Once you log onto the site the ask you to enter your credit card number to purchase your plaque or crystal award starting at $149.00. I tried calling to find out more about the award, but kept getting a voice mail. I left a message but never received a returned phone call.

This appears to be a way to sell people plaques saying that you are the best of something. My staff researched the award and learned that there will be no award program and they send this e-mail to anyone who nominated by anyone as well as just from them search the web for businesses. You have to pay for your award. No real award program ask you to pay for your award. Once you are submitted, they create a photoshop version of the trophy (in their case they give you two types to choose from). They don’t even say you won, they just say to receive it all we as is that you pay for your award.
