Alyon is sending me a bill for accessing/entering an adult web site in the state of New Jersey. They can't explain who or how permisson was given or who acessed.

Alyon claims that the site was accesed from my computerand I owe money. The billing letter has no phone number or contact number or email. There is no information on how to contact Alyon or the phone line in new Jersey. They simpley want 498.00 from me.

I haven't send them any money. I don't intend to but they are threatening to send me to a collection agency. There is no way to dispute charges.

What do I do?

I have never authroized any service or method payment on line. I never give out social security, numbers, cedit card info. etc.

Alyon Technologies Stephane Touboul, Maria McAllister ,Tina Whitfield working with criminals, child endangering, computer hackers, breaking COPPA law

AUTHOR: Gregory - (U.S.A.)

Jan,

You are not in this situation alone.

I suspect no one in your home did anything wrong and my narrative will explain why.

These criminals have no conscience and are targeting children and people who happen to surf through one specific website that I know of. There are probably more.

Maria McAllister of Alyon Technologies say in a letter 'that any parent that allows their child to accidently or intentionally enter an ADULT website does not utilize parental controls. So therefore, the parent allowed the minor child to surf adult sites and as long as it didn't cost money then it was okay.' Those are her words.

Then McAllister goes on to say, 'the Internet is an ADULT tool and has never been meant for children.'

Alyon Technologies, why did you put your advertising on Kazaa.com which is primarily a child/teenage website?

Because Alyon Technologies is targeting children like I've said from the beginning.

I went to Kazaa when I was writing this on 01-28-03 for another report. It was my first visit to this site. I wanted to see for myself if it was a teen site and it is. I got a lot of pop-up ads, nothing that was an obvious adult one. I did not hit any prompt while at Kazaa.

I disconnected from the internet ran my NortonWorks program and found some changes had been made to my Windows registry. I ran a Virus scan also and nothing showed up. Cleared all cookies, cache and temporary files.

However, when I reconnected to the Internet and opened Internet Explorer I got an Adult pop-up that opened and asked if I was 18 asking me to hit a prompt to an Adult site. It was a small pop-up ad.

Unbelievable!

That prompt was still on my hard drive.

This is the first and last time I will go to kazaa.com because it was the only website that I had gone to prior to exiting the Internet.

Ms. McAllister says 'the dialer software causing a virus is a total fabrication'.

You got it wrong I said the Mini-dailer is the VIRUS! (computer hacking)

Ms. McAllister says 'The Electronic Group and Alyon has a Microsoft Trusted publisher certificate for this software.'

'That means that Microsoft has inspected this software and has found it contains no viruses and is a valid piece of software and authenicated by Microsoft.' (Alyon Technologies words)

If it looks like a virus, smells like a virus and acts like a virus, it's a VIRUS!

On that note my settings require that I be notified if my dial-up is being switched. The box that says 'Ask before switching Dial-Up connections has always been check marked.' So this software defeated that as well.

By the way I have parental controls in place and did in Oct. 2002. My wife and I have to put our password in for ICRA and RSACi web access, Nudity and Sexual Material were locked. But the adult pop-up add I got yesterday on Jan 27 ,2003 got around it. Alyon's mini-dialer got around that as well back in October 2002.

Integrel, Inc and eBillit, Inc said the same thing Alyon Technologies says until thousands complained to the FTC and they were found guilty of 'slamming' and fined $1.6 M. It took the FTC 2 years.

I don't feel like waiting another two years to get an answer to the same criminal behavior.

A self installing piece of software being put into anyone's computer without consent is NOT acceptable. I don't care who Alyon Technologies thought they got their approval from!

Microsoft may have said something about the software. Probably not in the context Alyon Technologies is using it in.

Further, anyone that uses Microsoft products knows they require constant patches and product modifications. But, this is not about Microsoft.

This is about a company named Alyon Technologies pushing pornography onto minors and other unknowing individuals then billing it to the phone number in an attempt to avoid the issue of who they trapped.

This company is criminal and trying to extort money.

Ms. McAllister, Stephane Touboul, and Tina Whitfield are Child-Endangering, Law-Breaking, Just-Gotta-Make-A-Buck-Off-Some-Victim-At-Any-Cost kind of people.

Any parent who sends in their child's birth certificate to this company to try to get charges removed are putting themselves in jeopardy. Next they will want your family tree.

Alyon Technologies is not a government agency and cannot demand a copy of a birth certificate.

Even if a minor did lie about age a contract with a minor is still invalid.

Alyon Technologies wants people to prove there is a minor in their home.

No one has to prove there is a minor in their home. In fact, this adds to the Invasion of Privacy issue.

You don't have to prove anything to these criminals.

A MINOR CANNOT ENTER INTO A BINDING CONTRACT!

Check to see that the Alyon software is removed from your computer.

Go to your START menu, hit FIND, type in iedisco.exe. If it comes up delete it.

Then click on MY COMPUTER, DIAL-UP NETWORKING, and look for an ICON other then your normal one. It is usually identified as mini-dialer. DELETE IT!

To protect you for now I recommend the following:

Write a Certified letter with return receipt to Alyon Technologies disputing the charges. This is very important because it establishes a record of your dispute.

Also, if you want call 201-865-7600 the number to Alyon in New Jersey and tell them that you deny all knowledge of anyone using their website'.

It might not be a bad idea for you to contact your local police since this is EXTORTION.

Then I suggest you do the following:

1. Go to Attorney General's website for your state and file a complaint.

2. Go to the Federal Trade commission's web site and file a complaint. http://www.ftc.gov

3. File a complaint with the IFCCFBI
