Corporate Research International scam

I rec’d a check for $2989.00, supposedly from the Mystery Shopping firm of Corporate Research International. With it were suspicious instructions to deposit it at my bank. Then text Chad Glasspoole at (651) 560-6934 when deposited. Next, go to a USPS branch and purchase 3 money orders, each for $800. The balance was supposedly mine to keep. I am to send the 3 money orders, still blank, as well as the receipt for said money orders to Chad via Fed Ex.

I am to report on items regarding the USPS interaction - a number of items was listed on the instruction sheet. Indeed, I am signed up as a Mystery Shopper with CRI, but no where was it mentioned that I should log into my CRI account in order to fill out my report. Indeed, when I did an online search of Chad Glasspoole, all I find is that he was arrested at one time! There is no mention of CRI.

They enlist you to be a secret shopper, send you check ($2450.49), telling you to cash it and wire money to 3 different people, keeping $235 as commission for myself. Tell you to tell them when check funds are available, and transfer the money quickly. Check will come back as conterfeit.

I received a Fedex letter and cashier's check for $1,950 drawn on Huntington National Bank, Columbus, OH. Instructions in the letter were to send an email and text to Thomas Karter to confirm receipt. Then, go to my bank to deposit the check and keep $400 for my self. I was then to go to two different MoneyGram agents/stores and send $730 to two recipients: Micheal Asiamah, Dallas, TX and Anthony Taylor, Dallas TX. The company offered an additional $300 MoneyGram gift voucher if the assignment and report was completed within 48 hours.

The cashier's check appears real, but doesn't have any watermarks and the amount of the check is not written out in text words. Tammy Woodall is listed as the Remitter.

This Company pretends they are doing a secret shopper survey and your target is money gram. They sent me a cashiers check in the amoun of $1993.00 along with complete instructions. The instructions tell me i will be earning $200.00 For this assignment. With enthusiasm and strict adherence to instructions. you will complete thes tasks independently within a few days. Their words not mine..

!) send an email to confirm receipt of your packet as soon as you receive this memo [email protected] your email inbox & spam folder for follow-up email instructions

2) please make a mobile phone check deposit (immediate funds availaability with processing fees applied) or go to your bank/atm to have it deposited this helps to confirm the right recipient has the check. ($1993.00) (email me immediately after the deposit has been made for the funds to be made available to you) & email a copy of deposit slip after the deposit has been made ([email protected])

3) The funds would be available in a few hours or the next vusiness day. once funds are available you either withdraw the cash or use your bank cards at Walmart stores, thereafter deduct your commission which is $200 and extra $43. to cover cost money Gram Transfer charges for both tasks. The balance of $1750.00 would be used to complete your secret assignments.

Anyway, the letter goes on to tell you to go to two different money gram locations and to send

Melvin Harton 5840 Spring Valley Rd. Dallas TX 75254 Send $890.00 via store A

Robert Stanford 5411 Vinechase Dr.Porter, TX 77365 Send $860.oo via store B

of course it goes on to tell you to email this that and the other and if i complete within 48 hours i will receive an additonal $500 mone;y gram gift voucher which would be posted to your address alongside a first survey completion certificate.

I do see what may be a phone # 601-473-0112. smsonly

i do still have the letter along with the money order in hand.

These people will have you use fake funds to send their contacts this money and when the cashiers check comes back as no good i will be stuck owing the bank the lost funds. i see other people that have fallen for this scam. Wnat to make sure this stops. They are preying on people that just want to work and earn money honestly.

Was sent a Priority USPS flat rate envelope. Inside a cashiers check for 1696.00 with instructions to deposit in my checking account and to take my own funds and send two other people with their addresses 760.00 and 710.00 and the rest of check for me 200.00 and fee costs. Does anyone ever do this? One thing if it were a true cashiers check you could just cash it. ?

I received a package in the mail via priority 2day mail that is tracked and insured that had enclosed a cashiers check from Columbia bank in the amount of $2,289.57, with a letter telling me to deposit this check only by phone deposit or at my bank ATM and to send the money to two different individuals in Texas, but to keep $200 for myself and the $49.57 for the money gram transaction fees. After finding this suspicious and researching online and finding to be a known scam, that the check would bounce after I deposited it and sent the money to the two individuals in Texas...that I filed this report and one with my local police where I turned over the entire package with the check and letter.

Scammed for $ 1998. Sent a cashiers check to cash at bank and send 2 different amounts to 2 different people. I was to collect $300 for my services which was to evaluate 2 Money gram locations which I did. The bank informed me that the check was fraudulent and now I owe the bank $1998 which I don't have since I am disabled and live on my disability income which the bank will take leaving me with nothing to live on all month.

I was to deposit the check and send acopy of the deposit slip to Donna Martin at [email protected] via email. upon confirmation of the funds being available. I was to send two (2) seperate moneygrams to Kevin Ward of Garland, TX and Derek Hamilton of El Paso,TX in the amounts of $850 and $870 and advised to keep the remaining money as payment for my "Secret Shopping" assignment. Further, I was at not time ever supposed to advise the store of my assignment. I attempted contcting Donna Martin via text, email and phone to no avail.
