some guy claiming to be from dlook or vlook, asking me for my bussiness details and when i questioned him as i dont advertise online unless via gumtree he hung up

I just got the same call. I recently registered a business on bloo.com.au and truelocal.com.au, so these guys at DLOOK must be skimming these directories and cold calling new listings for their own profit. Stay away from DLOOK!

dLook are an Australian Online business directory based in Sydney, Australia. Established in 2006, dLook provides free and premium online advertising solutions to Australian small businesses. See our site: www.dlook.com.au

a guy just called me from this number saying he was from an online advertising company and when i politely declined he was very rude and hung up on me! not a good way to do business!!

I got a call from a foreign guy from Vlook (Could have been Dlook as I was driving and hard to hear) he said he was updating their database. Don't know what for and I couldn't hear so asked again what they do, again something about online directory then he said he needed to ask questions for security verifacations. I asked again who he was and what he really wanted he started saying something then hung up.
If I gave him my full name date of birth, address and he already has my phone number then he has all he needs to call my bank and play with my bank account.
Be Warned.
P.S. to mr Dlook, if it is a real company they need better business practices or they will go broke.

Clown, our call team does not require date of birth - we are a business directory only verifying business details.
