VIRUS ALERT!! We got a FAX with this phone number on it, that say they're from WALL STREET INTERNATIONAL. The fax was specifically targeted to our company and my boss, asking if you would be 'receptive to having your story told on Fox Business News or Bloomberg TV', at our company.

I tried to check it out, Googling 'Wall Street International', and immediately our virus checker went crazy with all the stuff that was coming at my computer!! There were worms and trojans and spyware galore! It took 2 days to get rid of it all--STAY AWAY, is my advice!!!

Happy New Year - and they are back again, same company (Wall ....), same contact, new phone no.
new text.

They might have called today, can't be sure there are other scammers also out there. Unfortunately the connection was bad. I'd love to tell them to google themselves!

Whoa, these guys are really going global!Israel now pinned down as well.

Epidemic spreads.
Now it came to Poland.

Dear old Lionell Cartier and his pal Richard Solera seem interested in acquiring French companies as well! Mind you, Paris IS a nice place so I understand they want to come over ;-)
We receive something like 3 faxes a week at the moment. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Such a waste of ink a paper...

anche noi abbiamo ricevuto fax da Wall Street Global Richard Solera
è una bufala ??

Fax received from Toronto Equity Advisors, an Ian O'Brian. It was addressed to my wife, however used "Mr." in salutation.  We just happen to have three businesses and 237 acres of real estate for sale here in Virginia, so I called them and I believe that they are a "scam". (our business is www.historicjordansprings.com)  It is 11:07 p.m. and I just called them and they wanted me to identify them and their contact.  I am 63 years old and consider myself to have "been around the cup" a few times in life, but this one was a new one on me. The real "tip off" is the incorrect corporate name for us, their poor choice of wife OR husband and a "bad signature".  Also, I have dealt with numerous businesses in the Canada and Europe and they have always been very professional and the Toronto Equity Advisors fax and business letterhead is quite unprofessional (I always like to look into real or non-real situations when it comes to business, because there are many cultures crossing lines and dealing with other business cultures that are valid.)

I am pleased that there are many other "non believers". I get about 300 business emails a day and many letters and usually only about 7% are scams. In the body of the letter they state my wife's name as if they are "good buddys" of her (although they assume that she is a him.) Also if they ask a question, they should end the sentence with a question mark. The list goes on - but I believe that you got the point.

I look into these things at the end of the day as that is where they usually belong, unless they have value and in that case - they are on the beginning of my next day list.

Good luck to all of you who have come before me.
