CONSUMER / SHOPPER WARNING!
11/20/2011 - Fraudulent Job Offers on Craig's List:
An individual or individuals posting opportunities on Craig's List and other
locations using email addresses from the domain "amusementadvantageinc.com"
offering jobs, and mystery shopping opportunities is committing fraud.
They are using many names including Paul Shane, Danielle Leon and many different
email addresses.
They will state that you will be shopping at
Wal-Mart and Western Union or other locations. They are trying to involve
individuals in cashing fake checks and then sending the money to them. We do
NOT use the domain amusementadvantageinc.com as we always use
amusementadvantage.com with no inc in the address. Please
consider any communication from these individuals as a scam or fraudulent
behavior. We never conduct any business or complete any shops that involve
cashing checks or money orders or other projects with funds in this manner.
We also do not conduct shops at Wal-Mart or other regular retail locations.
All our assignments are related to attractions or tourism in some manner. Please share any information regarding such scams with the Federal Trade
Commission and the Mystery Shopping Providers Association.
