Urgent Help Needed On Bogus Callers Saying They're My Site
I'm at my wits end - I run an ethical and reliable financial services site in the UK of which the domain is creditsolutions4all.co.uk.
I had some trouble a few years back with a company working off the domain creditsolutions4all.com and people used to telephone me complaining, thinking I was the .com too - that domain came available just recently and I was able to buy it up to put a stop to that problem.
Now, a new problem has developed - people who fill in multiple forms for unsecured loans online and even people who have not filled in a form, here in the UK are getting calls saying they've been accepted for an unsecured loan.
Trouble is, the foreign sounding caller says they are from creditsolutions4all.co.uk and tell the recipient to visit my site to check it out and see it is real etc ...
They are told the money offered is some government backed scheme.
This is not us at all - we never make calls like this and the services we promote (as we're affiliates) do NOT charge upfront fee's for unsecured loans.
The person being called is then asked to pay money via U Kash or something like that - they are then told to ring the number 0203 455 4199 to say the money has been paid.
Then they get either no answer or they are told the loan doesn't exist.
People then find out site online whilst either researching Credit Solutions and come to us - telephone us ... etc ... the whole saga goes on.
Now what I'm concerned about (worried sick to be frank) is that this is giving my site a TERRIBLE name and reputation which is unwarranted.
Can anyone help me or advise me on what I should do.
Any help much appreciated.
I'm a one man band working purely as an online affiliate.
Thanks
Jane
