How did Pet Amber Alert gain permission from the U.S. Department of Justice, and the national Center for Exploited Children to use the name “Amber Alert?” Is this legal? If so, doesn’t it create confusion? The pet-finding company claims to share “the same technology” as Amber Alerts for missing kids. How is that possible? How do they make phone contact with people located within some circular radius? They charge more as the radius gets bigger. Why do they have an F rating with the New York and Los Angeles branches of the Better Business Bureau? Didn’t a wealthy internet entrepreneur start this company, after buying up lots of domain names and creating false Pet Blogs and Vet Advice websites which are just extensions of the company’s advertising? They look unrelated at first, but are the same thing. Notice how Search Rngine Optimization seems to be used by this group to trick Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc. to give Search Results that are unnaturally stacked with a long list if bogus articles and blogs — all leading straight back to Pet Amber Alert? Are Fidofind and FindToto different names for the exact same operation? Seems there is much, much more to this story. A good place to start is the website called PeopleIWantToPunchInTheThroat.com, a wry bu serious site started by a well-known reporter and occasional comedienne? This isn’t what it seems to be.

I made several attempts to contact Pet Amber Alert for this report, but could never get to a human on the phone, or an option to leave a voice mail message. The link to contact them through email did not respond.

I would beg to differ with Mr. Mark Jakubczak’s reply. I tried to cancel my service with this company only to find the log information they gave me wouldn’t allow me access to cancel. When I emailed, four days prior to their deadline to “extend their service’ (subscription as they call it) and left a phone message I was ignored and then billed four days later. To this day no one will return my phone calls and when I threatened to contact the local authorities I finally received a curt email saying they do not accept email or phone cancelations. Further, their $100 money back guarantee is cleverly worded to only include add-on’s, making it highly suspect. In and on-line chat I was also denied this refund as the ‘refund link’ was never on the website. When I brought this to their attention the chat was conveniently closed. An answering service always answers, but you never get to speak to the owner or anyone affiliated with the company. I should’ve demanded my money back from the beginning when it took them three days to make any calls or send out posters. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt, but now think if I hadn’t called to confirm they were doing something, they may not have done anything. To this day I’ve only had one company tell me they received a faxed poster and only one of my neighbors say they got a call from them. How sad that they are taking advantage of people already in distress over a lost pet. Incidentally, when I asked the ‘receptionist’ for the name of the owner, she gave me ROBERT Jakubczak. Interesting he is using two different names. I would not recommend them on your site.

We process over 500 alerts per month and offer two kinds of services!

Findtoto only offers phone alerts, and on average they do about 100-150 alerts per month.

With our kind of volume, sometimes mistakes happen and if they do we always close the case in the customers favor.
