Car Warranty Telemarketing Lawsuit: The FTC May Have It Wrong
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), one of the regulators of telemarketing affairs (the other being the FCC), filed a lawsuit on May 13, 2009 against the alleged car warranty telemarketing scammers. The story can be found here.

Automobile Warranty: 800-168-4861/8001684861
800-168-4861 is using the same call list as 800-219-7425. We believe that this is the same telemarketing agency that is being used by automobile warranty companies such as Vehicle Services, Inc. (previously linked to 800-219-7425) and Consumer Direct Warranty Services. If you are being called by (800) 168-4861, keep reading.
How do you we know this? When [...]

The car warranty telemarketing scammers have moved to a new phone number. 843-281-8793 is a disconnected number that WAS registered in Little River, South Carolina.
