Just got this call today, nothing makes sense, you gave a service free for two years and we have to pay to cancel? I asked her to send me an email with the information, "we don't do email, we do everything by phone" in 2012!?!?!? . Lastly I go to the yellow pages website and don't see our info, I ask her what the site is, and she tells me yellowpagesonline.net, which has incorrect and outdated info.
I mean this could be a good scam, but it's not executed properly, anyone with an ounce of logic will catch on quickly. No one calls you to see if you want to cancel a subscription of any kind EVER and no one gives you two years of anything valuable "free". Hope people don't get caught up in this.
Do not want people calling - scams, etc... please take my name off mailing list and telling me I owe something I don't. People need to get real jobs instead of stealing other people's money like this.
Same as previously reported. Yellow Pages online. Calling to update free listing or cancel. Told her to cancel. Said we owed $599 for 2 year program supposedly signed up for in 2010. Told her we don't ever do any online, yellow page or print advertising and would not have authorized that. She said someone from corporate office would contact me to confirm who signed up in 2010. I said OK...what is your name...she said Hailey Williams...how can I get back in touch with your company...she said 1-866-679-9976...googled # no info...asked where corporate located.... she said Delaware.
Definitely a scam...don't expect to hear from corporate office.
I got the same deal today at HOME!!! she tried to make it seem like she was calling about my internet listing with THE YELLOW PAGES - as in AT&T - we got past that, I kept asking her why she was calling me at home and not my office, she said this is the number you gave us - I said I would NEVER have used my home number - I have an OFFICE - told her to call me there, TEN times I had to tell her, she just kept saying my contract was going to get cancelled - VERY rude and then told me I was rude because I would not talk to her - I said BECAUSE I DO NOT DO BUSINESS FROM MY HOUSE - I DO SO FROM MY OFFICE.
Well I guess she didn't want to admit that she did not have my office number - so I gave it to her, she called when I had a client, tried to talk to her and tell her I never signed up or signed anything, she said I owed her for the 2nd of the two years, buy one get one free - NO WAY did I sign up for anything.
First I am a stockbroker - ALL 100% of my advertising has to be approved by my broker dealer, bus. cards - everything - so there is no way - told her I was with a client and hung up - my god she kept calling back I finally answered and said I AM WITH A CLIENT what is your number I will call you back, she kept saying she was always on the phone and I would never get thru and she will call me again.
And I am sure she will - how do we stop these people, who do we report them to? I am NOT paying them 599 bucks for something I did not authorize - my big fear is can this show up on our credit reports if we do not pay???? I want to see my signature or hear a recording of me agreeing to this, but I know I did not and I sure as hell did not give my home phone number out as a contact.
