  A mystery shopper or a mystery consumer is a tool used externally by market research companies. They are people who are paid to do the shopping and report back to their tool masters. As no sponsored or paid content is allowed on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and as affiliate marketing blogs are not allowed what you suggest is not going to happen. Here’s what gets a blog suspended at WordPress.com:

  You’re welcome. You can hire a web host and set up your own WordPress.org install as those restrictions won’t apply.
