Comcast
Flyer Offered Cable Under Fake Names and Social Security Numbers

I saw a flyer that said "Got cable? Do you need cable? No matter the issues you had in the past... Call 781-866-1314". I owe Comcast over $500.00 in past bills and was shut off due to non-payment. I am on SSDI and got behind because rent and food comes first.

I saw this ad and called and spoke to "Nicole" who claimed to be a sub-contractor for Comcast and she could get people Cable, Internet and Phone Service even with bad credit and past bills to Comcast. It sounded good to me so I had given her my address to set up service. She told me she would call me back.

I got a call back from Nicole that evening and then she told me the way this works she said "I make up simple names and fake social security numbers and since I enter the orders in the computer, Comcast does not ask me to verify anyone's identity". I felt very uneasy about the situation but I needed cable television. She said once she completed the order she would call me again.

She called me the following day with this information " You will use the name Kevin Cross and the last four digits of this ss#. You will have service under this name and remember to always use that name and last 4 digits when communicating with Comcast." She gave me a due date.

I waited for the due date, NO COMCAST. I called Comcast and they told me that the name given was not on my mail box and that a disconnected phone number was on the order the got. I told them to cancel the service.

I tried to no avail to call Nicole and told her what happened and she has not returned a phone call to me. Now Comcast will NOT install any services in my apartment because she set this up.

I left Nicole numerous messages including that I would turn her in to the Attorney Generals Office and the police and she is still advertising this to the City of Chelsea and Chelsea is a below average to medium average income city.

Something must be done to stop this woman and make it publically known about this.

Her number is 781-866-1314 ask her about her services.
