FRAUD ALERT! Requires Urgent Attention

YellowBot User
YellowBot is listing Fraud Locksmith companies as defined by the BBB and the FTC. (Visit their sites for full explanation) The Fraud Companies list illegitamite address (Ex. a Pizza Hut address)and Names(Ex. 24 Hour Emergency Locksmith,24 Hour 7 Day Locksmith, Jenkintown Locksmith...etc.) near established Legitimate Locksmith Company Stores. This confuses the consumer making them think they have the local Locksmith when in reality their call is received at a New York City Fraud Call Center. The Consumer is low balled a Service Call Price and when the person shows up (In a unmarked civilian vehicle) they are charged up to 100 times more from an untrained so called locksmith. these people usually damage the door and lock to get you in and then charge you BIG money to fix their damages. Please check into this National Problem Propegated by AOL Directories. For further information on FRAUD LOCKSMITHS you can check at Alerts on www.bbb.com ; www.ftc.gov or at www.aloa.org

    In Texas you can check to see if a company is licensed and insured by using the following link:
    http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/psb/comp...
    You can search for a particular company or search your city if you don't know the name of a company.
    If they are not listed, they are not a legitimate company in Texas!
