Insurance Lead Scam-Important to Read!

Attention Fellow Insurance Agents,

If you buy Medicare leads, don't buy them from wholesaleleadsnow dot com.
It's a scam. They say that their leads are from business reply cards sent in by the prospect. They are not. The supposed "leads" are nothing but names that come off of a mailing list you can buy at USAdata for about 7 cents each. They're selling them at $10 each or $8.00 each if you buy 100.

As an agent, I order lists from USAdata of people who are turning 65. I order about 2000 names at a time for my area. Like I said, they cost around 7 cents each.

Well, without knowing, I ordered some of those $10 leads. I received an attachment in an excel format. When I opened it, I saw that the "leads' were the same ones that I buy from
USAdata, including the same font. So I decided to compare the names. Sure enough, about 98 percent of the leads that I bought were already on my USAdata list. I requested a refund but
they have not complied. This just happened this week (today is March 10, 2011). I have already contacted my attorney.

Please pass this along to all of your insurance agents or insurance agent friends. Don't let this happen to you.
By the way, I am not being compensated by USAdata in this email. If you would like to talk to me, please
send me an email.

Thanks,
