"Worldwide Association of Notable Alumni" Scam

Worldwide Association of Notable Alumni Scam

The website: "www.wwana.com" and others like it, which claim to belong to an organization that calls itself "Worldwide Association of Notable Alumni" that are advertised by unsolicited emails, is a scam. The websites, which claim that they are dedicated to empowering their clients with effective branding tools to help them achieve success, is another trick used by scammers to collect personal information. Once the scammers have collected their potential victims' information, they will contact them in order to trick them into paying for bogus or fake membership service that cost hundreds of dollars. Therefore, online users should not visit the websites "www.wwana.com," "www.thewana.com" and others like it, which claim they should register to the join the so-called "Worldwide Network of Notable Alumni Network."

Online users who have already made payment to the fraudulent organization created by scammers, should contact their banks or credit card companies and let them know that they have unknowingly used their credit cards on a fraudulent website.

There are pushy American accented sales people. They misrepresented themselves as being related to the Stanford AlumnI which did make sense based on my history. Hard core sales tactics ranging from super nice to aggressive when super nice doesn't work.

This is definitely a scam. They get you, and start to create bogus charges. As soon as I was signed in, I became the World Alumnus of the Year, which of course, had a cost. The person that signed e-mails to me was Mathew Stern, who probably doesn´t exist. The phone numbers they post are of an answering service. They don´t have an office. Charges are made by "Professional Networking".

How can these people be taken out of business and into jail?

I live in Trinidad, West Indies and I was caught off guard with this scam. My VTM card didn't have funds at the time when the world an called. But a couple of weeks later I loaded my card to buy Xmas gifts for my kids and in no time the card was used by someone online.
