Recently a call came into the office from a prospective buyer. After talking with her briefly, I asked her if she was being assisted by an agent who could get her real time updates of newly listed homes when they were listed.
She seemed surprised that this was possible. But it wasn't until she began to share her online experience with me that I became startled. Apparently, she had clicked on a link on a website to get information about a home listing and didn't think anything of it...until she was presented with a $15 charge on her phone bill the next month. When she contacted the phone company, they informed her that the click had cost her $15!
Has anyone else run into this?
