This letter is yet another dubious piece of work from these clowns -- "legal@demandlogix.com"? Yet another fake name and email address. I've received bankruptcy notices before... and they're not sent from "legal@bankruptCompanyNameHere.com" If it were really bankrupt we'd see a real legal notice from a real law firm and we'd be told in which court they declared bankruptcy.
This company has been a fraud from day one. It follows a history of deception -- from the use of fake or middle or maiden names (John Holtz = Wes Holtz = John Stroud married to Amanda Holtz = Amanda Gage) for every member of the company, to web sites that copy text from one another regardless of who the CEO is (see: www.accelesales.com and www.demandlogix.com), to references provided to us that were essentially friends and family or former or current co-workers acting as legitimate references.
It has been around in multiple forms as: B2B Marketing Group, Accelesales, Execufocus, Vekstar and other names.
Beware... they're likely to be back again ... under some other name
