Is this Mystery Shopping a hoax?????

Question

http://www.shadowshopper.com/

They "give" you a free membership but you have to pay a membership fee to recieve job postings...

look legit but i dont know how to tell...

IF it is fake, does anyone know of a REAL place that does this??? There has to be a company out there...

Answer 1

First off, any mystery shopping company that requires a fee to join is a scam. All legitimate companies will bring you on free of charge. Some companies might have you fill out an application first to check if you are qualified.

Here is my favorite company:

Dynamic Advantage, Inc.

They are based on the west coast, but they do shops in major cities across the country. Send an email or call. Let them know what areas you can cover and ask if there is work in your area. They will set you up.

I have worked for them for a few months and have been receiving regular checks.

Answer 2

This stuff is usually fake when they ask you for a fee.  This is asking you for a fee and it is fake (most probably).  

If it is real then they will be PAYING YOU instead of asking for a fee.

This probably gonna break your hopes of making money.  The consequences of joining this kind of site could lead to them stealing your identity.

Answer 3

I*f any mystery shop company asks for a fee for jobs, they are not legit, companies pay them to provide mystery shoppers for them of which thwey pay you, there are some legit companies out there , but they are hard to find , sorry i don't know the names, but good luck on your search/
