Legal Question in Business Law in Alabama

I'd go with the old adage, "If it sounds too good to be true, it is."

Whether this particular company is "crooked" or not I cannot know. I do know that there are LOTS of mystery shopping opportunities available, many of which are really very reputable, but they don't usually pay in the $1000 range for someone to evaluate WalMart (WalMart evaluations tend to pay in the $10-100 range, I believe). Payment through this nutty setup you describe is weird, too; reputable secret shopping providers just send a check to the shopper.

DON'T respond to any unsolicited email with your personal information, including especially banking information!!!!!!! You don't know whether this is an identity theft scam or not; why run the risk?
