I received an email about one week ago telling me that my credentials had been evaluated and I was selected to receive their recognition award, but in order to receive the recognition I would need to become a member. I clicked on the previous "publications" and then went to the website. I did not click on the membership link because I questioned the legitimacy of the organization. I decided to search the internet to see if it were a scam and saw this information on the Better Business Bureau website.

They are literally selling awards for $500, and if you "purchase" your
"award" they take 20 minutes to create a flattering bio for you. Ridiculous.

I received a similar email via my work email address from someone stating their name was Alexis Miller stating that I was nominated as one of the "Top 50 Women Leaders." I was also requested to pay a $495 membership fee. This came to my work email. When I asked if we could set up a time to discuss, I received a very verbose and unctuous reply about my impressive credentials and how the organization is so short staffed that an phone conversation was not feasible.

I also could not find an Alexis Miller on any professional website, including LinkedIn.

I am reporting this to my employer's IT department as a phishing scam.

Beware!

WWA sent me an email naming me as a finalist for the "Top 50 Women Leaders in Utah". The email is below, but to receive the award I was asked to pay a $495 membership fee. When I replied asking about the details of my nomination I got a vague, copied and pasted answer. When I pressed for more information, I received no reply. You shouldn't ever have to pay for an award; the idea of being a top 50 leader is great but this award is a fluke.

The email: "We wanted to let you know that you, [XXX] have been selected as a finalist for The Top 50 Women Leaders of Utah for 2023. Our selections were based on a methodical review of women executives and leaders across the area. You were identified and your career track record up to and including your current leadership position was further reviewed.

I could not speak to anyone to get answers on the award, why I was selected and its background. It could not send me a PO or invoice but only accept my credit card.
We must, especially as women in business, ensure we are not targeted. I hope this program is taken down and the true recognition of successful women in business increases with legitimate awards and rewards.
