How to tell a scam
I have a heightened bullshit detector built inside of me but it seems my mother never did. She called today to say she had a job! She was thrilled and excited and said she would be a mystery shopper for WalMart and they had sent her a $3000 check to get started.
Sigh.
But in the new and improved Rachel, rather than say, “Are you crazy?” instead I said, “Let me Google that. No, I’m not finding anything. It sounds like a scam, but I don’t know, I need to see the letter myself.”
I really hate scam artistis and I particularly loathe those who prey on the elderly.
