Yet Another Scam For Lead Generators
Hey all,
I know we all get bored of this after awhile, but here is another scam that was posted on Professional Remodeler. http://www.housingzone.com/proremodeler/blog/1350000335/post/1240039924.html Just wish someone would make the lead generation business be a little more classy without so much of this going on. I guess I wouldn’t care as much if I could pay for what is actually done and not be pulled into buying leads and keeping my fingers crossed.

Re: Yet Another Scam For Lead Generators
How Tacky.
Ed Thursday, January 29, 2009 Scam alert - Everycontractor.com Jan 29 2009 8:28AM | Permalink | Email this | Comments (1) | Blog This! using: Blogger.com | LiveJournal | Here's something you need to know about: Everycontractor.com, an online lead generation site, is calling around to contractors posing as customers to get people to sign up for the site. (h/t to Ed Cholfin of Advanced Kitchens who posted about this on LinkedIn) Apparently, the way it works is they tell you they need a kitchen, bathroom, etc., remodeled, then once they get you on the phone try to sell you on their referral service. They'll come on your caller ID as 888-326-0653. I can't speak to the quality of their service, but pulling these kind of tactics to get people to sign up tells me this isn't a company you want to be involved with. Here are a few remodelers talking about their experiences with the company: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-888-326-0653/2 http://www.callercomplaints.com/SearchResult.aspx?Phone=888-326-0653 http://whocallsme.com/Phone-Number.aspx/8883260653 You can find more with a simple Google search. Reader Comments at 2/3/2009 1:41:05 PM, everycontractor.com said: Check out Ripoffreport.com and do a search on everycontractor.com there you will find 40 complaints about this company ,if thats not enough then you deserve what you get.
