Scam busted!

Blogging sometimes seems hardly worth it if you count by page views, but the number of people I’ve talked to along the way has made it enjoyable.

I received an email from the Canadian Competition Bureau, who investigates deceptive telemarketing. They were responding to my posting dated October 01/2002 about receiving phone calls from ecommerceregister.com.

Turns out they have filed charges against this company for deceptive telemarketing, among other things. Turns out there was a relationship with Hanson Publications, who used to keep calling wanting to “renew my directory listing”.

If you’ve been contacted by ecommerceregister, I’m sure the Canadian Competition Bureau would love to hear from you. Email me and I will get you in touch with the right people.
