We have received a voice mail from Lisa Shaw(n) of Leapfish Inc. She left the URL that does not contain any website, leapfish.com (without a password not a single word can be seen, so why do I need this URL???) and a toll free number where they do not know her name. Why does it mean? Is it a scam?

I know this is an old thread but I thought this was worth posting:

The LeapFish Chronicles: “Admitting To Click Fraud Is An Interesting Business Model.”

Chris later decided to follow up on his two unsolicited phone calls with an e-mail to Pong-A-Long saying:

I just clicked on your link 50 times. Pay per click hurts. Found you on page 2 of the sponsored links. Call me for an advertising solution (888)REDACTED-EXT 765.

Ouch.
