I just had the same type of call come to my office. If I had not pulled up this website while I was still on the phone with them, they might have succeeded in their little scheme. I am curious to know, where is everyone from? I got this call in Marietta, GA.
The caller had an Indian accent and wanted my wife to confirm her business address, location and e-mail for him. He asked if she wanted to renew. Fortunately the line went dead before any additional information was provided. Callback to the caller id number went to a full voice mail box.
They called again about five minutes later. "Peter" advised he was from "The American Yellow Pages" and his website is www.goamericanyellow.com. Peter could not provide his employee number nor could he provide a callback number. He said the phone number he was calling from should come up on my caller ID and I am welcomed to call him anytime. However, he was unable or did not desire to provide a direct phone number to call him. After nine requests for his call back number and business license numbers, Peter Disconnected.
The page info and page source of the internet page did not provide me any information about the identity of the person or its creating company. To the person that was billed: please post the billing address of this yellow page listing service. The checks have to get to somebody in some manner.
info only: do not use your own ip address when going to this page. Mask it or use an untraceable ip address.
Thanks Manny. That website naturally doesn't have a contact phone #, but I did a bit more searching, and the company is GOAM Media.
Their number is 866-697-0539. Don't know whether the calls will actually stop, but I did get a live (and helpful-sounding) person on the phone who said he'd take the number off their calling list.
(I called from the number they'd been trying to reach, so it's not as if they didn't already have the #.)
Note to everyone: BE POLITE! Yes, they are a bunch of useless scam artists, but the longer we're polite to them, the longer they'll keep that phone number, and that way more people can get their numbers removed.
these people who are calling are not americans, they sound more like
asian or indian. they continue to call even when told not to. they
insist on speaking to the manager and 2 of them than talk with a very
foreign accent. when their phone is dialed, there is a recording.
