800Notes.com You Report Scam, Julie and Her Team Insult and Berate You

We were almost scammed by a phone call and posted the experience top Julie's 800notes. The next thing we know just 2 minutes after posting, one of Julie's Admins or maybe Julie herself, slammed us as fools for falling for the scam, whoever insulted us for so dumb as to fall for an elaborate and we'll organized hoax, scam. These fools aren't in the business of protecting citizens. They laugh at us for having received these calls. 800notes laughs at victims. They are not on our side.

800Notes.com I would love to see the sites taken down and them banned

I call for a Children’s Charity and have for the last 7 years, they have my phone number up there and supposedly people I have called saying I called at 8 am and 9 pm. Problem with that is I don’t call at those hours at all, they also say I say hello hello is anyone there, I never say that. I leave a message if I don’t get ahold of anyone the second time I call. They are ruining my reputation. This site needs to be removed and banned from ever starting another one. They are trying to ruin people and they are childish and petty.

Just curious ...

"you could determine if some creep has been spoofing your number"

Exactly how would an individual determine this?

Note that asking questions of anyone who posts at 800notes is pointless, because the overwhelming vast majority of those who post there never return and never see the questions.

"I would presume that you have your own records to support your denials that calls are issued at hours you consider anomalous and carrying either unapproved or strange verbal greetings."

What would you suggest someone do with such records vis-à-vis 800notes? List the calls and times in a reply to the message there? Personally, I would expect that to be met with a piling on by the dogs who run the place, exclaiming how that is no proof and anybody could make it up and yada yada.

"You could perform 'request for comment' outreach via your website or whatever to get better details."

I have no idea what you are talking about and I doubt the person you are addressing does either. Details of what? The allegedly offending calls people have allegedly received from the individual's phone numbers? To do what with, that would stop what this person says is baseless reputational damage? I'm getting a whiff of "presumed guilty until proved innocent".

"800Notes is a venue, not a dog in the race."

Perhaps you should tell the moderator bros that. It's interesting that it sounds rather as if You have a dog or two in it.

"It's been sued repeatedly for "ruining reputations" and no judge has ever agreed with the assessment."

That's very interesting. Sounds like insider knowledge. Details would be fun.

What you may have to comprehend is that charities -- a term often applied loosely -- have long been among the worst offenders among nuisance callers. It would be quite outside the norm for a single person's personal phone number to appear as the calling party in this category. Ditto for manual dialing and use of a live voice.

But let's take as read that your organization is too small to bother with commercial fundraiser boiler rooms and thus jockeys the headsets in-house. I would presume that you have your own records to support your denials that calls are issued at hours you consider anomalous and carrying either unapproved or strange verbal greetings. Taking all the foregoing as true, maybe you're not annoying people in the manner described, but *someone else has*. If you have office partners bending rules to reach an income target, you should want to investigate. If the activity cannot be explained from within your group's four walls, then it's an external condition and maybe out of your control.

Perhaps rather than shooting the 800Notes messengers, you could determine if some creep has been spoofing your number, and knowingly to take unfair advantage of some innocuous Caller ID name tag (CNAM). Do you even know if the rogue callers try to pose as a charity, or just use the cover to run illegal sales calls? You also have the option to post to the thread yourselves, with some polite and non-promotional explanation of what should be expected from genuine calls you control, and why you believe the complaints describe something else going on. You could perform "request for comment" outreach via your website or whatever to get better details. You might even check the call blocker sites for audio files reflecting the offending calls.

800Notes is a venue, not a dog in the race. It's been sued repeatedly for "ruining reputations" and no judge has ever agreed with the assessment. Not having the number thread before me, I am confined to close guesswork, but it appears that you are exhaling fire in the wrong direction.

800Notes.com Posting my personal number stating: “hung up”

I have been reporting a post to 800Notes that I would like to have removed because its my personal number and there is no merit or validity to why a poster named “me” on Oct 1, 2010 post: hung up

Seriously is that the only reason why my phone number is listed on their site since 2010. No other complaints or post. My personal phone number isn’t listed anywhere on the entire internet except for this site with this meaningless post. I’ve repeatedly asked for the post to be removed. I would appreciate this post with my personal private phone number be removed.

Desired outcome: Remove the post with my personal phone number on it.

Every few years a complaint like this floats by which both misses the whole point of 800Notes and also fails to establish harm.

