This is probable a scam also:
http://www.urlfreeze.com/bert67/pdc

I first of all don't like the URL. I'd like to see the original name. This probable means that it's an affiliate of some kind to sell this program so they receive emails to process.

Tell me if I'm right about this site.

Thanks a bunch.

Ok, thanks but I have seen these before, I don't know how to read them. I mean I don't know how to see if they are bogus or not. Could you tell me how to pick out bad points in a whois listing?

Thanks a lot again.
Just to let you know you are a great help to me. I appreciate all the time you put in answering my questions and concerns.

The Whois lookups should give you all the pertinent information you need to do a quick google search. I did a search of the phone # of 480-624-2599 and the first hit I got was with a link that said "2008 Credit Suit" on a web site called Fightback.com The second listing had a header of Internet Scam Information. So with that I would say the site is run by scammers.

Here is some other info that I would normally look for in a whois lookup.

If it is a business website do they have a free email service registered to the sight (i.e. business@yahoo.com, @gmail.com, etc). This website did not have one of those and that is why I checked the phone # instead.

Next I check to see when the website was created to get a rough estimate of how long the company has been in business. The site you gave me was set up in Feb 2007 so not in business on the web all that long.

Based on what I found by google searching the phone # I would stay away from this company. If you have more questions please ask.
