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!!!

Received notice from Wall Street Global stating the same as above, signed by Lionell Cartier, return phone (613) 236-4790.

I am contacting the real WSG to inform them of these scammers, and hopefully they'll be able to do something. But it doesn't take much to change a name on a fax.

Faxed 4/11 & 4/13 to a public library, invitation to "sell your company or find an investor/partner", from "Steven Smolen Vice President". At the bottom: cWSPEG2012 (maybe real, legal name?). Free event is 10am-1pm 5/18 at Trump Taj Mahal Hotel, AC, NJ   - If you really want to track these people down, maybe you could attend!

Their new name is now Wall Street Global and their scam appears unchanged. They write "about a large multi-hundred million dollar buyer interested in opening up immediate negotiations to buy all of part of [insert random company name here]". They ask us to call (613) 236-4790 and it is signed by Lionell Cartier, Senior Vice President. A silly yet annoying scam. I suggest not making any attempt at contacting them or clicking on any link mentioned.

I received this fax and followed up with a phone call from the "Chairman" or some such nonsense.  His name was Harvery Marcus.

This is an absolute scam.  The trick is to get you to purchase (for around $20K) their services to prepare you for the 'sale'.  

Note, there is no history of this company ever making a sale and the 'buyer' is connected to them.

I would suggest everyone call them and ask them how they feel about being scam artists....

We get loads of these types of faxes and several phone calls from Mergers and Acquisition companies wanting us to go to one of their free seminars at a local hotel.  They then want to scam you out of $50k for a Performa on your company.  They say they have buyers and will refund the 50k once they sell the company for you.  Guess what?  No buyer and no $50k back too bad?.I ignore all faxes.  If it comes through my lawyer of is address from a law firm then I would take it seriously.  If not just chuck it.When I get phone calls I always quiz them on our company.  If they don?t take the time to know us before they call how can they have a buyer?Keep these posts going, hopefully someone doesn't fall prey to these scams.
