Cambridge Who's Who
Scam, Ripoff

I would say I feel pretty stupid for falling for this as an accomplished professional, but when I read the number of complaints and people who have been scammed by Cambridge Who's Who, I realize I am not alone... Just among the many regular people who are simply too trusting.

I am in the process of disputing the charge to my credit card for the very same issues described in the other report from Carol in CA - I was scammed into purchasing a "Gold" membership for over $700 and promised all sorts of networking support, recognition and the plane ticket anywhere in the USA. I only wished I had googled them before I gave them my credit card #. It has been 2 weeks since I made that mistake and have yet to receive anything from the company. Not a letter, a receipt, nothing.

So I called to cancel the "membership" only to be told the transaction was "final." They said the package was "on the way." When I told the rep that I had not been informed of that, she got defensive and said she had to contact her compliance department to review the tapes of the initial conversation I had with their rep to verify if that was the case. I wonder if they even tape the conversations or just say they do to sound more legit... She said she would call me back, but would not give me a time frame - I'm not holding my breath.

In the meantime, I've contacted American Express to dispute the charge and advised them it was a scam. I will take the advice of others and threaten to contact news agencies and legal action if they don't refund my money. I certainly have the contacts for that!

I hope others will read this and other reports and learn from my mistake before its too late!
