      I received an email from this society, never having heard of it before and assumed it was a scam. Upon doing my own research through ******, ****** Reviews, and BBB I concluded on my own it is a scam. As someone mentioned in the complaints, the address is strange and yes it is related to the business because if you lie about the address, why not lie about something else?Besides the address issue, there are countless reviews and complaints on not just BBB, but ****** and other websites like Reddit where college students either were charged more than the $95 or did not receive the mentoring services at all. Most other societies do not charge money like that either. These comments also noted that some who were "nominated" did not meet the eligibility requirements that are on the website of the ****, making it more clear it is a money grab.On top of the payment issues, this "society" is not BBB Accredited and I think the mentor page on their website alone explains why. They list a mentor from ********************, which was shut down in December 2022 for bankruptcy and lost accreditation. They list another mentor of a company called "Upside Door" which is found nowhere on ******. They also list a news anchor who by their personal social media accounts, left the TV channel. Every aspect of this education business here seems sketchy and like a scam and from my own research I would hope my review can help others to avoid being scammed like other complaints that have been posted.

      I am Angel Tomlin, and I have unfortunately fallen victim to a situation where this company has taken money from me without providing any means of contact. I strongly advise everyone to steer clear of this organization. If I am not promptly issued a full refund for the amount I paid, I will be left with no choice but to file a fraud claim with my bank. I will also, make post on TikTok and Facebook waring people of this as well as contacting schools to warn students of this.

      Thank you.

      I was scammed into thinking that I would receive opportunities in job postings, but it was nothing helpful and outdated. I want a refund to my account for this

      I was invited by this company through my student email, despite my GPA being below 3.5. Curious, I started googling. I found their BBB complaints where they repeatedly asserted that they were the official honor society for all colleges in question. So I cross checked my own college’s site. They’re mentioned nowhere. So I searched the honor society ACTUALLY mentioned on my college website-Phi Theta Kappa. Which, unsurprisingly, requires a 3.5 GPA and is invite only. The fact that they were clearly scamming me tells me all I need to know about their dealings in other campuses. They’re openly lying right on the BBB website.
