Verizon's Customers please read A member from my board posted this and thought I would forward it to everyone here. For everyone that has Verizon, here is your heads up. There is a 800 number calling Verizon customers and promoting a $100 discount on your bill or merchandise as part of Verizon celebrating the New Year. The recording will direct you to this site www.verizonnewyear.com. the site looks spot on identical to Verizon's actual site. In order to get your discount you must log in and that's how they get your information. Like an idiot I did this without checking it out first. Long story short the people behind this ordered a phone and billed it to my account. I found out by the shipping confirmation sent to me from Verizon. Thankfully Verizon caught it early due to suspicious ordering comments and the New York shipping address. When I called Verizon they were unaware of this recording and fraudulent website so I informed them. Here is the number that called me: 1-800-000-0611 The address used on the order is: 2 Sickle st, New York, NY Effin scammers. Oh well lesson learned and sharing the experience. |

A petition on Change.org against the fees had gathered more than 95,000 names by Friday afternoon, a day after Verizon, the country's largest cellphone company, announced the fees. The petition was set up by Molly Katchpole, who earlier this year started a successful campaign to make Bank of America drop a $5-per-month fee for debit-card use. Payment processors for power companies usually charge "convenience fees" of up to $5 for every payment made by phone or online, but cellphone companies haven't taken the step yet. The furor against Verizon hints that they may have to wait further. Verizon Wireless serves 91 million phones and other devices on accounts that pay the company directly, and more who pay indirectly through other companies. It's a joint venture of Verizon Communications Inc. of New York and Vodafone Group PLC of Britain." Now Verizon customers can "Thank God" as well... LOL :D:jest: |
