InTouch Lead Solutions, Inc. ClosePoint LLC Avoid John Conrad aka John Westcott Houston / Baytown TX

This is a fake client/customer lead service. They keep changing their name. As of December 2014, it looks like they changed from ClosePoint LLC, or Close-Point LLC, or even Close-Pointe Holdings LLC, to "InTouch Lead Solutions, Inc."
Note that none of these are real corporations or LLCs, or even legal D/B/A/s.

How can you be sure a company isn't real? Check with the state's Secretary of State website.

This is a very simple scam. They promise you an unbelievable b2b cold call, lead generation, or appointment-setting service. E.g., if you are a sales person selling a technology solution, they claim that for X dollars they will set Y guaranteed appointments, and even that they will result in a sale, or your money back. As they say, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. They will ask for an upfront payment, and simply not deliver. You then have no recourse, since they are a fake company, with no real address.

They claim to have an office in Houston, in the Williams Tower ((((Redacted))), Houston TX (((Redacted))), however this is the address for a virtual office company, Serv Corp. So they use that address sort of like a PO Box. They similarly list another virtual office at (((Redacted))) Dallas TX (((Redacted))).
