Mystery Shopping! Get paid to go out to eat, visit amusement parks, stay at upscale hotels or shop at certain stores! What a deal!

Yes, there are legitimate Mystery Shopping services, but the companies that send blast emails to twelve million e-dresses at a time may be attempting to enrich themselves by charging YOU a "registration fee."

If you really want to grow up to be a Mystery Shopper, do some research online and apply to a company that does not ask YOU to pay THEM or request your credit card number.

Check the Better Business Bureau before you get involved with any Mystery Shopping company. Or click on this link:
