Internet Local Listings I assumed they were part of Google and I am getting a 5 page website created for me along with a 5 area local listings. I had to give 50 keywords. The sales mgr is Troy and the IT person is Ki Apache Junction Internet
I got a phone call from a man named Troy on March 24th stating he could get my website on the first page of Google, Yahoo, Bing and some other website. He offered a package which included a FREE 5 page website and that Internet Local Listings can get me started right away. He told me it was $179.99 for the first month and for the rest of the months it would be 129.00 and taken out of my debit card on the 24th of each month. I looked at their website and it was a real website and seemed kosher. I signed some sort of contract but I was not given proper time to read it. They seemed like they were in such a hurry which made me nervous. But, I was in the perfect position to have a 5 page website creatHe said it is a local package that I would choose 5 local cities nearest me as well as 10 keywords and this would be done by a woman named Kim from IT. After giving this man my debit card and back three numbers, I was transferred to her. She seemed in a hurry and wanted me to quickly come up with the five cities - I had to get a map and see which cities would be best. Then she asked what keywords I want for my business. This is something that takes time and she was not giving it. I quickly just thought up some keyword names whether they were good or not.
So, a few days went by and I never received any information for my website. What I wanted on the website and who was doing this. I tried to contact Kim and gave her a voice mail and asked if she would get back to me as soon as possible, I would appreciate it. Then I tried my Acct. Mgr Troy. Same thing, it goes straight to voice mail. This is when I really started to panic. I forwarded Kim a website I had been working on and I told her this should help her and the website team greatly because the 5 page website was what I had pretty much finished. Still no answer.
I stil have no returned -phone calls and that's when I started looking up their information and seeing the RipOff Report on them. The Government needs to be involved in this. I think I may be the lucky one because I am just out the initial $179.99 but my bank said that if the Government is involved, I may even get that back.
I had to close out my debit card number and get a temporary one while my new one comes in the mail. BIG lesson learned here. No matter how authentic their site seems, they hire slick people to scheme you just when you are considering marketing your business, etc.
Please watch out for Internet Local Listings - they are definitely Rip Off Professionals.
