Sales Genie sells fake phone numbers!
I have had my same phone number for 11 years, suddenly, I start getting calls for "Duane - Brighter View Windows" When I explain there is no Duane here, they HANG UP and CALL BACK. I tried for two months to ask rude telemarketers where they got my number, and I was finally told Sales Genie is selling my phone number.
When I called Sales Genie, they told me they had never heard of a national Do Not Call list but they would remove my number. They also claimed they got my number from Experian and gave me an Experian phone number. I called experian and they said the only info they give is credit reports.
Sales Genie is selling fake info and lying about where they got it.
Harassment and distributing my phone number
Did not help soon enough year later

I have two major complaints with salesgenie.com. The first is that they will only let you take a 1 year or more contract.
You cannot go month to month. (When I signed up the salesman told me I could cancel at any time. But when I was finalizing the order, the woman I spoke to denounced that claim. *** me agreed to go ahead anyway).
The second issue is now that my business is struggling to get by, I asked if I could suspend my account or cancel it (I'm in month 4 of the 12 month contract). They said all they could do is move the billing date to the end of the month. No suspension, no cancellation. Great customer service!
(Yes, that is tongue in cheek).
I recommend all small businesses avoid these guys like the plague. Unless you have the manpower to send out thousands of mailers, you won't get your money back that you spend for the service.

First off, as a former employee of Salesgenie.com's, I have no love for them. But, they DO NOT distribute your number if they were prospecting you, that is not how they acquire their data.
They are a division of InfoUSA. If you have not heard of Info, they are the largest compiler of business and consumer data in the U.S. Their data is sourced from 100% public record. Now, if your are getting B2B calls because someone got your info from Salesgenie and you are out of business, then they and yourself are the victims of inaccurate data, not a fishing scam.
You can call InfoUSA and have them remove your business from their database.
It will take about a month to updated and probably a few months before the calls completely stop.
Hope that helps.
