Ok. So it says free, but really, what in life is free?
We owe it to ourselves to spend a little time to research companies before we provide them with our information.
As consumers, we need to be ever mindful of the reality of identity theft and internet scams. Just think, when you visit chat rooms, are you totally honest with people you have never seen? Don't you fudge a little?
We need to assume that we are being ripped off and proceed carefully from there... an investment of a few minutes now will save us a lot of grief later.... use trusted sites like this to gather information before you give away yours. I checked out these people first with Google - all the references were "relatives"; then with Macafee - they got a clean bill but I was not happy because my experience is if it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, chances are it really is a duck.
So I came to the Ripoffreport, and voila! Not only did I find this report, but, thanks to the original post, I now know that these people are professionals, who seem to just keep changing their name, dancing one step ahead of the law ... The question is, how do we stop them and others of their ilk?
Thanks Ripoffreport for providing such a necessary service!
