2020 Professional Whos Who Publication Spam Emails

It’s garbage

Remember if it goes into your Spam Box it's a scam Spam=Scam

just received one and deleted it. Spam

I got two of them from the same email address five hours apart.

The "professional who's who" keeps sending me email. I ignore them completely. Very annoying. I am 67 years old, nearly 68, and I am way past the time where there would be any reason to include me in such an "award"

At my age, I do not know if I will be alive in say another 1 year from now

So annoying

you were only 67 at the time of writing this - you've got at least 15 more years to go. Why sell yourself short?

I received this email this morning so my wife and I were leary of it upon looking for validity and found multiple scam alerts. Attached is the URL they used:

...

I wish I could upload a screenshot but there isn't an option. Be aware and alert for these sacms

Outside of my family and workplace (mundane setting) I am of little importance. Don't even question it. It's ALWAYS a scam.

I received an email for 2022 is it a scam again

I’m thinking it probably is, I got the same email myself.

I just received an email like this. Is it a scam?

It's 2022 and I am still getting these. The latest are from: . I informed UMBC, which is a school is Maryland, that people were using their school's email. I get a wide variety of spam emails from "them." On their website, it stated not to buy anything/pay anything, etc., from emails received from the school-they had been hacked.

Since it has been recognized as a scam; what is being done to stop it. there must be a way to identify these crooks and stop the craziness that american people face from these constant emails and phone calls. trace the phone calls, find out where they are calling or emailing from. who is in allowing these to function! They must be renting "workfrom places", shut them down!! folks should insist congress pass legislation jailing and fining the participants! And the people who work there as well. find how these people are hired; if it's easy to find work in these places, it should be easy to plant an informant to get to the bottom of this. follow the money!!!!

I received this email inbox

I received email yesterday April checked it and I believe it's another scam

I received this email today March 25/22
Checked it and I believe it’s another scam

I received email yesterday April checked it and I believe it's another scam

Just received his spam email today. I fact check before responding to emails such as this.

I'm really in Who's Who. This isn't it. Save your time and money.

Hello, I received an email and a phone can from an organization saying that I have been selected for the Professional WHO"S WHO. It Offers for payment between $300 to $1000...broader internet exposure, professional networking, and establishing my brand How do I know if this is a scam? They also offered an engraved plaque...

What is the email address the email came from?

This such a shame because I really thought this was a legit company and they sent me a plaque but I keep on receiving the same email after I spoke with the a spokesperson. I paid to be apart of this company but I never responded back to give anymore information

I joined mensa back in 82, became a management specialist in early 90's and was provided an opportunity to join who's who in 97. they are a real organization and this email is not from them. When they invite you to join they already researched you out and have your information. They dont ask for info to apply. I did notjoin - didnt see the benefit nor am I that much of a ego driven personality.

May I please have an explanation to my previous emails??? I have tried to communicate with someone at Who's Who and do not get a response. Please respond. Thank you. Dale B...

Why would you think you could contact them here? They are scammers, running a scam, sounds like

I received the same email aforementioned in the article two days ago. I never heard of a Who's Who anything and didn't believe the email. However, I decided to research it out of curiosity in case it could be legit. Well, a zillion articles proved my hunch. These people who propagate such falsehoods should be either fined or tossed in jail. Don't they believe in some kind of karma? Ehh ... .

Need to file a complaint with FCC

I put in the name of Donald Trump with a fake email, etc. and was instantly welcomed to this Who's Who. Now if I got an email inviting me to join Who's Nobody, I might think it's real in my case.

I meant “onto”

Stupid autocorrect!

Hahaha!

🏅 for best comment. I think they may be into something. ;)

I am a professional skilled tradesmen in the Arctic Circle working in a remote site but I’m really a nobody and I received one of these today so if there’s someway to call and verify I would do so but quite frankly I believe it’s another scam and I don’t open anything that I don’t know 100% is for real. Beware

I'm a nobody, yet even I received one. Not bad, only two spelling mistakes and it actually reads like English:

These people are HORRIBLE

Constant barrage of spa. block it, it returns with a new address.

this is a shame, because my son was a real member of this organization back in the 90's

I was suspicious but also hurt that anyone could send this out. For me, I had once been nominated for a real Who's Who for work I had done in the community. It didn't materialize into anything but it was something important to me. I had forgotten about it until I read this email. Why do people do this stuff? My online mailbox is full of scams during the time of the COVID-19. It is like they are sending scams related to information on my credit report or other online information sites. It feels personal and sort of like a violation and maybe that is just what they want. Our vulnerabilities for their gain.

These days you are Scammed every which way but loose! You have to be Intelligent and also be an FBI Agent?..
