Scam Warning: Fake “YouGov Mystery Shopper” Job on WhatsApp Requests IBAN Details

June 17, 2025 1:24 AM161

I applied for a job posting titled “YouGov Mystery Shopper” and later received a message on WhatsApp confirming that I had been accepted. They provided a long list of instructions and asked for my IBAN details to process payments. I carelessly shared the information but soon after began to feel suspicious, so I deleted all communication immediately.

I want to make it clear that I do not authorize or accept any account, transaction, or action carried out in my name without my full knowledge and handwritten signature. Any such activities from this point forward are entirely without my consent or approval.
