Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation.
To be accredited by BBB, a business must apply for accreditation and BBB must determine that the business meets BBB accreditation standards, which include a commitment to make a good faith effort to resolve any consumer complaints. BBB Accredited Businesses must pay a fee for accreditation review/monitoring and for support of BBB services to the public.

...if they were in good standing, then they would have responded to the BBBs attempts to contact them, wouldn't they? Plus, you completely blew by what William found when he Googled them:
"Thanks for the name of the business.
I will look them up on the Internet.

And Google says : "This site may harm your computer."
I received a call from this number today. This thread is a year old. We know the offending company; we know their address; we know their M.O.; they have a long line of complaints from the BBB; the BBB has contacted them but has received no response; and they have a documented record of cheating people, violating the DNC Registry, committing crimes, and screwing up computers.
So, why hasn't the FTC done anything? Anyone care to enlighten us?
