GfK rarely, if ever, conducts mystery shops involving check cashing or money transfers. We never ask shoppers to send us money. If someone posing as a representative of GfK ever contacts you with a cashier’s check, or if you see an ad promising quick returns for cashing a check, please call GfK Mystery Shopping immediately at 212-240-5471 before trying to cash the check…it may be a scam!
GfK is working with the MSPA (Mystery Shopper Providers Association) as well as the appropriate local, state and Federal authorities to crack down on all individuals involved in perpetrating these schemes.
