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!!!

I received another fax with this return phone number, (613) 236-4790, only this time from Toronto Equity Advisors. They advised that there was a buyer willing to pay millions of dollars for one of our companies that ceased to exist several years ago. Coincidentally I'm sure, Toronto is one of the major financial scam centers of the world particularly in the area of penny stocks.

Have received two faxes within two days. Very annoying!

I just got my poorly written fax form Lionell Cartier and I am in Los Angeles. It is pretty funny to see all of the posts from around the world and I agree with the guy who said this is Saturday Night Live material.
Is their objective to get an up front commission? I would call and mess with his head but I have too much work to do. And yes If someone offered me 4 million I would take it and do three back flips right into the pool at the Grand Wailea in Maui Hawaii. :-)

They have arrived in Spain today also! It was addressed to our CFO who immediately brought it over to me not knowing what to expect... I immediately saw this was spam and was happy to find this thread with so many people experiencing the same thing.
If they are sending so many faxes it means that there are people falling for it, which is pretty sad...
It was sent from "Wall Street Global" and the SVP was Lionell Cartier (rich name right??) :-)

We have received faxes from: Wall Street Global (a real firm, apparently), Mergers & Acquisitions Department, and Partner Finders USA. All letters are similar in that they bear a person?s name, and the company name. Both names are repeated at least 3 times within the body of each letter; this makes them seem more personal.You might ask: how could they know a person?s name, if they are not legitimate? In our firm?s case, we can be located via www.corporationwiki.com. Many names are associated with the record for our business. The site provides phone numbers, and a link to our website. There are probably many other, similar sites available to scammers. I located ?corporationwiki? by Googling our business name, and the individual to whom the scam letter was directed. All of this information is free. It can?t be very hard for these pimply-faced scammers to then contact us, innocently asking for a fax number. Then the fun begins. Of course, they can probably get a fax number from some other ?free site,? too. It is fruitless to attempt to out-scam these people. Remember, they have a game plan that has already been well thought out. If given the chance, they will simply draw you into their game. Read this about a different, but similar incident in the November 2011 issue of The Atlantic, entitled ?Hacked!? by James Fallows: http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2011/11/hacked/8673/. Consider this: the only truly worthwhile solicitation is the one that you have initiated.
