Global Contact Inc.

James of Vineyard Haven, MA September 8, 2009

On September 5, 2009 I received an invoice from Global Contact, Inc. for $145 for a listing in their 2010 "Directory of US Companies". Review of my records showed paid invoices and copies of signed requests to be listed in their directory from September of 2004 and September of 2005. I could find no record of any interaction with this company since - I have no record of any request by me for any listing, nor any payment for any listing subsequent to September 2005.

I sent a letter to them pointing this out, refusing to pay the invoice. I have sent copies of their invoice and my letter to both the Massachusetts Attorney General's office and the mail fraud division of the U.S. Postal Office.

January 2009 received a form to update our company's listing in The NAFTA Register. FREE, no fee or charge listed. End of February was faxed an invoice for $145 with a copy of our signature page that had been altered, now stating "by signing this form you are authorizing. your company will be invoiced.

I fell for the Global Contact/Directory of U.S. Companies scam. When billed, and threatend, I contacted my lawyer who advised I just ignore them. I did so and found the problem simply went away. They carried through on none of their threats and actually sent me another solicitation the following year.
