Stop the Yellow Page B.V/Yellow Data Services LTD Scam

IMPORTANT UPDATE
The FTC has sued Yellow Page B.V., Yellow Page (Netherlands) B.V.; Yellow Publishing Ltd.; and Yellow Data Services Ltd., for making false representations to businesses in the U.S.  A temporary restraining order has been granted by a U.S. Federal Court fraudulent on the grounds that they falsely represented that businesses and nonprofits had a preexisting business relationship with them, and falsely represented that they were affiliated with a local yellow pages directory, in violation of the FTC Act. See details of the FTC action here:

This site is dedicated to ferreting out as much information as possible about the Yellow Page, B.V. scam, (recently renamed Yellow Data Services LTD) sharing that information, and bringing to light all those who are cooperating with this outrageous rip-off. 

If you've found this site chances are you have received a fax that looks like this:

You may have signed this form and sent it back. And you may now have a collection agency (probably ACL Collections) trying to get you to pay them $1,068 or else.  Well, you are not alone.  This scam is being perpetrated right now on thousands of business people.  This website is intended to share information, and to empower those caught up in the scam to resist it.

I am wondering if anyone has been sued in court by Yellow Page, B.V. or their collection agencies. Also, if you have paid anything to Yellow Page, B.V. or Yellow Data Services LTD, I would be interested to know that.
