Spam Alert: GSA Application Services

Today a spammer made another attempt to make the 813-347-4829 thread unreadable, posting dozens of nonsense messages. This spam attack has been going on for several days and seems to be coming from the owner of the phone number.

Their efforts were not in vain. We are giving up and deleting posts about them (yeahh, right) listing other phone numbers that mention GSA Application Services and GSA Preview.

    If even part of that is true, how do they continue to operate under the guise of providing a service connected to the Federal Govt ?

    Jack, it's quite simple how this company remains in busiess...they actually produce a product - go figure.
    They have had a rather rocky employee relationship (which explains most of the garrasing posts) but they do produce GSA awards for their clients.

    One more important item, please do not take this posters word for it, do you yourself a favour and contact the General Services Administration (GSA) and ask then for yourself. This company either has prodcuced or hasn't - you owe it to yourself to find out from the source, not some online chat room that anyone (including myslef) can post to anonymously.

    Just a thought.

    So if I am understanding correctly, you continue to change the name of the company due to employees ? What is your website ? According to admin you are associated with this company, why not refer to " they" as us ? I guess I am confused, you are on the site claiming all these posts are by former employees, yet you are on this site behaving underhanded, doesnt really substantiate your agruement

    I was hoping to get a response to my questions, unfortunately I did not and took the advise and called my Local GSA office, and needless to say they know who this company is and was told they receive calls about them regularly. The woman I spoke to made it very clear this company is in no way endorsed or affiliated with the GSA. She also mentioned she has had many calls complaining about this service. I appreciate your guidance and wonder if you give your potential clients the same advice.

    I believe GSA Preview / GSA1000 also goes by:

    Federal Verification Company - federalverification.com/gsa-application.html
    Creative Concept Group, LLC - creativeconceptgroup.net
    GSA Discount (GDI) - gsadiscount.com
    GSA FastTrack, Inc. - gsafasttrack.com

    And who knows how many other names.  Check BBB records and ALWAYS ask for references!

    Not only do they call they also send e-mail which I unsubscribe to. I don't ever remember subscribing in the first place.This company has insinuated that you must use their service to receive preferential GSA treatment. If they were connected to the government they would have a .gov not a .com. Anyone can search the GSA website for open contracts--no middlemen are required.

    I checked with GSA and they don't have clue who you are.   Whatever you have done, it certainly hasn't been enough to get the GSA to even be aware of your existence.
