If you receive a check in the mail, do not cash it!
Premier Service Inc. will never send anyone a check
in the mail! The fraudsters that do this are NOT related
to our company. Please report ANY check you receiv
e in the mail to the authorities!
For the last few years, a scam has occurred where
victims will receive a large-sum cashier’s check in the
mail, asking you to cash it, and to evaluate the service you receive.
The most recent letter asks the consumer to deposit
the check to your bank account, and to wire the money
to a specified address. Your “reward” is that you
get to keep the difference between the check amount
(usually $4,700), and what you have to wire (usually $4,000).
Of course, after you do this, the check will bounce,
and you will lose the money you wired. Sadly, there is
usually no way to get back your money.
Lately, the they use a phony name similar to our company.
We are not related to “Premier Market Research
Services”, or any other sounding name. We are a reputable
firm, in business for over 18 years, and are good
standing members of the Retail Council of Canada an
d the Mystery Shopping Providers Association.
As soon as we became aware of this problem, we contacted
the RCMP, as well as the local Montreal police
department and have filed reports with various agencies.
Please do not cash the check as you will lose the money!

or a victim, please report it to these agencies:
Always Remember... If something sounds too good to be
true, it probably is!
