Further scam script plus details on the western union pick up contact.

Attn *removed* :

Congratulations on being a member of the team. A payment has already been sent to you via USPS Priority Mail which you will use in executing your first evaluation survey. You can track the delivery of the payment as follows;

1. Click the link: https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction
2. Enter your Delivery Confirmation Number: *removed*
3. Click "FIND" and the status will be fetched.

Read and make sure you understand all that is stated below to avoid any mistake. Payment will be issued to cover the assignment assigned to you below. Once you receive the payment, you are expected to take the payment to your bank and have it deposited which takes approximately 24hrs for clearance upon deposition. You are to deduct $250.00 which represents your Bi-Weekly wage. The remaining balance should however be used for the assignments stated below.
*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
1ST ASSIGNMENT:ASSIGNMENT (A) WAL-MART EVALUATION:-ASSIGNMENT (B) WESTERN UNION EVALUATION:-
You will be evaluating a Wal-mart store and a Western Union outlet in your city. Firstly, deposit and clear payments at your Bank and then go ahead with the Wal-mart Evaluation. The payment you receive covers all expenditures including evaluation, shopping, transportation and your compensation ( Bi-Weekly salary=$250.00 ) for these surveys. While carrying out this task, you are to purchase goods of your choice for your own use not more than $70.00 at any Wal-mart store close to you and also you will be using Western Union services to send the balance to another Mystery shopper to carry out his or her own assignment.

As a secret shopper, you should go there and study how to send money as well as memorize all you see at the outlet, we want to carry out a comparison between local transfers and international bound transfers. You are expected to report back to us with the following information:
*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
FEEDBACK

2-Ambiance/Outlook of the Shop/Outlet =
3-Smartness of the attendant =
4-Customer service professionalism =
5-Reaction of personnel under pressure=
6-Information that you find helpful =
7-Your general comments=

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
BELOW IS A BREAKDOWN OF YOUR PROPOSED EXPENDITURE:-Bi-Weekly Salary ............$150.00 (PER WESTERN UNION EVALUATION)
Transport/Miscellaneous......$30.00
Wal-mart shopping ....................$70.00
Western Union charges.............. (PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU ARE TO
DEDUCT THE WESTERN UNION CHARGES FROM THE ACTUAL FEE WITH YOU AND NOT FROM YOUR $250 bi-weekly salary)
*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
As a secret shopper, your job is to observe any thing useful going on in the outlet. Make sure you observe everything you see in there because you would be asked some other questions when you return. Once you are done with the evaluation, you would then go ahead with the balance and make a western union transfer to another mystery shopper for another assignment to the information below:

********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
PLEASE SEE DETAILS TO BE USED TO TRANSFER THE REMAINING FUNDS THROUGH WESTERN UNION:

RECEIVER NAME : Odessa Davis
**********************************************
ADDRESS : 150 EAST 107TH STREET
CITY/STATE : Kalamazoo, MI, 49007
**********************************************
COUNTRY : USA
**********************************************

Finally, at the end of your assignment expected of you is the necessary reports/information obtained from Wal-Mart’s as well as the details for the western union transfer done on to the next mystery shopper. Please see below information required having completed the Western Union Transfer.
