Mystery shoppers are all the rage now. Companies providing this service are growing large and service many states. What you don't know is that in MOST states this activity is illegal. While there is no statute specifically banning individuals from doing shops, there are laws that define what a "investigation" is and mystery shopping falls well within those definitions. This subsequently requires mystery shoppers, and those companies providing them to hold private investigators licenses. There are a few exceptions Like California, where there is a specific EXCLUSION of mystery shopping from the Private Investigators act. Without this specific exclusion you can pretty much count on it being illegal and sooner or later the Private Investigator's accociations will be pushing for the criminal prosecution of those engaged in this conduct

I want everyone to know that if you got to this site via ZEOXmark, that they are scam artists. If they send you a check; do not cash it. The checks are forgeries from innocent peoples' accounts. Offthewallcomments@gmail.com

I find it quite strange that mystery shopping is banned in some states in America. In England it's quite a legitimate practice with big companies like McDonald's taking part. It's not like they're being private investigators, they're just experiencing the service on offer and filling out a questionnaire about it. Seems quite harmless to me, it's just like customer feedback in my opinion and it will only help companies improve customer service.
