At this same address and phone number
you will find: "Rewards-Confirmation.info".
This is the "destination" from a link that starts at:
"http://ad.leadbolt.net/show_cu?lang=en-US§ion_id=813612291"
which appears as a "Security Check" pop-up asking one to
"Complete a 30-seconds test below...".
This is apparently an "anti-spam" or "anti-bot" security measure to
protect the integrity of a Website.
What it really is ...
One is redirected to a series of pages asking for very much personal financial, medical, and living-situation information. This will most likely be used to "spam" the unaware person who participates in the surveys! The lying intro (claiming "Security Check") is really a lead-in to a "credit card" application at the end of it all!
Meanwhile, any personal data revealed will be used to "opt-in" the naive participant to any number of future e-mailings, probably postal "junk mail" also (could they even be giving permission for the "affiliated" firms to "junk call" by phone also?).
Incidentally, the "Security Check" page will "freeze" ones Browser. the only apparent ways to exit this page are: 1.) participate in the information collection process, or 2.) close your Web Browser, thus having to restart your session by restarting your Browser. Sort of like being kidnapped! I do believe that when your browser is "out of your control" you have been "hijacked"!
What this (these) firms are doing is not open, nor forthright, nor fair, in the opinion of many folks who "surf" the Web. It is aggressively "stealing" ones time that it takes to "get away" from the "hijackers". Potentially, it could cause one the loss of data contained in the Browser when one is forced to shut it down due to the "freeze" inflicted by their underhanded methods.
I am posting this in case others are confused by what has happened to their computer or their Browser. You may refer to the links below for additional "techie" data. You may wish to use the "Google Chrome" browser to see some of the data. You will discover that part of the trail is hidden behind a "proxy" that protects the obnoxious website from receiving "feedback" about is destructive(?) or at least aggressive behavior.

Do business with such "spam-vertizers" at your own risk! Please read all the print in every line of any of the "free" or other offers! Consider getting a credit-card from a reputable Bank or Credit Union in your local community! Do not "fall" into their less than open and honest traps!
