Job Responsibilities:
There have been reports about lapses in the services of the Management and some of their staffs,the complaints were based on reports which their customers forwarded anonymous Phone calls which were also made to the head office.The Western union locations were reported for evaluation because of Negligence and other reasons. (Staffs? Phone is capitalized? Negligence is capitalized? Loads of improper grammar? Red flags a-plenty here.)

All the tools you will need would be provided to you with details every week you have an assignment. (Fake mystery shopping scams like this are quite prevalent. You're sent a check, told to deposit it, keep your $250 in this case, and send the balance back via Western Union. Anything - I repeat, anything that asks for money to be returned or money to be sent via Western Union is a scam!)
JOB DESCRIPTION:
****************************
1} When an assignment is given to you, you would be provided details to execute the assignment and in a timely fashion.
2} You would be asked to visit a company or store in your area and they are mostly our competitors as a secret shopper and shop with them to know more about their sales and stock , cost sales and more details as provided by the company then report back to us with report. But anything you buy at the shop belongs to you. All we want is an effective/quick job and reports. (Report back with a report? Still more grammar fails?)

****************************
Before any assignment we would provide you with the resources needed {cash} Mostly our company would send you a check which you can cash and use for the assignment.Then we would be providing you details on here. But you follow all information given to you as a secret shopper. (And here's the scammy part. We'll send you money, you keep your part and send us the rest...the checks sent out are actually fake - you end up sending them money, then being held responsible by the bank for a fraudulent check! Please beware this type of scam!)
You can earn more which involves nothing more than shopping at a number of selected retailers and assessing their customer service and reporting back. The company will like to have your direct contact phone number to enable fast contact/communication.
You are requested to confirm the following Information. (Ok, so I need to confirm it...which means you already have it...but you're asking for it...um...what the....? I'm thinking that if you want to hire me, you should already know who I am, and you wouldn't need this...)

Peter werner Agency (Again...a company that doesn't capitalize its name?)
(Never ever accept payment with the condition of returning part of the monies to the employer! I may have a little fun with this one, and respond...I'd love to know why they're asking for my age, when it's illegal to do so. Updates to come, if anything amusing occurs. *evil grin*)
