Insight Marketing Solutions InsightMarketingSolutions.com First they send you an invoice for service you have not ordered .... Calais, Maine

Today, a woman from accounting walks in my office and hands me a faxed invoice from Insight Marketing Solutions. Right away I recognized the name. They have sent invoices in the past for $379.99 for their "US Business Registry Listing" service which I have generally thrown in the trash. It's not an advertisement, it is an invoice with all kinds of official looking details trying to make you believe that you owe them money when in reality they are just trying to get you to sign up for their service. I know first hand that we would not subscribe to such a listing since we are a manufacturer and don't deal with the general public. Anyway, this one was different because a gentleman from Insight Marketing Solutions called our accounting deparment asking why we have not paid our late bill. Well interestingly enough, he stated that one of our employees by name had authorized the service. I looked at the invoice and this time there was indeed one of our employees name as the contact and even a name of the woman in accounting as accounts payable. The employees have neither authorized anything and the employee that supposedly authorized it is a secretary to our licensing director who would have possibly answered the phone if this guy had called. In addition, the whois lookup of the website gives you Domains by Proxy hidden details so it's obvious they don't want you to know who they actually are. I did some searching the net and did not see people complaining about it online likely because it gets faxed even though it's for an internet service. I am hoping this gets picked up by the net and put at the top of the search list so when someone else from another company gets an invoice and wants to know who the company is and what they are trying to do.
