Thank you JM for all the advice and info you have given.  I have printed it off and will go through all the steps.  I have been harrased by them now for a week.  I did not ok this transaction, they got a person in my office to answer enough questions to make it sound like she could order this.  They are mean and intimidating - no real company would act this way. They faxed me a bill that showed I owed the $499.99 plus the $40 administration fee plus interest charges.  This is a scam!!!  Do not give them information, do not fall for their ****.

Phone directory scam

Phone directory scam

I have dealt with these scam artists for the last several weeks.  Same old story as everyone else. What I have is the solution to end this and some facts you need to know and what you should do:-This is a clear and dry directory listing scam.  Ignore their demands. All of them. -Try and get them to email you an invoice to a spam email account you use to review.  Once it is received, confirm the address on the invoice.As of right now, they are operating out of: 200 South ******ia Street 8th Floor, PMB-42Reno, NV 89501PLEASE BE AWARE, they do not physically call you from this location. (Calls come from 775, which is a vegas area code).  This is in fact a virtual office location. If you see a "PMB" or other initials that don't indicate a suite or another physical address, they are operating out of a virtual office just like this one. Now here is the facts:The virtual office is run by a company named "Regus" www.regus.com. They are a company that runs virtual offices around the country.  Link is here: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=6375581 ... 86&spn=0,0&z=16Regus do in fact have the REAL CONTACT INFORMATION for the owner of this company and not the bogus one they send you. It is possible to get this information through a subpoena if you choose to take this further. (and I would love to see someone do it and I will support them.)  Here is what you can do in the meantime:1. Call Regus' Reno location directly: (775) 686-2400.  Ask to speak with the Center Manager, (Her name is Wendy, but just ask for the manager and confirm later that it is her you are speaking to.) -Confirm that Yellow Local Directory is in fact one of their clients. -Tell them that you have been receiving harassing calls from this client for money and that they are trying to scam you and your company.-Tell the manager to contact their client and tell them to STOP CALLING YOU IMMEDIATELY OR YOU WILL SEEK LEGAL ACTION.-Tell the manager you will contact the Regus corporate  as well.2. Call Regus' Corporate Legal Office in Texas.  (972) 361-8100 x7. This number connects you with Michelle Hargus, head of Regus' Legal department.  If she does not answer, leave a message stating you want to report a client of theirs and leave a call number back. Keep leaving message if she does not return your call.3. Report the scammers to the FTC, local law enforcement, BBB, and get on the do not call list registry. This helps with pushing the government to get involved, and to stop further scammers from contacting you in the future.4. If the scammers call back, tell them you have done all of the following above and you won't get a single dime from you so stop trying AND STOP CALLING!I hope this helps some of you out. It seems to be the most productive way at this time. I HOPE THE SCAMMERS ARE READING THIS NOW. YOU WILL NOT WIN. WE WILL FIND YOU AND JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED!!! **** ON THAT.~JM

I got a call at the bakery that i work from some yellow pages company they sounded very profesioinal and they asked me all of these questions. later they called the bakery telling my boss that i authorized some internet advertisment. they then peiced together from an earlier conversation we had over the phone a recording of me saying that i authorized a $500 internet advertisment. i called back the "yellow pages" company at 1-888-509-2894 at ext.403 a Mark Jordan answered the phone i told im that this was fraud and that he cost me my job he cancelled the fees for the bakery. soon after his supervisor Candice Hawkins got on the phone and said they dont care if i turn them into the police and she said she would then turn the $500 amount into collections. If you get a call from these people DO NOT ANSWER!!!!! or give them any of your personal information...

Got a call from David Murphy as well. He played an altered phone recording and stated that a verbal agreement is valid.  Have filed complaint with BBB, FTC, and the FBI

Just got a call from Chris Davidson from 888-509-2894 in collections. Very bogus! Even altered voice authorization.

This caller claims to be a collection agency collecting for a Yellow Page ad called local directory, which is non exsistent in our city. He also faxes a phony bill. The company is out of reno,nv.The callers name is David Murphy. Watch out for this scam.
