Charging for government business database registration
By: Sep 18, 2016After completing my company's DUNS and SAM registration - when the Taxpayer ID registration process was successfully completed - I received several e-mails from this outfit and 3 phone calls from this group telling me I "urgently" needed to contact one of their "Case Managers" in order to complete my company's registration in a variety of other government databases (none of which I had heard of), or my company would not be eligible to bid on government contract business. When I contacted them they asked for my company name, DUNS and SAM registration ID, and other information that would allow them access to my SAM account. They then told me they charged 3500$ for their service and needed the money on a Credit Card over the phone to proceed. At this point, I asked to speak to a manager or a member of their legal team and they hung up on me. I one call I actually spoke to somebody who claimed to be a manager and he hung up on me when I started asking probing questions.

Same exact thing happened to me just today!!! I was immediately suspicious when the gentleman asked for $3500 to be placed in Integrated Award Environment of the General Service Administration. These were two things I never heard of. Totally Scam!!!

the same thing happened to me. I gave them my Duns number but I think they cannot anything to my account with it. It's a shame there are people like that . My questions to all is, how they got my company email and phone number right after I signed for SAM.
