    No, I reckon they're being sarcastic, only it doesn't come across very well on a forum.

    Just don't fall for this scam. Your best bet is to ignore it. I got one recently that was very well written, nothing like this one at all. It seemed to be very professionally done, but in the end, I ignored it also because you never know until it's too late. There are such things as mystery shoppers, but my gut feeling is that this isn't one of them!

  • I really wouldn't go for it nunona - usually in these scams, they issue you with a cheque/bank transfer, you put it into your bank, you transfer the funds via Western Union. The cheque or bank transfer then bounces, and you can kiss goodbye to your money. It's seriously not worth it.
