Type of a scam Yellow Pages/Directories
Stated calling from the yellow page ad I placed yesterday and sent me to the yp.com to look at the page. The page he sent me to is totally different than the actual YP page. I have had the same happen with someone pretending to be a goolgle ad rep a year ago. He stated that he could get me priority listing with one of his "medal listing,,, gold, silver, and bronze. There are no such offerings on the YP.com site. The link at the bottom of my email states clearside, not YP.com. Perhap they are a legitimate subcontractor, but based on the poor quality of the email template, I doubt it.
I have pasted the email message below for your review:
Hello Mit,
It was great speaking with you today. YP is a leading local marketing solutions provider and placed in the Top 30 most active web domains in the nation, and I would like to help you get in front of more eyes on www.YP.com and our Local Ad Network of 300+ websites. Every paid listing gets the following with YP:
o 1 -5 Categories of your choice
o Bolded listing in the Organic section
o Web Link
o Auto feed to YP mobile site
The proposal is a locked in price, due to the 12 month contract that we discussed earlier. A contract is a secured way of locking in your price, with no up-charge bewilderment chances.
Below is the information for the Bronze Advantage:
o $40 per month
o Bronze(Right Hand Rail) Listing
o Online Reputation Monitoring
This listing would have all five categories filled with Financing Services, Financial Services, Financial Planning Consultants, Financing Consultants, and Investment Management. This will help maximize the listings potential.
Thank you, again, for taking the time to discuss improving your online marketing presence with me. I would love to help you get in front of more eyes, and get more of the competitions business!
