Shopper Scam Back

An old scam is back in Northwestern Ontario
The victim recieves a letter with directons on how to become an employed secret shopper.
Once the victim agrees, they will recieve cheques in the mail and be told to deposit them and then take out the full amount.
Once the money is withdrawn, the victim is told to send a moneygram minus $450, which they can keep as “training pay”.
However, the bank transactions result in a fraud deposit and end up costing the victim.
A reminder, if it’s too good to be true, it probably is!
