The FTC is going after high profile cases of False-advertising to send the message to all businesses and marketers that Truth-in-advertising will be enforced. Filing complaints, by phone 1-877-382-4357 builds the database for detecting patterns and providing evidence that they can use to take legal action on the consumer's behalf. Since Pulse360 is blatantly serving up ads with false statements, obnoxious pop-ups, and fake “investigative reports,” filing complaints with the FTC and BBB seems like a good place to start the official call for accountability. Have there been any REAL investigative reports done on Pulse360's questionable approach? Worth noting is the recent press-release showing how serious they do take consumer fraud even on the wave of "Debt Relief" scams: http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2011/01/hermosa.shtm Filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission is one of the best things which can be done!

The link mentions Meetup202, an event for people involved in internet marketing, and mentions pulse360 as well. Even has a picture of people in their office, most likely those in charge, and says: "I went up to their office, which is one street down form the Hilton where Affiliate Summit NYC is going to be located this year (2010). So it was an easy walk. I met the team of Pulse 360 and got a mini tour of their office. I had a good talk with the CEO and talked about Facebook advertising. So if anyone ever wants to go up to them directly, now you have a better idea of who they are and where to find them. There's even a video at the bottom showing what they do for fun.
