I was a victim of the same scam that everyone else has been hit with by PPC. Here is what I found out the past three weeks and what YOU need to do.
PPC operates out of Fort Worth Texas and Bedford NH yet there long distance phone number is out of Salt Lake City Utah. After getting a bill for $185.00 I called them several times and last night I got though and talked to a man by the name of Mike. He looked up my account and told me that all the charges have been taken off. He then told me how I need to clean the computer to get the software off the computer that PPC put on to connect me to the UK phone numbers. One needs to wipe off all your software clean the hard disk and reload all the software back onto the computer. He then said put parental blocks on adult sites and put a long distance block on your phone. I must say I thought this guy was going to be a problem but he told me PPC is taking off many charges off clients bills because they now feel that more information about the software should have been released to the victims.
Here is what you need to do as the victim of this fraud.
Call or write to the Postmaster General, the FCC, the FBI, the BBB in Fort Worth (how already has over 200 complaints about PPC) the BBB in Bedford NH, the Bedford Police Dept., the three credit companies start with Experian, local newspapers and TV stations, the State where you live Attorney General Office and make sure you sent a letter or two to PPC explaining the actions you are taking.
Disconect your internet service ASAP and your put a long distance block on your phone. Keep a file of all documents you send any of these agencies and PPC.
Good Luck
