New Tricks At The Old Scam
David Werner swindled me out of $37,000.00 and like the many other victims (clients), I lost time and damaged my reputation in the process. I learned the hard way about this scam and the con artist who is running it, Davis Werner. This rip-off is now attempting to change the public opinion and his fortune through a number of self promoting articles, new “services” and con tricks they have recently added to the old scam.David Werner International is now baiting their “clients”, marks as they are called in the con business, with something called “Online Portfolios”. This is nothing more than creating a personal website, from a number of standard temples, and hosting it on servers owned by Power Talent Network, a company operating out of Boca Raton, FL. David Werner International has an agreement, with Power Talent Network, to remarket their software under DWIC name. For this privilege the victim, will be charged a website creation fee and an annual hosting fee. Any client, who is naïve enough to pay for something like this, will get pages and pages of useless statistics like; the number of hits on the site, the time of day, what pages were viewed, etc., etc., etc. All of it is useless information which gives the victim, loads of useless data but which will not get anybody closer to a new job. Actually, having a personal site will very much be working against your chances of getting a new assignment. Ask yourself - what any of the top 1000 corporation in US would think about an executive with a personal website advertising his or her stuff on the Internet? The last thing they need is yet another self promoting “Prima Dona” with aspiration to publicity. If they needed something like this they would go directly to Hollywood and talk to Paris Hilton or any other Hollywood clown. The last thing they need in their executive staff is a person with publicity aspirations. Rest assured that if a company like Wal-Mart, or Exxon Mobil, or GE, of IBM, or Philip Morris would give some new executive a new assignment, the first thing they would want to do is control his or her communication with the outside world. And the very first thing they would want to do is to turn off any personal websites. Unfortunately for the new executive who was just hired, the problem with the Internet is that data published remains available forever and can not be erased or hidden from the public. The con artist, David Werner, should know this as he claims great knowledge about marketing on the Internet. The truth is Werner is more ignorant about the Internet than any 90 year old grandmother. Actually, we could probably find several 90 year old grandmothers who are quite knowledgeable about the Internet and marketing on it which is much more than we could say about David Werner.The second addition to the David Werner scam is their desire to become a mergers and acquisition broker. Werner has made some statements, on the Internet and which will now be there forever, about his ability and desire to provide M&A broker services to his “clients”, victims. The reality, and what he again is ignorant about, is the fact that he would need to have an FTC license to be an M&A broker. Werner would go to jail if he attempted to provide any services which could be interpreted as brokering services in an M&A transaction without an FTC license. It is also true that the disclosure process, which would be a prerequisite to obtaining an FTC license, would expose the scam and him being a con artist. David Werner or his company, David Werner International, could never obtain an FTC license. He might be able to make a backroom deal with somebody who already has such a license however, that person will soon after either lose the license or go to jail upon further investigation by FTC.The bottom line is – Don’t get involved with this scam! If you value your reputation, if you expect to someday be employed by any of the top 1000 US corporations, and most of all if you value your money, don’t get involved with this scam and the con artist David Werner. Don’t get involved or you will learn the hard way and destroy your reputation in the process. After dealing with David Werner retirement is your next stop! When you get there this about all the cash you put in David Werner’s pocket!
