UH OH
I'm seeing a discussion of this scam, in which someone calls you claiming to be from a "business directory", asks to confirm your address and phone number, to which you answer "yes," after which they mail you a directory containing your name and address and then bill you $300, climing you agreed to pay in the directory. It is said that this outfit uses a recording of your voice saying "yes" as evidence of your assent to buy this "service." I had such a call a few days ago. If I get such a bill I won't pay it. If someone threatens to sue me over it, watch out.
