This scam is suposedly from Mystery Shopper Providers Association. I recieved a check in the mail today for $2100.00. It is a Wells Fargo check. The account holder name is Daniel Wainberg. Address is xx San Felipe Street Houston Texas 77056. They sent it by United States Postal Service Priority Mail with a tracking number. The return address says Jamille Jackson. The address on it for Mr.Jackson says xx Stanford CT Midlothian VA. ( A search of the tracking numbers shows the mail actually came from Bedford Park IL and the return address is actually a house for sale!)
My letter states I am to deposit the check at my bank upon receipt and withdraw the cash instantly with no delay. Says I am to cash it at MY bank only for security reasons. Then I am to go to Walmart, and spend $100.00 on anything I want and I get to keep what is purchased with the $100.00. Then I am to deduct $300.00 as my commission for this assignment. The remaining money is for the Western Union section of the assignment.
I am to send the remaining $1700.00 minus fees for the transfer to Edward Meyer in Chicago IL. I am suppose to make a report detailing the information about my experience at Walmart and Western Union and send to the contact person, Shawn Morrie. There were 2 seperate email address's on the letter.
I would love to see the person/persons doing this prosecuted. My mother was in a car accident and hurt badly and when I seen the check for $2100.00, my first thought was thank God! Then my senses kicked in and i realized this is too good to be true. Its sad people prey on the un fortunate.