Every possible ten digit sequence is "listed" on site, even the ones which NANPA doesn't recognize as valid phone numbers. I expect that umpteen thousands of phone number threads remain empty because no one has reported a mystery caller using them. Many other threads show meager activity or one-hit wonders, as in your number of interest. Still others run on for multiple pages and/or years, some bearing witness to numbers changing subscribers and/or call purposes.

The site was not founded for character assassins, but unmasking secretive junky callers who often abuse the telephone networks. We derive very little intel from that "me" character, who could not even be bothered to tell us whose end of the call had "hung up". It's annoyingly curt but not violative of service terms. There is a presumption that someone got a call using your number. Like in court, the fact is taken as true until disproven. You can rebut only if you know what truly happened, which nearly thirteen years later I truly doubt.

The very most likely scenario is that some dirt sack spoofed your number to pester the commentor. Eventually everyone with a phone will get a turn at this. It's happened to me twice, and with numbers I never publicize. For all you know, dozens more people got hit with your number that same day, but only one guy mustered the energy to report the incident, if only feebly.

Whatever your number is, I'd suppose that no one out in the wild can attach your name to it. The subject of that two-word almost-not-a-comment *IS NOT YOU*. The thread's view count must be a single digit, excluding any obsessive revisiting from the number's subscriber. You would be much better off either forgetting the matter or dumping the number, and there are no compelling reasons for the latter. You really don't want to "Streisand Effect" your way to attention from trolls and mental cases over the next dozen years.

800Notes.com 800notes/whocallsme.com

800notes.com, and whocallsme.com both are operated by the same people, I believe. There are multiple moderators on each site that will put down users, bully, those who make comments about phone numbers, and delete posts. I’ve actually been threatened, harassed, and belittled constantly whenever I have posted a number on these sites. The site is supposed to be informative for those who are trying to fight phone spam. Posting on the site has become a complete battle, and even if I post a number that called and I’m not exactly sure who it is, the moderators have no issues putting me down. These sites need to go!

Desired outcome: Take down website!

I concur with Jason on 800notes. My opinion: 800notes is an absolute joke, and some of the people that use/moderate it are a bunch of pathetic, cowardly weasels and all-around garbage humans. There’s a particular poster on 800notes that goes by the handle of “BigA” (who I believe uses multiple handles). His sole purpose in life is to sit perched on the site and wait for the next person to come along (in the hope that he can impress them). When that doesn’t happen, “BigA” starts in with his smart-[censored] game while the moderators sit by and do nothing. They’ll rapid-fire delete the other poster’s comments and continue to let “BigA” get away with his clown-show routine. The “Complete Lack of Credibility Award” goes to 800notes.com.

Is 800Notes.com Legit?

800Notes.com earns a trustworthiness rating of 94%

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: After a detailed review, ComplaintsBoard finds 800Notes.com to be a trustworthy company. Although there's a 23% resolution rate for customer complaints, which deserves attention, 800Notes.com is known for their high standards and safety. If you're thinking about dealing with 800Notes.com, it's wise to check how they handle complaints.

The age of 800Notes.com's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.

800notes.com has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

We looked up 800Notes.com and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • Despite a high level of trust, our investigation found issues with 800Notes.com's service, including poor customer service, lack of accountability, and responsibility to resolve complaints. Customers may face long wait times for responses, receive generic or unhelpful answers or no response at all. Only 23% of 1 complaints were resolved.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to 800Notes.com. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

800Notes.com The moderator named Nimrod over at 800notes is deleting legitimate posts!

I have listed 40 - 50 repeat spam callers/robo dialers on 800notes and a childish moderator over there named Nimrod keeps deleting my posts and then proceeded to tell me that I should answer the call to find out who it is, when the numbers are listed with every major spam caller site around. Except for 800notes of course, because these [censored]s delete legitimate scammers posts.

Do not waste your time with 800notes! They clearly support the spam callers!

Desired outcome: Spread the word! 800notes is not a legitimate spam reporting site!

The specific complaint was that your many posts never deviated from a pattern of writing off every unengaged caller as a "scammer". A desire to learn more about a given nuisance caller, beyond the very common problem of abandonment when no human responds, is not "clearly support [of] spam callers". TCPA violators go out of their way to remain secret. Watchdogs go out of their way to expose the secrets. The current state of junk call traffic does sadly force the average citizen to accept suspect calls if we ever want to get past the ever-popular thin report of "got call, didn't answer, no message, blocked".

