Please do something about these people. As a professional there is such a gutted feeling I have inside and as someone still recovering from illness where funds are critical its even worse
Never Ever, Ever Again
Apart from being debited twice for 399.95 claiming it's for the MEMBERSHIP press release, with no more payments for life. Mind you, NO PRESS RELEASE HAS BEEN POSTED. My card has been debited since October 2021 right up until today for 39.99 each month, which because I have been ill over the past few months I didn't notice was happening.
I have called and I have emailed.
There is a Ms Jacqueline Smith, Nancy and an Ashley Kim that claim to be either support staff or from financial department.
I have just alerted the bank and hope to have the card blocked from their charges.
I HAVE BEEN OFFICIALLY SCAMMED !
Up to 30 mins ago, I got an email stating the 399.95 for 2022 press release will be refunded in 15- 18 business days and the monthly membership fees for December and January have already been refunded. But get this! They emailed today secs after I received one of those monthly charges from them telling me the same crap that my card details have been expunged or removed from their system and the money refunded. Yet secs before they used the card.
Looookkkk
I would say I feel angry and ashamed, but sometimes these things have to hit you between the eyes for you to get the COLD HARD FACTS THAT LIFE CAN BE A B[censored] AND YOU CAN BE AND WILL BE DUPED BY SOMEONE AT Some time.
Soooo
ALWAYS BE ON GUARD AND ON FULL ALERT !
PROTECT YOUR CARD DETAILS WITH YOUR LIFE!
It's worth the time if we can collectively work together to shut them down.
As a former employee of only 4.5 weeks, that got scammed out of pay I started to realize not only they ripping off customers but they are also running an employee training mill. They tell you , you're going to get paid in weeks from when you start, then mysteriously we are told some excuse why we aren't getting paid, then the check bounced. They don't care cause they have a new group of trainees right behind us ready to work from home. I am in the middle of filing complainants with the NY Labor board, NY Attorney General, then the FBI. The actual corporations name is Who's who of NY Professionals, Inc. They keep creating shell companies to funnel scammed money through then they start a new one.. Check this out they are already registering new companies to run a new scam through...

We need to stop it hopefully we can! But if we don't work together they continue to get away with it
I've been charged almost $1000 to sign up
Do not join this organization. I wish I'd done better research on this. I'll be reporting them as a scam to my bank when they open.
But to abuse it through means of scamming women and thefting money is disgusting. Way to set us back to having trust issues, now we will have a hard time believing in future associations.
Glad I read more of these reviews to confirm my gut feeling! I applied from what seemed to be a legitimate site too, and saw it on LinkedIn! So I thought for sure it must be real.
The next thing I knew, I was getting calls to my phone, no word of a lie, every five minutes. They never left a message. I would block the numbers, but then a similar number would call again, over and over. I answered finally, and got a lady running a script of Q&A. She was over the top happy and praising how "amazing" I was. Like calm down lady, take it down a few notches, lol.
Anyways, she started throwing the prices I would need to pay for membership. I said I was driving and can't give my credit card, she asked me to pull over and I told her I was on the highway, and she told me to take the next exit and pull over then. Red flag! Clearly desperate to get my card!
I then asked if testimonials and references can be emailed to me, as well as a description of the prices, so that I can confirm the legitimacy of this association. She hung up on me!
TERRIBLE, AWFUL SCAMMERS!
Found on LinkedIn, definitely a scam
Listen to your gut...run from this company

