I love startup stories like this. Cleverness + determination = :thumbsup:

Where you see cleverness, I see unethical behavior (Google hijacking) linked with powerful knowledge.

Instead of using their knowledge and skills for good, they are exploiting loopholes in technology to take a slice of others' businesses that were built with real hustle and determination.

Edit: to clarify the unethical piece (which is left out of the op)... nothing wrong with the in person sales pitch and fax optimization

Regulation and laws need to catch up with this nonsense. Identity theft plain and simple. If it crosses state lines it should bring federal civil penalties and sanctions. I'm ranting a bit of course, but this is disgusting.

On the other hand, perhaps you were just being sarcastic...
