Woman loses $1,825 to mystery shopping scam posing as BestMark, Inc.

A woman in Houston, Texas is out $1,825 after scammers targeted her using the name of a legitimate company that specializes in mystery shopping. The victim came to Salted Hash’s attention after a family member read a post on CSO’s XSS blog detailing a resurgence of Walmart-themed mystery shopping scams. The Better Business Bureau issued a warning last week urging residents not to be fooled by phone calls or job offers concerning mystery shopping opportunities. The BBB notes that the scammers are posing as BestMark, Inc., and in addition to social media, they’re also targeting people on social media.”]
