I too was contacted by Kipling's Who's Who.  It's nothing more than a marketing scheme, worthless.

I recieved a call from someone who identified himself as Richie Strauss of Kiplings who's who. He congratulated me for being included in the directory and proceeded to confirm our not for profit organization's contact information.He asked me for my correct ***le, what my job entailed, what set me apart from others in my field and where I saw myself in 5 years.He then s****ed the sales pitch and tried to get credit card info or a checking number.When I stated that this would have to be presented to my board and asked for printed materials to be sent to me he stated there is none.  As he saw I wasn't going along with the prices he was giving me for membership he offered me a certificate for $99.  He said if my board won't do it I should put it on my personal credit card which I said I don't have. He said I should give my checking account info which I stated I wouldn't do over a phone and he offered to have fed-ex come pick up a check tomorrow.In hind site I should have had them send fed-ex and not answered the door.I asked for the web site address which he had to find and when I asked for the corporate headquarters address, he stated 735 Commack Rd, Commack NY... which is not what is even on the web-site. The phone number given was 631-243-0202 ext 113Obviously a credible business would know their address and website and they would also have information to send****ential members.I would not give information and did a web search while I was on the phone with this person so I was aware it was probably a scam.If it makes anyone out there feel any better... I annoyed the***** out of this guy with all my questions and he ***g up frustrated and very aggitated.

I received a call from this number while at work this afternoon.  I let it go to voicemail being that I didn't recognize it.  The woman left a very courteous, but suspecious sounding message, stating she was from a kipling so****ing and so****ing firm, and asked that I call her back at a specific extension.  After listening to it twice, I deleted it, for it sounded like bill collectors or private investigators, the one's who leave ***ue messages trying to get you to call back, and I have no one sear****g for me.
