Bogus Walmart Survey

North Shore Elder Services in Danvers has issued a warning about a bogus survey that purports to come from Wal-Mart. The National Center on Elder Abuse Forum checked with Wal-Mart to verify whether the survey was real or not.

Ashley Hardie at Wal-Mart’s Corporate Offices stated:
“Wal-Mart does not participate in this type of promotion and has no affiliation with the group putting on the survey. If you receive a survey, please contact your local authorities as well as the Federal Trade Commission.”

If you get an e-mail or are otherwise approached about a survey from Wal-Mart, the elder service agencies advise that you report it to the police and the Federal Trade Commission.

  1. The greedy will use every ruse imagionable to rip off the vulnerable.

    That's why punishment of the perps should be stronger.
