A 54-year-old Summerfield woman discovered her bank account was overdrawn after she fell victim to a Moneygram Secret Shopper scam.
The woman went Thursday to the Marion County Sheriff’s Office’s South Multi-District Office to report what had happened.
She said she had responded to an email regarding becoming a Secret Shopper to survey Moneygram locations in her zip code. She received a check which she deposited in her account.
She was instructed to conduct two transactions at Moneygram locations and send the money to locations identified in the letter.
She later discovered her bank account was overdrawn and the check she had been sent was fraudulent.
