A busy several days? I've received three new comments on this blog, meaning there must be plenty of those bogus emails going out from Willow Mist and ISN these days.
Sometimes the comments are thank-yous -- because the person found this blog and realized they could be scammed.
Other times the comments are confirmations -- other people who were scammed, too.
Wish I could save everyone the trouble! It's a lesson for all of us to research well and hard before we give anyone our hard-earned money. Here's how to research these kinds of things:
In a search engine, use the name of the company, then the word "blog" If that doesn't yield good information for you, then use those terms, plus the word "problem" or "scam." Like this
ISN, International Speakers Network, blog, scam
or
Willow Mist, blog, scam
You can do that for any solicitation you get from any company for any purpose. You may have to click on 3-4 pages worth of search results, but you'll be able to get an impression of how much you'll really get for your money.
Good luck! I hope this has saved you some trouble.
