I have an aunt who works for a company as a product tester/ mystery shopper, and I told her I was interested in it.... then I got this. I'm almost positive that it's a scam, but not 100%. The e-mail:

Total scam.

There are many indicators, but 2 of the most common are here, so I will point them out.

-The ridiculously high pay. Real shopper assignments for new mystery shoppers pay nowhere near $300 per assignment! The vast majority of assignments for experienced shoppers don't either.
-The claim that the check will be included in your acceptance. Real mystery shoppers are not paid up front. A real mystery shopper would complete the assignment, submit their assessment, and apply for reimbursement when the job is done.

That's what I thought, thank you though. I called my aunt and she said it was a scam because the company she works for doesn't send out e-mails to people...

I'm not sure how the scammer has managed to get a reply-to address at jpnaturalinc.com, which is a legitimate website and does not appear to offer email/webmail, but I have contacted to let them know of the abuse. (Please note that we do not report free email/webmail accounts such as yahoo, etc.)
Thank you for posting this. :D
