who are unbelievably rude. They have no idea what I am doing there. I shop for a popular fake tanning booth every month, and part of the job requires a phone
call ahead of time, that is recorded. This girl just barely gave me the information I wanted and was really impatient. I went back to re-listen and it was
worse than it felt the first time. I wouldn't be surprised if she gets into quite a bit of trouble. It is totally her fault for being rude, but I also
feel badly for some reason.

We have mystery shoppers that lie. They make up names. It's quite funny when we read them.

^ That's funny. I am not obvious at all, but I do ask a lot of questions if I'm required to, so I can imagine that is annoying. But being annoyed by me
before I even open my mouth is puzzling.
I love mystery shopping...I only hand choose the assignments that pay for me to do something cool, like this or taking the kids bowling. Fun for me, probably not so fun for the people being shopped. |

I used to do mystery shopping for a couple 'luxury brands'. the feedback was always pretty bad, the sales girls/dudes are always horrid bitches in that
store.

to add to all the questions, how did you find a legit site? I would love to do this, but I am scared I will end up getting a bogus site.

Yeah. I've wanted to do mystery shopping for a while but I'm always scared that I'd get ripped off..

All of the mystery shopper ads I've seen sound like scams. I'd love to find one that is legit and actually pays for the stuff I buy!

Don't feel bad unless you were purposely provoking her, it was her choice to be rude

for those interested, check out the MSPA -- it is an organization that certifies legit mystery shopping companies. http://www.mysteryshop.org/
I've done it for awhile -- it's not a steady income, but it's nice to have extra cash sometimes. And I also often mystery shop for gas stations, so I get free gas which is nice. |

I can't remember where I signed up, it was a few years ago and now it all comes to my inbox. I'm sorry I can't help!

when I worked in retail, we got mystery shopped. The mystery shopper was so rude I tried to start her a fitting room 3 times and she wouldn't let me, so I
figured ok this girl does not want to be helped so I just left her alone. She told my boss I didn't start her a fitting room and I was unhelpful. Stupid
bitch

I'm glad we never got mystery shopped when I worked in retail. Supposedly my boss's friends would visit, but if she did I would've gotten fired
loong before I quit.
During slow months my co workers and I just sit on the floor/counter and text or talk to each other.. lol |
