Secret Shopper

Our local hometown newspaper has an ad for a secret shopper, listing a website. Has anyone ever done anything like this? Would you recommend it? I'm going to fill out the forms and see what happens, it might be fun!?

I took a couple of secret shopper assignments about three years ago. I ended up not really having enough time for it. One of my assignments was a last minute job, so they doubled the pay. A former co-worker of mine has done this for years and enjoys it. She has had many free dinners, movies, etc. The time filling out the reports has to be taken into consideration when deciding whether this is right for you. It wouldn't hurt to give it a try. Good luck!

I've never had luck with any of the sites I've signed up for. Seems like there is a million on the internet, and would love to secret shop places, but I can never find sites that ACTUALLY have places to shop.

Maybe I'll try the ones above.

these forms ask for your SS# ..... are they safe? would your info be safe with them? they will have a lot of personal info if you fill up the form!!!
That's scary....
