Worldwide Internet Shipping Headquarters
LF4317 LF4317 is offline 10-10-2005, 11:28 PM

Does anyone have any experience or information on Worldwinde Internet Shipping Headquarters (WISH)?

After responding to an ad on craigslist.org, I get an email saying that I have been selected to be one of thier Ad Models. They want a $289 "security fee" up front. I also find it kind of odd that the emails are from a yahoo.com email address.

I have. I've been working with them for over 3 months. NO PROBLEMS PERIOD. They acually make it seem worse then it really is. No matter what you get your paid money back by gross fees every month(even if you dont sell anything) I will give you the modeling agreement if you need? Also about the yahoo email adress... they dont want spam so they use that for recruiting... when your working with them you have emails to contact like *****rep@ptd.***. And customer serice ones like that. Wow the best part about it all is the costumer service guy Ron.... or ronald w.e. Well he is availible like every second to talk to. HES SO KOOL. and yeah so if you need any more info just ask me. Also if you want i can show you some ads?

Can you verify this? I for one don't think models or actors should pay to be talented. It's thier skill that the client is looking for. Sounds a little bit fishy to me.

Default WISH is a scam

I don't know who is writing those responses for the wish network, but Ron Grossman, the owner, has been caught out in many of scams. Just type in his name into a search engine and you will find all the newspaper articles. Nobody ever makes money with them, just ask them, but of course if you do that then they will not get back to you. Hope this helps someone.