If the number from your screen cap example was among those "listed with every" other database as somehow toxic, that is hardly evident from your curt remark. Those other sources, even on the call blocker sites, can be inaccurate, and themselves burdened with yet more unqualified "scam" opinions. A bunch of them scrape from 800Notes besides.

The site was built on 'primary experience' reports, and may well drown in lookalike "got call" blurbs. A thread full of the latter says that someone else got a call, but not why.

800Notes.com The fact is that you are forum for complaint

In several occasions I have posted complaints of various phone numbers without any resolve on your part .

Now that shaken and stir laws are infect within the

United States , you igets could not find the perfect opportunity to set everything ablaze !

Just think about it with every complaint sent in to the FTC they have justification to go after the phone companies, for noncompliance . They will not do this unless a watchdog group or groups make them in force there own laws. This is were you come in and make a class action law suit to life fires under there butt's ! All you have to do is tweek your webb site with a line of code / questions if the post person registered a complaint to the FTC. After that compile the data of who, what,when, were and how for proof that the FTC are inept in their jobs .

Desired outcome: Grow some

Odd.

"2nd - this is a place to report issues with phone numbers so others can be alerts."

No, this is a place to post complaints about the website that supposedly is such a place.

Some people think -- not surprisingly, since it is called "complaints board" and this page is for 800Notes -- that the complaints posted here are *directed to* 800Notes rather than being *about* 800Notes.

But then we are all supposed to be supreme beings of cyberspace -- and for those of us who are, it is never our responsibility to try to understand what a lesser being might be saying or doing.

"Scratching my head…That their issue with 800notes should be their worst troubles😉!"

Yeah, I'd be scratching mine too if I thought there was a germ of truth in that sarcasm -- but nobody ever said that their issue with 800notes is their worst troubles, or that they did not have multiple other quite serious troubles, or whatever it is you were trying to convey there.

I have had a whole load of troubles over the time I have had experience with 800Notes. Mother died of cancer after a long fight (yes, she did fight) and many months of travelling 200 km to be with her for 10 days each month, when I can't drive for a medical reason; partner whose diabetic/post-stroke condition deterioriated over that time and since, who then got cancer himself; other serious illnesses in the family; the effects of the pandemic on me as the isolated sole caregiver of a completely disabled partner. But hey, I'm whining, and you must forgive me.

Actually, I was just pointing out that someone posting at 800Notes does not mean they do not have serious problems in life, or that their scam phone calls problem dwarfs whatever problems anyone else may have.

But it was nice to see the favourite trick of the cretins at the website: build an effigy of straw, make it a subject of derision and disrespect, and act like you are all superior to the person you have just built a giant lie on.

So transparent and so smelly.

800Notes.com Trolls, name-calling, and abusive behavior

The site is supposed to be a place where people can report robo calls and spam/ scam phone numbers. I've received a number of robo calls from the same phone number and I report it on whichever reporting sites I can find. This has led me to post the same complaint on multiple sites, just to make sure people know about the scammy phone number.

There are a few people on 800Notes (such as "Jack Reacher") who take it upon themselves to complain about multiple posts. Well, the reason I'm making "multiple posts" is because I've receiving multiple robo calls.

After a few posts reporting the same number, Jack Reacher started saying the abusive behavior, calling me names, and got the moderators to remove my reports.

And why? Is Jack Reacher a mod? Does he own the site? What business is it of his that I'm posting the same report on multiple sites, so more people know about the robo-call? And where do the rules say I'm not allowed to post on multiple reporting sites?

And why does he take it upon himself to call people names, accusing them of being brain dead? This isn't even close to professional behavior and I have no idea why the mods/ site owners tolerate it.

So I'm not going to post reports of robo calls any more, which means their site has less data, which means it becomes less useful.

Desired outcome: Better moderation, remove the troll/ abusive behavior. Allow people to post reports of robo calls, like the site's purpose shoud be

800Notes.com Website for searching numbers

So, often throughout the years I have gone to a website, 800notes.com, and have searched for numbers. Usually I’m trying to find out what telemarketers are calling me, and for any other number I may not know. Over the past several years, the website has turned into a battleground. There are people on there, usually moderators, who flag posts, belittle users, and make a life living hell for people who simply want to post. They make fun of people for what they say, pick fights, end up harassing users, and even making people feel bad. It is straight up cyber bullying. It is ridiculous!

