I did so, sent them photos of the cards, and wrote a report.
They sent me another package with three cashiers checks each for 1000 dollars each. This time I deposited them into my checking account to make sure the funds were legit. The checks were put on a ten day hold and I inquired a few times with my bank to find out more information about the hold.
I was not given any reportable information. The checks eventually went into my account after the ten days. I proceeded to buy the cards again for the assignment. At this point, 1000 dollars were taken out of my account.
I panicked and called my bank. They told me they would not be able to have information on it until at least one day after the posting. I checked with them yesteday and they said the check was reversed based on improper information.
That day the second Citizens bank associate the next day said the other three other checks are being reversed as well. As a result, all of my accounts were wiped clean. I was left with five dollars and forty cents. I still have the ebay cards and will attempt to get my money back somehow for the cards.
I really just hope some relief will come of this, its been an incredibly hard week and I have bills due today.
