Beware of the Mystery Shopper Vacancy Employment Scam

If you receive an email from someone offering you an opportunity to get a job as a mystery shopper or  any other position beware. The scammer will ask you for all sorts of information including your full name, address, phone, cell phone number and even ask you to sign a form.  Here is an actual copy of an email we received via our web site today…complete with misspellings throughout:
