Identity Theives: Independence Recovery Services
by Steve Hernandez on Jun.13, 2009, under Personal
My wife recently recieved a letter from a company with the following contact information:
Independence Recovery Services
2480 Opdyke Rd
Bloomfield Hills, MI 48304
Incependence Recovery Services
2480 Opdyke Rd
Bloomfield Hills, MI 48304
Please beware that this company / individuals are trying to steal your identity and / or payment information. DO NOT call this collection agency or send them any information. Instead, call the company that they ’say’ you owe money to. My wife recieved the letter from a clothing company that doesn’t have accounts (included an account number) and an amount. Funny thing is, the company they used does not have ‘accounts’ (no credit cards offered from the company) and my wife doesn’t shop there.
Womp womp. Nice try guys.
Please beware. Identity theives.
HP’s Customer Support = FAIL
by Steve Hernandez on Jun.01, 2009, under Personal, Technology
My Brother Cain recently purchased an HP Tablet PC after the rave reviews I gave it: the size, the power, the functionality, all beautiful. If you recall, I had issues recieving my order… took about 3 weeks. 3 WEEKS!
Well anyway, he was willing to wait for it, I agreed, and recommended the specifications. The order was placed.
HP Strikes again. Read the full story here: HP Customer Support = FAIL
Maybe, just maybe, HP is making so much money that they can afford to treat customers poorly, provide sub-par support, and sell low quality merchandise, without it hurting their bottom line. Or maybe they’re like all other businesses (think GM) and are starting down a very dangerous path.
