"You've Been Considered for Inclusion in Who's Who 2018 Network" Scam

Try as I might, I can’t get these emails to stop - the unsubscribe doesn’t lead to anything but another scam website. The email and contact they are addressing was only used for one place - Anthropologie to buy a wedding dress so I’m guessing they are the ones who sold the contact email info.

I got the scam email on 11/07/2019 so this is still an active scam. Don't respond, they're trying to get your personal information and money (the eventual goal of all those scams).

I found the "who's who" email caught by my Gmail spam folder along with a couple others from vi2software.com. However, the email they used was a unique one only shared with Country Financial. I run on a Chromebox ChromeOS, so I am assuming COuntry Financial gave away my email or lack security, how else would vi2software get a one time email?

Do they automatically get your information just by clicking the link via portal or do they get your information by you actually having to type your info on some online form?

You will have to type in the information.
