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!!!

Wall Street International or Global has reached Down Under in good old Australia.  I've received several faxes.  Interesting that there's no return fax or email number.  My corro was addressed to P***** (given name) Psm.  The dumb bunnies don't realise that P***** retired several years ago and "Psm" actually stands for Public Service Medal.  I've never taken this seriously, but I wish they would back off and not waste our paper and time.

keep getting faxes also from WSPEG, offices throughout the world, about foreign buyers. foreign buyers looking to buy ur company because of their desire to live in the US and escape the challenges of the rest of the world. signed Michael Bruney, V.P.  Could u please STOP this annoying B.S. and get a real job like the rest of us hard working AMERICANS. Oh wait must have lost my head because u are not real AMERICANS u r illegal aliens!!!

Once again, the same world scam, here in Spain. Mr. Cartier, the scammer, tries to take proffit on this crisis. Dont waste your time on this message.

Wow even the scam artist are getting lazy. Got a fax from the" Wall Street Private Equity Group" with the Vice President Malurria Gurtar OMG! this so lazy it has the same phone number (613) 236-4790. They must have read all these comments and decided to use a real companies name as if the real Wall Street Private Equity Group really has a shortage of companies wanting to be boughtout in this country. So don't waist a phone call on these lazy con artist want to be's. Wow I am working harder on this comment than they did on there so called scam lol ok got to go and do some real work.

the same happened to me too, same person

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.
