My name is M4rk C0k3r, owner of Myst3ry cust0m3r

job offer is for people residing in the UK.

We are a company that conduct surveys and evaluate other
companies. We get hired to go to other peoples companies

handling their services in relation to their customers.

once we have a contract to do so, you would be directed to the company or outlet, and you would be given the funds you

services), after which you would write a comment on the
staffs activities and give a detailed record of your
experience.

Examples of details you would forward to us are
1) How long it took you to get services.
2) Smartness of the attendant
3)Customer service professionalism

to see how they react to clients why they get tensed.

And we turn the information over to the company
executives who will carry out their own duties in
improving their services.

Most companies employ our assistance when people give
complains about their services, or when they feel there are
needs for them to improve their customer service. Your
Identity will be kept confidential as the job states (secret shopper). You will be paid 200 pounds for every duty you carry out, and bonus on your transportation allowance,and funds would be given to you if you have to spend as part of the duty.

Is it me, or is the grammar way different than what the Africans usually write? Is this a different kind of scam from a native English speaker?

No I have been fooled by this before see my post "are local lads too hard".

The wording on that email was outstanding and very convincing that it came from a bank (except the email addresses and the usual offer). I was advised by my Mentor Yastreb not to assume it was local and sure enough when I replied the text came back in caps lock with the usual demands.

They just have really good templates

That script was not written by a native English speaker. It's not as bad as some lad scripts but it's still obviously a lad.

Yeah, it has lad written all over it. I might be psychic, but what do you want to bet that your first assignment will be to observe the efficiency of your local Western Union office?

I did one of these and it was a hoot. My character was so inept, the 'boss' was constantly in a state of rage. Have fun with it!

Although there are LEGIT "mystery shop" of apartments in the US. i get the offers a lot. Bascialy you wear a wire/hidden cam and see what the spill they give you.. pays like $50-$75

That is true every major chain has secret shoppers but I am pretty certain they don't ask for your bank details before they know who you are.

Dream job though, I worked with a part time SS and he used to make us sooo jealous with stories of his tasks, I got one free meal out of him. He did say alot of the jobs can be really boring. A couple of times he had to use his own money and they made him wait 2 months to get it back.