Disrespect, anger, hostility, arrogance & aggression is what they live for so you can just imagine what these creeps look like in real life.

These bullies attempt to gives away their shame by denigrating you and use this holier-than-thou behavior as a way to feel good about themselves. Challenged goofs.

They "Provide No Value" to the site and quash usable information & bully people in an attempt to preserve their inflated egos. One could swear they work for the telemarketers and scammers.

Hard to believe these goons devoted to self-amusement and invented superiority complexes are moderators, defeating the true purpose of 800Notes.

In the beginning, this purpose was to drum up traffic that could generate ad cash flow to make it worth the founder's while if not a true career.

They found later on that with enough reports, they could find/ID, then approach the offender with an offer that could profit 800notes. The offer details varied with reports that seem to be much harder to find these days.

Good question. Looks like you're pretending that Islands7 said that someone said that.

And yet anybody with eyes in their head can see that Islands7 said the opposite.

Such a pathetic transparent pretense at discourse.

Looks like you encountered the IT'S SPOOFED answer to everything.

I posted a detailed report of interactions with the CRA scam (IRS scam) callers -- in which I had called back more than one of the numbers they were calling from, and THEY ANSWERED. But I was told repeatedly that these numbers are spoofed (and thus I am a [censored] for thinking the telecoms selling the criminals dozens of telephone numbers for their business needed to be held accountable).

They are such charmers, they are. But we are all know-nothing peasants. Even those of us who are, y'know, lawyers and the like.

Both Islands7 and I (repeatedly) said that the numbers the scammers were calling from WERE NOT SPOOFED because when we called them back at the number shown on our phones, THE SCAMMERS ANSWERED. Nobody could fail to understand that.

As it stands, the thread you cite as an example has no "information about a scam". If it ever did, the intel would be available for anyone to read today. Presumably Admin had to trim off material which violates service terms and/or looks like noisy ad hominem attacks on fellow users. Moderators do not delete, they only remove items for later decision.

The thread *does* feature angry unfocused rants from "Concerned" against "these criminals and shysters", who were never identified. Apparently some mystery caller generated abandoned calls and rejected return calls. "Concerned" repeatedly railed against "AT&T T-Mobile and Verizon" for not "cracking down on these criminals" and demanded that these carriers "need to block the local numbers", whatever that meant.

In response to questioning to clarify the person's opinions, "Concerned" continued raging against major carriers as "profiting from these criminals in shysters" [sic], reasoning that "the physical connection between the originating and the ending phone is where the phone company gets paid!"

"Concerned" also claimed that "you can spoof the collar ID [sic] but you can’t spoof the physical connection". I gather an indirect suggestion that major carriers can therefore easily and instantly determine where the "criminals and shysters" keep their dialers.

"It would appear that the "trolls" on this website have no clue on how a phone system works!", fumed "Concerned" more than once at other users who were naturally confused by the offered reasoning.

Nowhere in this ranting is a sliver of evidence that any major U.S. phone carrier profits so much from passing nuisance calls that they are unconcerned with mitigation, traceback requests, retaliation from various regulators, or indeed losing their own customers. Also absent is any fact to establish that the abandoned calls *by default* must have come from "criminals". Also absent is any effort to bring this concern to whatever carrier "Concerned" used at the time.

"The phone company", a/k/a "AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon", cannot run a single unbroken trans-oceanic copper line between every call party. Someone is motivated by profit from welcoming illegal sales calls, but it's not the "last mile" carrier which rings "Concerned". It's someone well upstream, often some rinky-dink "gateway" provider, to which we might apply the older term "spam harbor". Unmasking that spam source is not instant and not easy without cooperation among carriers large and small. Honest carriers cooperate with tracebacks; bad actors stall and lie about noncompliance. The presence of spam harbors means that junk callers *can* hide themselves, until investigators fan away their smokescreens.

I suggest it was "Concerned" who failed to comprehend how phone networks function, how junk callers diffuse their traffic to avoid detection as a malicious pattern, and that throwing tantrums helps no one to "help identify" secretive callers as instructed on each 800Notes number thread.

800Notes.com Loser lackey moderators devote themselves to putting people down

Use a different website like spamcalls.net, fraudnumber.com, or spamnumbers.net.

