I received an email from a reader who had some questions after reading my post about SecretShopper.com. For the benefit of other readers who may have the same questions, I’m posting the email and my reply:
I just recently applied to be a secret shopper on the same
website you did and I am debating whether it’s worth the while. You
said that you only received $23 from the company, if they made you buy
something from the store did they pay for it? Also I am concerned
about the fact that i gave them my SSN, probably not a good idea. If
you could email me back at your convenience I would really appreciate
it. Thank you!

Here’s my reply:
T,
I only received $23 from the SecretShopper.com, because I only completed one job for them. When you sign up as a mystery shopper, you decide what jobs you will take – there is no minimum workload.
