    Sometimes it’s good to miss a phone call

    When I got to the office today, I noticed that I’d missed a phone call. The caller ID displayed “Park Ridge, Illinois,” and because my mother was born in Park Ridge, I “Googled” the number.

    scam.jpgTurns out the number was from George S. May International. That made me remember a former associate (whom I did not like) that used to work for George S. May. This former associate did not stay around long. He twisted facts. And he used to brag about pressuring George S. May clients into buying services they did not need – at exorbitant prices.

    A bit more searching and I was glad I missed the phone call. Suffice it to say this company has a reputation as a scam company that milks you for whatever liquid cash they can get – all for very little in return. Think of them as the stereotypical used-car salesman, or the stereotypical pushy door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman.

    That’s MY opinion. To provide info so you can form your own opinion, I’m linking here to a few sites so you can read more:

    It was enlightening information for me. I’m glad I missed their phone call. In my opinion, it’s these kind so schmucks that give consultants a bad name.
