Tiffany Lewis called to say she was from collections at Yellow Pages.
She said an employee authorized $599 for listing and it was going to collections. We do not advertise in the yellow pages. No employee has authorization to spend money on the company's behalf. No invoices had been sent prior to this. On top of this, every time they have called in the past, I have requested being taken off the call list.
She claimed to have a recording, but since we put together animations for a living, we know how easy it is to get someone to say yes in answer to a question, then apply it within a recording. We also know that it is easy to cut out phrases like, "only the owner has authorization" or "I can't authorize expenditures."
This scenario follows the scripts on the scam reports to the letter.
