Where does the information on telephone numbers come from?
The distribution of information on scam and spam methods is vital to oppose the leaching of people's purses. To achieve this goal tellows is aggregating a vast bulk of useful information on the caller, including his or her approximate location. The key indicator of a number's trustworthiness is the tellows score which is generated through a complex algorithm fed by your comments and ratings of the respective phone numbers. Hence, the success of this anti-fraud endeavour goes hand in glove with the community's participation. If you have experience on the matter, share it and warn your fellows before the scammers drain their pocket dry.

What a scam company. Had a phone call end of last year and this company never stopped calling even if I said I am not interested. Lady said she will send me an introduction package and I can only pay in the new year. I said no I will only try out 1 5Liter. Lady said she can only send 2 x 5Liters. She is not allowed to send less than that. I said I will contact her if I like the product and is interested. In the new year, a parcel arrived at the office. Did not open it because I did not order anything from this company. They did not want to take the parcel back. Said it is part of the introduction parcel. I said I did not order it. She doesn't listen at all and said on the invoice it says this is part of the introduction parcel. I asked her for my telephonic conversation where I specifically said I will only take this 2 x 5Liter disinfectant. She ignored me solidly. I must pay for the parcel because I received it and it is part of the introduction parcel.
This is a very dishonest company. Please do not do any business with them and report them to the Consumer Council. My rate is 0/100310350041 (Durban) - View details and comments - 19 -
