Total Scam - DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THEM.

Calls at least every other day.

Received call from Tammy Vaccarino wanting to do a story on our company. She called from 1-954-671-1099. This site was helpful in determining it was a sales call.

It's not really a scam per se, but I've talked to this company before - they charge you to do a "news" spot with them.  They take a while before they let you know that though which is annoying.  It took a couple calls in which they position it as news coverage before they reveal the hidden fee.

I haven't actually been called yet - but received the email from the same scammers as follows. Before doing anything, I simply forwarded to my PR firm who confirmed the "Scam". Their email follows:

I am the assistant to Scott Golden, Associate Producer of the television series ?Inside Business Report.? We are currently working on an upcoming segment on ?Unique new franchise concepts & opportunities,? and it will be included in our   ?Greening of the globe? Series.

Mr. Golden and his team are responsible for determining the most appropriate content for programming based on our editorial calendar, and he would like to arrange a time to speak with you.  The segment relates to industry trends and how they are helping to address these specific trends. Please call or email me to let me know when you would be available to speak via teleconference.  In the meantime feel free to visit the show?s website at www.ibreporttv.com
