The company sends a check in the mail with instructions s on how to be a paid secret shopper. The check is from the Wal-Mart home store, in my case Bentonville, AR. They ask you to allow 12-24 hours for the Che k to clear and give you instructions on withdrawing money, signing into their Web page (privform.com), then accepting and commpleting assignments, which include wiring the majority of the money in a Western Union transfer to Madrid Spain and in a Wal-Mart to Wal-Mart transfer, in my cas to GA (yes, I took the bait). I was able to cancel my transactio.s-thank goodness and probably saved myself alot of misery. I reported this to the fraud departments of both Wal-Mart and Western Union.
I opened an envelope post marked Madrid. There was a check for $1999.20. It had the Walmart logo on it. It had Walmart HQ address. The phone number on the attached letter was a 202 area code. I called the number, busy signal. 9pm Pacicifc to a DC number why would the line be busy? All red flags.. too many cities and locations. A way to confuse people. Came to rip off report, it popped up instantly. When I google privform, absolutely nothing comes up except their web site. So this is thier newest name...search this sight wit consumer service evaluator and you will see previous names. One report said they get it to copy your IP address to hack your personal info. Though I wen to the website, I didn't log in, so I don't know if just going there without logging in is enough for them to grab yout IP or not. I started to get a lot of calls and spam when I signed up for Publishers Clearing House. To enter they require a lot of info and questionares. Not sure if there is any connection.
