Unfortunately, there are unscrupulous people who would like to extract money from you by pretending to be Sago, Schlesinger Group, or FocusGroup.com. They may copy our branding and contact unsuspecting people by letter, email, or social media.
Please be alert to the possibility of fraud.
- We will NEVER ask you to wire money anywhere or to send cash
- We will NEVER send you a payment in advance of undertaking research
- We will NEVER ask you to pay a fee to be a researcher or mystery shopper
- We will NEVER promise you can make a large amount of money through a job as a mystery shopper
If an offer to participate in research looks too good to be true, it probably is.