Initial means of contact Phone
I signed up for the ISFP online yesterday through a Linkedin add and never got to finish my application. Yet I was called today from US numbers - I'm located in Europe- and had a 20 minute interview after which I was accepted by a lady who was very nice over the phone. She mentioned the membership fee was USD 299 for a lifetime and USD 199 for 5 years. When I said I didn't realize it was so expensive she offered to make it USD 199,- for a lifetime membership. As I didn't want to give my credit card details over the phone, I asked how to apply via the website, which apparently wasn't possible. This made me suspicious and I told her I would investigate a little further.
Thanks to all of your comments, I now know it's a scam!
I filled in the form and hit a call by this number: +1 (718) 841-4520.I then had an interview by a lady , which I passed with flying colors.I was offered a 5 year membership for $99 or a lifetime membership fir $199, highlighting that most professionals had chosen the lifetime one.She promised a profile, certificate, online bio , press release to other members.
I provided my credit card info, then started getting suspicious when I had to tell her the billing address, name of company, alternative phone number and ….
Thankfully my bank is smarter than me, and declined the transaction.She told me she could not provide a secure link for online payment, for sake of account security!, but had time to stay online when I contact my bank yo get it approved or receive a text from my bank for approval.
I instantly knew it was a scam, so I asked her to stay on line while I called my bank.
I froze my card and and reported it as list/ stolen, requesting a replacement card with New number and new PIN.I also replied to text from my bank that I didn’t approve the transfer.As a result I got a call from the bank and we checked all the transactions for today to ensure they had not already used it.
I received an email from Financial Director of the said ISFP! staring the membership fee transfer was not completed and yo get it done , then call them on the above number so that they would send me the package. They also called me again, which I obviously didn’t answer.
The website looks reasonable legit, so be very careful!
In my case, they failed half way through the script!
It all sounded fishy as wasn't offering nothing different to LinkedIn. When I asked why I need a certificate, this aggressive girl said I don't need to yell at her! Whaaat? ?? and when I said I don't feel comfortable to continue conversation, she said she was not responsible for my feelings and hanged up ? they need to do better than this to con people properly these days ?

All were denied by my credit card company because I didn’t pre approve these charges (my card is smarter than me). It is a HUGE scam. Then they don’t answer when you call them !
I've been trying to get a job for months now, I'm extremely behind on bills, and I have a daughter who is turning 2 this Saturday, and I have not a single dime to get her anything... and I finally get a call, from (International Society of Professional Woman) She hires me immediately and OF COURSE I'm excited. Work from home- $500 a week + commission? That's more than I have ever made. So all of the training is done over Zoom, and we are presented all of the materials that we need, programs we need to install, and of course... A script (What we should say, and how to answer questions during calls.) After the last two days of training, I have had this gut feeling that this was too good to be true, and something is WRONG. I kept asking myself; If we are dealing with professionals, then why aren't we able to provide more information and sell our "products" anywhere else but over the phone? And why are we to push someone into buying right then and there? And if someone gives you all of their card info, why are we to send it to another "worker", OVER SKYPE? I ignored those questions I asked myself, until TODAY, when I felt the need that I should do research before becoming a part of a company that could be a scam... Here I am. I feel like such a [censored] person. I have no idea if the memberships are real, or if they actually provide anything at all... I'm just a mom that's trying to make ends meet. I haven't finished training, and I do not plan on it after reading this. God, I feel so terrible that even I, fell for it. I just want everyone to know, if you received a call from one of these people, they probably have no idea that this "company" is a scam. I tell you this because they sent me actually hire and tax forms, etc. And not once, was it ever mentioned that we would be apart of a scamming "company". We are literally trained just to make calls to apparent "applicants" , take their card information if they decided to chose a membership and the Business information from the Client, and send it over to the next person to do the "transaction" that is all we do. I'm so very sorry to everyone that has gotten scammed by this "company", I promise you, that I will not let myself be one of them, no matter how broke I am.
Went through the phone interview and when she provided the membership packages I opted for the $199 lifetime membership. I paid then, that was back in December 2020.
I received the certificate showing my membership, my profile link & log in information ; I edited my profile as instructed & uploaded my photo. I proceeded to check out the other members & found everything in order so I wasn’t the wiser then that it was a scam. Wouldn’t even know until I was contacted again today (February 8th, 2021 ) by this number +1 (718) 502-6773; informing me that they’ll be preparing my press release in a few days & what information i needed to provide on the form online to include in the press release for lifetime professional marketing and they would be charging my card $499US
That’s when it hit me that something was wrong, as I had already paid a lifetime membership of $199 which was said to come with everything, press release, marketing, etc. so I confronted the caller about this & she insisted it would have been communicated when I paid the $199, i insisted it wasn’t & told her I would not pay $499 and to cancel the membership. She then said she’d discount it to $299. I insisted I would not pay & that I’d cancel ; she then hung up.
I then researched reviews & found these, I contacted my bank to cancel my card & applied for a new one. I’m saddened that I paid that $199 but happy that I did not fall for another scam. Hope these reviews will help others like they helped me.
We should open up our own little group :)