The moderators and their lackeys devote themselves to being nasty to people constantly. You can see them as they comb through posts looking for ways they can interject in a nasty way. If you refute something they say, the post will be deleted. It is not likely this site is actually trying to help anyone, and like a lot of other posts online point out, they are likely involved in scamming themselves. They push away people who are posting good things to prevent scams, which could mean they are involved in the scams themselves. Don't waste your time putting up with the loser moderator lackeys. They have no other ambition in life other than to mess with you.

What fun to have encountered this website, just after another dust-up with MikeHuntleton, BigA, and one or two others whose names I'm not bothering to remember.

The band of wannabe alpha bros who actually run the show at 800notes.

At least I'm not the only target of these intolerant, bigoted (try not having English as your first language), inadequate, all-round cretinous cretins. I was beginning to think I must be special!

Actually, I'd hunted around for their names at the site this week, and discovered they're just all-round horrible people spewing hate, lies and insults at anyone they consider unworthy.

To be worthy, I guess one has to be male and living in mummy's and daddy's basement and making one's self an expert on spoofed phone numbers, which seems to be about the height of their accomplishments. ;)

The 800 Notes website indicates the site's purpose is to expose telemarketers and businesses that scam. However, the site is being used by some individuals to post personal negative slander comments for revenge due to personal relationship matters. Recommendation: Remove personal information irrelevant to the purpose of the site or take the site down completely.

800Notes.com Reporting site

I liked going to 800Notes and checking on phone numbers that I didn't recognize. However, as of late, as others have mentioned, it has morphed into an argument site instead of an information sharing site. I wish the developers/owners would start monitoring that site and remove any posts that are not appropriate for the intention of the site. With so many scammers and robo callers, we need a forum to report them and let others know what the caller said if they answered the phone or were left a message.

800Notes.com Disgraceful and fake

This website is merely a rant collection for people who received an unwanted call and attracts all sorts of misfits. Posts are mostly trollers who seek attention and have arguments over who called and how to get even with telemarketers/scammers/debt collectors.

There are posts containing links to pornographic sites posted by people who claim someone sent them a link via text and posts these links. Others use vulgar language to describe an encounter with a scammer or angry telemarketer call.

Attempting to help give information on a phone number yielded questions seeking personal information from me about the number.

800Notes.com Unethical behavior from insulting moderators

What I thought was a service to find out owners of phone numbers, turned out to be a call complaint website.I went there many times to look up a number, never commenting about my calls.

A few days ago I wanted to contribute some numbers I knew of and was not able to complete even one. I was asked by several people all within a few minutes why I was there, what is the address, what is the company's website and called a lying shill. I asked back WTF is a shill and who are these people. After a few insults from them, I told them where to go and stopped responding.

I began looking up reviews and found my way here. I have read a number of reviews and decided to write one of my own.

The Image is my way of showing what I think of these "cyber-thugs", since they act like a gang of kids, I made it of their " Gang Tags"

Oh look, you have a fan club. ;) ... Actually, Deleted Media's post is a reasonably good imitation of the reception offered at 800notes by the thuggy trolls in question.

It's interesting how the people writing these negative reviews here (I'm one, I hasten to point out!) all seem to be quite literate and articulate.

Looking around 800notes, we see that common targets of these bully bros are not fully literate in English, are unschooled in telephony, and are unused to online discussion forum conventions. These big brave buddies delight in berating people who fit those descriptions, in particular.

800Notes.com Ficticious slander for business and personal phone numbers

I am a victim of abuse from members of 800notes and write this review as a warning to anyone with a phone listing. As many of us know there is a big problem with scams, telemarketing and other unwanted calls. Many people turn to the internet as a means to find who may have called them.

There are numerous 'Phone Directory' sites listing visitor's reports from various types of calls. One of these sites, 800notes, had a number i recognised with incorrect calls reported for scams. Under this number's thread there were several different reports of scams, some stating they called and got a "number not in service' or the caller wouldn't give them any information about the company. All were false, as it was my brother's number who uses it for emergencies only and no one has called it for several years.

When contacting 800notes thru their "Contact Us" link, I explained how the reports for our number could only be fakes and please remove those false reports. I left an email address, but there was never any reply. I even tried reaching out thru the Number's thread only to be attacked by members, calling me a shill and using very rude behavior. They didn't verify anything, but they pretended they did and accused me of being a scamer attemptung to do 'damage control', whatever that was supposed to mean. They claimed the number was all over the internet as a scam number. I could not find anything other than what was on 800notes website.

