Got a fax that asked me to report my contact details for Canadian Who's Who in Business. Not sure if this is the same as the book put out by University of Toronto Press. Have sent email to [email protected] asking for clarification.
Seems sketchy...
"I regret to inform you that The Canadian Who’s Who in Business is not one of the publications of the University of Toronto Press. We do publish Canadian Who’s Who, which celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2010.
You are one of a number of organizations that have recently been contacted by Jennifer Rivera and who have contacted UTP to ask for confirmation of the legitimacy of the correspondence. We have been unable to locate either Jennifer Rivera or the organization, so are unable to confirm the existence of their publication.
Got a fax this morning asking for signature so I could get in The Canadian Who's Who in Business. UTP has not published this since 2004. Must be a scam.
These are the same spam/scam idiots who fax all sorts of "Whos Who" junk. Their last one was the Princeton Whos who or some such nonsense and associated with phone # 905-248-5158 (Google that number for some schits & giggles!). Their so-called "editor" went by 3 different names and they all started with "Jennifer" -- Richards, Ramirez, Conners ad nauseum. Ever notice that they only include a fax-back number??? You can't even call them because they don't want to be traced.
Anyone who falls for this junk scam is really too stupid to even own a computer and should immediately smash it with a hammer.
