Called our business in Canada to inform us that we are being sued for a phone pages subscription. They say they have a recording of someone who agreed to the contract verbally over the phone. After discussing this with them they seem to think they can email you a copy of a conversation and collect for subscriptions on phone books they sent out before ever contacting anyone. They first send you the books and call to confirm that you received them, when you say, "yes" that's what they use to confirm you are in a contract. This is a shakedown on the most basic level! Caller name was Johnnie Richards who said she was based out of Montreal and was actually calling from Louisiana.

Calling to collect for the scam artists phone pages in Montreal Canada?

They are calling a number of Canadian business owners and pretending to be lawyers trying to collect on behalf of Ad-Ventures Publishing Inc.

I have filed a complaint with the BBB and will be sending a copy of the phone call to the California Atorney Generals office to have them investigated for implying they are a legal firm.

I will also be filing a complaint with the FCC.

 Collection agency for yellowbbook. Keeps calling my business even though they have NO license to collect a debt in my state. Doesn't care about laws concerning debt collectors even after a cease and desist letter and even after they were notified that they had to have a license in order to collect from a debtor in my state, it is the law.
