I have been approached by High Beam Global Knowledge to join their Expert Panel.

After weeks of calls from an number based in India, I was finally 'caught' when they called me from a mobile.

I completed a (long) questionairre for them over the phone in relation to Fall Restraint when using Elevated Platforms. (I'm always happy to give my opinion if it is going to help others).

Is anyone else on this Expert Panel and is it beneficial, or is it simply a way for them to pester you with more market research?

Kindest Regards,

Why so angry?

It is connected to the forum because I am looking to see if other professionals on here have been approached.

If it turns out they are legitimate, I will join their Expert Panel and assist in future H+S research. If it is a marketing ploy, I'll tell them to do one.

It is connected to occupational safety as the question set I answered was related to Fall Restraint in Elevated Platforms (as I stated in my message).

I used words like 'caught' and 'pestered', so not sure exactly what you read that made you thought I was promoting them!

Thank you achrn, and to those who have messaged me privately,

I appreciate, in hindsight, the title may be a little misleading, but by reading the content it would have been clear (I hope) that it was a genuine request.

I am a Chartered Member and regularly sit on IOSH Peer Panels, so I am a little offended that I would be considered a scammer.

If my research answers have saved one life, then it must have been worth it, right?

However, the referred company are quite relentless with emails and telephone calls (I have not given them any of my details, by the way), which leads me to believe that they are not the most professional of businesses, so have decided not to join their Expert Panel, and blocked them on all media.
