I received a phone call on 9/9/08 from a Mike at "SRCLeads co"., to purchase leads. According to him, these leads were response from people through "ValPac" who were interested in buying Life Insurance. According to Mike, these people used their own dime to mail back their response requesting life insurance. Based on that declaration i made a purchase for 100 leads at $3 per lead (just to test their leads) He offered an additional 100 leads at $1 per lead, making a total of $400. I agreed and gave him my credit card authorizing the $400 purchase.
I asked for my receipt which he claimed he sent by email. No email came through so i requested it by fax, that was when i noticed a $410 charge, i called him on it and he apologized. After paying for the leads, which i expected instantly, i waited a good while and there was no leads so i called him and ask for my eads: it was at that time he informed me that i would get it within 3-4 days becausing they are scrubbing them against the"no call list" i said tha't won't do so he offered to put a "rush" on them.
I now realize that this guy's credibility was at risk, and becoming suspicious, i called him the following day 9/10/08 and told him to cancel the order. He said that it is on it's way within a short while i received a list of names of 200 people. I contacted the first 4 people on the list using the information he gave me about how the list was obtained, three people hanged the phone up, the fourth had no idea about what i was talking about. I realize that I WAS HAD.
Before I contacted Mike i noticed that along with the names of people there was a "Script": upon reading the script I notice that the information on tthe script was contrary to what i was told, which was the basis for the sales. What i bought was not what i received, It was clearly a "bait and switch"
I immediately sent a certified letter to the president of the company. He did not respond. Which leads me to conclude that he subscribes to the same principle.
