    Anonymous shopping online is about visiting websites and giving feedbacks about them on various aspects to some legally authoritative bodies. The authoritative bodies use the information given for patrolling the websites and preventing them from doing any fraudulent activities if there is reason for any suspicion. The nature of work of the agents is no different from their contemporaries who visit retail outlets. The agents have to be credible and they should be dependable. They should be able to deliver their promised output by the given deadlines. The cyber agencies, like their physical counterparts always try to hire people who can observe critically and write accurate reports.
     
    Mystery shopping online can be done by people belonging to any background. There are no demands for any special qualifications. People belonging to any adult age group can work as agents. They need not be experts in handling computers. They should have a basic knowledge of the working of computers and they should be internet savvy. Even fresh internet users are hired by firms. It is not necessary that they have to be masters in surfing the internet. Experienced users have their own set of problems.

    One should understand that working as internet agents does not ensure work security. These are not stable work profiles and there might some days or months where an agent might not find any work at all. But if the projects go on very well, people can earn a lot from online shopping assignments. After the completion of an assignment the agents are paid by check within a couple of weeks or so. Many times these firms hire international agents who are paid by other money exchange methods. 

    Many firms do not offer work immediately after joining. They ask the agents to first work under probation and take training without any payment. The agents are given a scenario and they are asked to visit a website. After visiting the website, the agents have to answer some questions that are asked by the employers who also maintain another website. Hence the agent has to keep toggling between a couple of websites, one the website on which he is collecting information and another one of the employer for answering questions.

    The mystery shopping online agents have to fill in a questionnaire for their employers regarding the website that they are asked to visit and evaluate. The questions will be based on what the agent feels on seeing the website and how it is similar or different to his expectations. He would be asked if he likes the website and if he would still want to visit it if he were not paid for visiting the website. The scenarios are very simple. One might be asked to pose as a client visiting the website to perform some e commerce transaction. He might be asked to shop for a gift for his son and let the employers know about how the website responds to him and the features that it has got to take the orders.

    The mystery shopping online agents are asked if they liked all that the websites had to offer and if they had detected any drawbacks in the features offered by the website. The training is of a shorter duration than the actual assignment. One needs to spend about half an hour on a training assignment and about an hour on a paid assignment.
