Alyon Technologies Inc slime-ball deceptive Company took advantage of teenager Norcross Georgia
Like many others, I received a bill from alyon Technologies stating that my phone had been used to access an internet porno sight. When I called they said that someone had hit the "I ACCEPT" button and not only entered the sight but donwloaded their dialer. When I spoke to my son about this he said it popped up on his screen and when he tried to get rid of it, it took him directly to the sight. He tried to get off and it would not let him without shutting down his computer. Everytime he got online after that , it took him directly to the sight. I had to remove the dialer from his computer to stop it. Alyon Technologies is nothing but a (censored)company and should be shut down. I am refusing to pay the bill I got for $115. And I urge anyone else (censored)by these (censored) to do the same. There has to be a way to stop these immoral people from these kinds of "business" practices.

ALYON TECHNOLOGIES DECEPTION
#3Consumer Suggestion
Wed, February 19, 2003
It seems Alyon's main defense is that pressing "I ACCEPT" or "I AGREE" (in whatever method or manner that option was presented to you) binds the user to a contract.
However, I know many if not all states require a "meeting of the minds" or "full consent" for a contract to be valid. Perhaps victims can approach this from that perspective. Further, I am wondering how legal it is to download something onto your personal computer, without your consent or knowledge, in the first place.
I myself have been a victim and am pouring over any documents I can find on contract law and cyberspace/internet law in order to fight Alyon Technologies. Communications law might also be worthwhile to look over.

I recommend the following if and when you receive a bill from Alyon Technologies of Norcross Georgia

2. Go to your Attorney General Eliot Spitzer's website and file a complaint. http://www.oag.state.ny.us/
3. Go to the Federal Trade commission web site and file a complaint. http://www.ftc.gov
4. The BBB of Atlanta will probably be of no real assistance to you. Read other complaints about Better Business Bureau.
5. File a complaint with your long distance phone carrier.
6. Finally,I suggest you write a letter to the Mayor of Norcross, Georgia
