Apparently some people are receiving checks in the mail claiming they were chosen as "mystery shoppers" or "secret shoppers".

MARQUETTE -- This warning comes from the Marquette County Sheriffs' office.

Apparently some people are receiving checks in the mail claiming they were chosen as "mystery shoppers" or "secret shoppers".

The scam tells the individuals that the effectiveness of money grams at Walmart is being checked.

Be careful if you get that kind of inquiry, and don't give personal or financial information over the Internet or telephone.
