Could you explain more about how u did this? We are insterested in making money. However, I am wondering it is legal or not? I understand that risks go with money, but we still want to trade off between greediness and security.
If u r caught, what will happy then?
Another way I used to make some extra cash was to contract with "mystery" or "secret" shopping companies. I would often be paid $25 per bank to inquire about accounts using a script. I made a lot of money on this job.

Of course mystery shopping is legal. It's a job as an independent contractor to evaluate customer service. These banks and many other retail companies contract a mystery shopping agency to do these evaluations. There are thousands of these types of companies. You pay self employment taxes.
I can't imagine you've never heard of this before! If you want info on it, just do a search for" mystery shopper".
And as far as "getting caught", well I've never had a CSR ever ask if I was a mystery shopper. You are usually just "shopping". Why would a CSR think you were anything but a potential customer?
