Complaint Review: Dotlessdomain.com

Was contacted on FTC-registered "do-not-call" cellphone while on out-of-state business trip and asked if I had access to a computer. After an affirmative answer, I was asked to go to www.dotlessdomain.com where I was guided to numerous gimmicky webpages including a Los Angeles Better Business Bureau website for about two hours while I was handed off between three female telemarketers.

I was very reluctant and saying no until the second person told me she had been in contact with numerous YTB referring travel agents like me and convinced me to charge my AMEX $2895 as a business investment which I would more than recoup through my websites. My computer would not download the required tool bar software, so I was handed off to a third person who finally advised me that a tech rep would get back with me in a few days.

After I hung up, I decided to try one last time to download the software before I shut down my computer by saving it instead of running it; my computer told me to immediately shut it down to stop a trojan virus from entering, which I did. After restarting it and running a complete scan, I immediately called AMEX to report the scam with hopes of recovering my money.

I have since filed complaints with the FTC and the Nevada Attorney General Office of Consumer Protection as well as continuing to work with AMEX to get my money back.
