An 866 toll free number has been calling me nonstop lately, asking for a "Joffree Ohkai." I continually white lied that such a person was not there at the moment. Yet their persistence paid off as I picked up today finally and they immediately went into their pitch without asking if I was present or not. This particular "company" claims to offer $200 in gasoline vouchers for only $3.95 in shipping of the vouchers. Obviously, there's a major catch. They then began to ask for my checking account information. This set me off, and I grilled them about what the name of the company was. CPI, Continuity Partners Incorporation was his reply. Being at my computer at the time (when am I not at my computer?) I typed their name in to Google to see what their deal was. And, not to much surprise, a long list with words such as "fraud" and "scam" in the title of the topics filled the screen. Needless to say, I hung up the phone. Just a warning for you folks out there. I'm still dead. But at least I'm not broke. Well, at least, not on the account of someone stealing my funds illegally. Thanks Google! posted at 3:56 PM |
