In July 2009 I saw an advertisement on a Google ad page on the web that stated you can work from home and make up to $5000 per month and all I had to do was to pay $1.99 to get started. I did not see any other amount so I thought it was safe to use my credit card online, especially since it has SSL security. A few days later, my wife notices an amount of $69 deducted from my checking account, but I did not see no $1.99 deducted. At this point I was furious. I quickly called and cancelled. A few days later I was getting marketing companies calling asking if I wanted to use their ads. I told them I cancelled my account and they acted like they did not know what I was talking about. Each and every month I am still getting calls from these marketing companies. Now on October 07, 2009, my wife notices the amount of $29.95 deducted from my checking account. I called the number on my bank statement, 1-800-509-8479, which was connected to the name of VBL Alter Funds. I spoke with a woman that had her voice mechanically altered. She asked me for my name. At first I refused and wanted to know the name of her company. I could hardly understand what she said, but Marketing was in the name. I gave my first and last name and she confirmed my phone number (she read it off to me) and it was totally out of the ballpark, it was not it. She asked me for my correct personal information and I refused to give it. No matter what I said, she kept repeating for me to give her my information. I hung up the phone and called the FBI and reported it to them. The FBI said if enough people report this to them, they will act on it. So, Please report your experiences to your local FBI office so they can nab the scumbags. Thank you. Pat I.Y.A.A.Y.A.S.
