Does this job offer sound like a scam?
Question by ActionJackson: Does this job offer sound like a scam?
I posted my resume as a freelance writer on Craigslist a while ago. I’ve received a lot of spam since, but one person contacted me saying
“I have a job offer for you, full and part time positions available. If you are interested contact me asap.”
This seemed like spam, but it didn’t look like any of teh other one’s I’d received, so I emailed back saying I was interested, but wanted to know what the job was. About three days later I got this response
Hello,
We are a company that conduct surveys and evaluate other companies.
We get hired to go to other peoples companies and act like customers
in order to know how the staffs are handling their services in
relation to their customers .Once we have a contract to do you would
be directed to the company or outlet and you would be given the funds
you need to do the job(either purchase things or require services)
after which you would write a comment on the staffs activities and
give a detailed record of your experience. Examples of details you
would forward to us are
1) How long it took you to get services.
2) Smartness of the attendant
3)Customer service professionalism
4)Sometimes you might be required to upset the attendant to see how
they react to clients when they get tensed(under pressure).
We turn the information (you gave us) over to the company
executives and they would carry out their own duties in improving
there services.
Most companies employ our assistance when people give
complaints about their services or when they feel there are needs for
them to improve their customer service. Your Identity would be kept
confidential as the job states (secret shopper) you would be paid $ 200
for every survey you carry out bonus on your transportation allowance
and funds would be given to you if you have to dine as part of the
duty. Your job will be to evaluate and comment on customerservice
in a wide variety of shops, stores, restaurant and services in your
area.
No commitment is made on this job and you would have flexible
hours as it suits you. If you are interested do send in your::
(I)Your Full Name:
(II)Your Residence address:
City:
State:
Zip Code:
(III)Present work address:
(IV)Home and mobile Phone numbers:
(V)Email address:

So we can look at your distance from the locations which you have
to put your service into, and your address would also be needed for
your payments.We also implore you to send a scanned copy of any form
of Identification for the processing of your application form and also
for record purpose but if you cannot provide it presently then you can
provide it later..
Thanks.
