Hi a while ago I came across this site, realised they took fees and did not use.

http://www.themysteryshoppingclub.co.uk/1.htm

I then had an email stating that they do work where you do not get paid fees, they have now allocated me work and yet this is how some of the email reads:

INSTRUCTIONS:-

For this evaluation we will need to send you funds to purchase
Items at any supermarket and make evaluation service at
XXXX location close to you.
therefore it is important for you to set up an account with the
bank of Halifax for receiving funds to purchase your items and
to make evaluation service .so if you do not have an existing
account with the Halifax bank set up one today so that we can place
you for the next available assignment.

The reason why we recommend Halifax bank is because of our good
business & banking relationship and this will ensure a free flow
transaction.

Please note that it is important that you to let us know which
days of the week and time that you will be available to take up any
assignment .Every assignment takes place between 8 am in the
morning and 12pm in the afternoon, Monday - Saturday

You will be sent funds which would cover your payment
for your mystery shopping at supermarket and also for the evaluation
service at XXXX .


Is this legit?

Is it heck! Just the grammatical errors alone make obvious that it's a scam. No company would dictate to you what bank you should set up an account with. Smelly, smelly rats.

Am I being a bit thick? I can't see a link anywhere on the Retail Eyes front page for the jobs page. Can someone point me in the right direction please

I am so excited!!!!!!! Getting my Blackberry next week. Weee heeeee :j

Windows are getting fitted on Thursday and Friday so I can't go out. Perfect opportunity to set it all up so that I can finally be the first finger on the websites to nab some of the jobs in my local area.

Can't wait for the vibration of the email alert to tell me there are jobs in my area or that there's a job alert on the alerts thread rather than going to the laptop at home and logging in whenever I can.

Happy happy me. :T

Looks like RE's spate of quick marking was just a blip. Had a report sitting for 2 days awaiting marking :mad:.

2 days is nothing for RE .... about a month ago my record was 19 days!!

Which one are you getting? I'm interested in getting one too for the email alerts. Do you pay extra for the email? Sorry, not being nosy, just interested

DH has an iPhone and swears by it, but the cheapest PAYG one where you get it free is £35 per month and I don't know if I can justify that right now.

Put my name down for 4 glasses jobs for TERN the week after next, doubt if I'll get them but worth a shot isn't it.

This definitely looks dodgy - The bank of Halifax may be interested to know they are being involved in this.

Interesting advert from Retail Maxim......

They have put ads in local media + JobCentre advertising for MS vacancies in my area.

Strange that, I only get one job a month from them. LOL
