INSURANCE SCAM

I had been getting a lot of sales calls to buy Life Insurance by from a Shawn A Parker at R. E. Lee International. I told him I was not interested in Life Insurance since I am already covered through my own business. However, he said that their insurance might supplement what I have and they would send me some information and sign me up. I told him that he could send me information if he wanted to but do NOT sign me up. He did anyway. Then they started debiting AED 2,000 out of my personal account every month without my authority. I called Shawn and the office to cancel but they advised me that I was on a 2 year term which they could not cancel although I stated I DID NOT wish to be registered, I demanded they provide me with contractual proof which to this date they haven't. I discovered that they obtained my contact and account details through a 3rd party finance firm which they sold to various private insurance companies. I looked up the company online, called them then had to argue with a very aggressive guy for like 20 minutes before he finally cancelled the insurance. Before he agreed to cancel he also told me I was a bad parent for cancelling and that he would give me 6 months free if I kept it. I just had to keep saying NO over and over again. I never did get a refund for the premiums they took out of my bank account without my permission. And I still get the occasional call from the company trying to sell me life insurance, even though I called and emailed the office several times to stop contacting me. So I think this is a scam by Shawn Parker and R. E. Lee International and if he calls you to sell you insurance just hang up!!

I took the liberty to do a background check on Shawn Parker and these were the details I located for him, it appears he's a Canadian citizen, full name Shawn Andrew Parker Canadian Passport BA880259 born December 4, 1973;

I also found 2 facebook accounts linked for him which is peculiar, they are;

Company details are;

Also found his wife Nicole Parker who seems very pleasant however, unsure whether she is involved (presumably not as she has her own fitness business);

If anyone should solicit a call from Shawn Parker please be cautious about the information you are giving and what he may potentially already have on you. Put the phone down and do not speak to him, it's reasonably easy to identify him as he has a Canadian accent.

For the safety of other innocent people I will ensure I post on as many sites as possible and aim to keep you updated with current progress.

Be careful out there people.
