It’s been more than a month since I’ve posted here, and I thought I’d give you an update.
I spent the better part of December, and the first week of January traveling in Vietnam & Thailand. Upon getting back, I got a cold, and have been recovering from it.
Vietnam was a wonderful country. I was initially ambivalent about traveling there, because of the recent painful history between our two countries. My girlfriend’s father lost a limb in Vietnam, and my mother lost many good friends. But, upon arrival I was pleasantly surprised by the warmth of the Vietnamese people.
For the most part, they have put the pain of the war behind them, and are optimistic, entrepreneurial, and almost always ready to share a smile or a laugh.
I had a wonderful time in Vietnam. Perhaps the favorite thing that I brought back from there was two pounds of what I believe to be the best coffee in the world. It was purchased from a beautiful garden cafe in an alley off an alley, in the coastal city of Phan Theit.
Thailand was such a contrast to Vietnam. The city of Bangkok is a very wealthy city, with a whole strata of social classes, from rich to very poor. But the highlight of that city is in the street food. At night, restaurants appear on the sidewalks, seemingly out of nowhere. Complete with tableclothes and candlelight. These sidewalk eateries serve some of the best food in the city.
A delicious meal for the equivalent of about $1 is something remarkable indeed.
Now that I am back home in Seattle I am planning several new projects to help out mystery shoppers.
The first of which is an audio CD that will get you started with mystery shopping, and then give you some of my best secrets earning a very nice income.
It’s good to be back.

How can I get help getting paid for a shop I did back in October, and all my e-mails, even a letter a sent have not gotton any response. If you can help I would appreciate it. Liz
I received an email for a Mystery Shopping Job. I went to apply to
the email address given, and for some my conscious
started talking to me as I was typing in the email address and the
address sounded bogus, I don’t remember the name, but I do have a copy of it. At any rate, I did I google research on the Company and
what came up was informa research service’s Scam!!!! and the rest is history. I have read all of info I can find. And the conclusion that I hae reached is; The last known info I can find, is dated May 2010, this is Jan 2011. So.. Did the scam artist stop for a while?
and also, with all of your great idea’s for stopping this scam. Banks, Post Office, FBI., Ect. Nothing seems to work. So what is the point of pursueing this any further??Virginia
