Got the call today, but only dead air on the mail box before a hang up click. Ironically attended a professional seminar today, part of which was put on by a very intelligent gentleman from N.H. whose business is setting up networking, computer crash problem solving, etc. We all know the "Google" scam has been around for a long while; just many different numbers, locations, & ID's. There is no way anyone could promise a business to be listed first on Google; Google themselves can't!
I.e.; if you have more than one computer (like we do having 4), depending on what the computers are used for & what sites are searched, you will get different priority listings on each of them if you search the same thing! Google, as well as Face Book & others, all know the IP addresses; any current search from that IP will be listed based on previous site history!
Take that scammers; there is no way you can guarantee for any price unless you purchase all the Google stock! Just your basic "BUYER BEWARE!" Don't purchase, sign up for or anything else from a cold call to you; DEFINITELY DON'T GIVE OUT ANY PERSONAL INFO AT ALL!
I have been in business for nearly 40 years & would never buy anything from a 'cold' call coming to me; if you answer such calls (which we don't), ask them to send you any information in the mail to look over & check out. Of course don't give them your snail mail address as supposedly they should know it, "knowing you have not updated the Google listing"!
