Called and said that I owed for publication that I did not order. They called my business line.

Tried the same racket on me. Called my business line and said that because they knew my birthdate it was 'proof' I had subscribed.

Acted very indignant when we had hung up on them twice already today, telling them they were a scam outfit. Said they would keep calling until they spoke to someone. I was told there would be a lein placed against my company due to an unpaid invoice from April. I told her I had seen no such invoice so I could not vouch for the validity of the debt. She kept harping on how my employee was rude for calling her a scam artist, and not speaking to her.
I asked for proof of the invoice, and her answer was that several had been mailed to my company already. I responded that I would do nothing about the debt until I seen an invoice, and I would then look into it. Again she harped on how rude my employee was for intimating that she was a con artist.
I gave no indication that I would pay the bill.
When I checked with my employee, I found out that no publications had been ordered, and none were being received from "Progressive Business Publications" for "The Marketing Report" - the item detailed on the invoice she faxed to me.
We are going to call her and tell her if we receive any more phone calls we are referring the matter to the State's Attorney.

A woman from Internatioal Credit Recovery called regarding a past due debt.  "Jamie" informed me that we owed Progressive Publishing $306.72.  The nasty little [***] argued with me for about ten minutes until I exploded on her.  She claims I authorized the delivery of the so called publications because I gave them the date of my birth. "Jamie" also informed me that since I did not cancell my subscrition within 30 days, I am now responsible for the debt. Any moron can find your birthdate on the net!  I told her not to call back or send anything to me by mail.  Immediately after talking to her, I called the PA Attorney Generals office in Harrisburg, PA.  I also contacted my local District Attorney in Clarion, PA and filed a formal complaint. I don't know about you but I can assure you that I don't put up with this kind of crap!

Tried the same racket on me. Called my business line and said that because they knew my birth date it was 'proof' I had subscribed. I asked to have the invoice fax to me and nothing yet, said the invoice need to be paid today etc..
