I received the same letter today and found online a news report recently about the exact scam but my letter came from Survey Assurance Inc. Buffalo NY. The check is from QRC Tech LLC Madison Heights, MI bank of Check - National City Bank of Michigan/Illinois. Yes the check looks very real -- but was wondering why do they just send these out and HOPE the people actually wire the money. The news report online says that the scammers then can gain access to your checking account and drain it. I have no idea how they do it but maybe it's that YOUR bank clears the check only to have it come back afterwards as fraudulent? I have no idea -- it's not hat the money they are paying the secret shopper sounds outrageous -- really that they trust people to actually wire the money. And there is no recourse there because they want you to claim that the recipient is a relative. Still wondering how they gain access to your checking account though. Does anyone know? And yes this envelope had no return address and came postmarked from Canada. Maybe their way to avoid federal mail fraud laws.I would assume.No one called me -- just got the letter.
