Pretty much the same complaint as I have been reading about up here. This company called us and got a bunch of yes no questions answered by an employee who has no authorization for advertising much less an invoice for $599. They are now trying to collect late fees and threatening to send it to a collection agency and put it on our credit.

  • It is a scam. I received the same invoice on October 1. I tried emailing the company and they called saying I must pay the debt and they have recording of me approving it. I remember them calling months ago saying I need to confirm so my boss could cancel his ad and I answered yes/no questions about cancellation and these people actually change the recording so it is yes/no of your accepting charges for ad!! I did research and found their website uspublicyp.com is same as onlinepublicyp.com which has many, many, many complaints on here and on the BBB site. And the same amounts are being requested $599.00 (initial amount they said), $627.39 and $676.80 after "interest" even though the first invoice they send is months after the so called initial billing. Everything I found shows that they cannot do anything to you they will threaten lawsuits etc. but they are so known to be scam artists and have been in trouble under other fake company names that they will not pursue anything beyond threats. Report them to BBB, FTC and attorney general so there is awareness for others of this new fake company name they are trying this under.