While it is a known fact that scammers use business numbers and fake numbers to hide their true CID, by "spoofing", BUT real people reporting calls would not claim they called this number back and talked to someone, as there are no phone records of an incoming call for 28 months on our number. After explaining this, our posts about it were removed (Post pending moderator approval), then a few hours later deleted completely. The fake posts remained.

I wasn't able to get a screen shot before they deleted my posts, so i decided to research this site and write this review/report. While visiting that site, I witnessed a similar issue another person was having and took a screenshot of the behavior of the members at that site. Looking around the site at random numbers, I found a pattern of behavior these members trend there. They encourage people to report negative calls, but discourage any positive reports, calling them a shill and ganging up on them, with several other members like bullies in an alley.

I've seen posts were they advise people they dont have to pay a debt collector or worry about any debt, because nobody can legally do anything about it. This is a very deceptive website and I have to wonder how many Companies lose business because of the false/ misleading information these people project about their number to unsuspecting visitors, without validating any information from the reports posted. They will claim they cant be resposible because they have a "legal safe harbor' and you wont be able to legally force them to remove false postings.

I took a few screenshots of various "bullies" to illustrate my findings there. There are many more, but I dont wish to over burden Ripoff.com with a gallery of images. I did a search for 'Reviews for 800notes' and found some interesting to read. You should go check to see if your number(s) have been posted to be certain business is not being diverted away from you by misleading false posts!

The people running that site are nothing more than your basic internet trolls. They found a place they could sign up and have the whole place as their personal playground. Its supposed to be a 'Phone Directory', but instead they dictate it as a call complaint site. That would be fine, but why advertise it as a directory where you can find out about a business phone owner? Says it right on their homepage and theres no reason to attack unsuspecting visitors.
Heres a website someone made that is a collection of the cyber bully activity of their moderators actions and a makes fun of them too. 800nuts.000webhostapp.com

The registered users @ 800notes.com are bullies who only post to entertain themselves and occasionally toss in some important info, self-justifying for posting at all. Instead of clearing out unwanted posts, they would rather bait people into an argument so they can each take turns marking your post with negative likes [-1] at the same time pat each other...

800Notes.com The website was useless and impossible to reach the moderators

I recently noticed that some unknown phone number called several time, but I didn’t hear. I found the website www.800notes.com. I filled the form and hoped to get info about this number, but the website showed error and they advised me to contact the moderators. I tried to reach them, but all my emails were returned back. Total scam, so stay away from this website and share your info about it.

800Notes.com verbal threats and bullying by collection agency

I am dying. I have tried to cope the best way I can financially. These people have done the lowest form of a deplorable act by contacting me while in hospice as well as contacting my elderly parents threatening me with a restraining order as well as the seizure of what assets I have. Is this what humanity has been reduced to? Bill collectors who have computer and telephone courage to bully people who have day-to - day trials and tribulations into paying for something that appears to be a likely scam? Everything I read is leading me to believe that this is some con artist's way of trying to force me into a scam. Today I am reporting "you" to the police for contacting me, and if we must go to court, then I will gladly appear if I am still alive, with my nurse in a wheel chair, and I will convincingly tell the judge of how I was struck with a disease that required me to be on chemo and to have endless biopsies and lose my career. I'd gladly pay if I had it, but to try to scare me and distress my family is cruel and the lowest form of # I have ever encountered. The profanity and verbal I was exposed to was absolutely unruly, thankfully I taped these monsters, and have contacted district attorney lisa madigan's office, no one should be allowed to bully you because you have debt due to illness. Robyn fields the litigation manager told me "f* you, and I hope you croak. Too bad you're sick, you're in debt and it is not my fault, I pay my bills!" this evil devil will burn in hell and karma is alive and well robyn. These scam artists were so cocky they even felt bold enough to tell me the attorney they are working with (adam shapiro) and the process server (steven foster). I spoke to a police officer today and he said I was the fifth person he had spoken to this week who had received a call from these jackholes.

800Notes.com Unfair Administration

800Notes.com is supposed to be a website where a consumer can post complaints regarding telemarketers, scams, etc. A member of the group Surfers United went onto the site to post a complaint regarding a company called CallCentric Wholesale Inc. Our member was immediately set upon by 'trusted posters' attempting to thwart the complaint. Their right to post links was disallowed, posts were deleted and the thread was locked by the administrator.

Our poster felt clearly that they had been treated unfairly though the complaint was legitimate. Other internet sources have raised issues as to whether this site receives monies to disregard and thwart complaints as well as other issues.
