Default scratchtelecom.com - Any Experience?

I don't want to link to these guys directly, since I'm still very suspicious.

I received a telemarketing solicitation from them yesterday and, while I wouldn't normally call it back, they did happen to mention that they offer VPN hosting in the Greater Toronto Area, which a client of mine is after for a proposed Microsoft CRM server.

The problem that I have is that I don't know a thing about them, I've never heard of them, and I can't find anything on them.

So has anyone heard of these guys?

Hey Adam, did anything progress with these guys ?

I got a phone message, then a week later a follow up email from them as well.

One thing that peeved me, in their email was
These offers are time limited and will not be repeated!

There's nothing worse than a line, that basically says, buy from us or else!

I would have thought that too, but I've asked for quotes from five other companies for the same thing and gotten one quote total.

Hello Adam,

I am an employee of Scratch Telecom. I believe the account executive who cold called you did not provide a quote because he is no longer with the company for various reasons. Please feel free to contact me directly should you need any quotes or have any comments.

Email: adam@scratchtelecom.com
Phone: 1-866-367-7608 ext: 201

Sorry for any inconvenience this event may have caused you.

Regards,
Adam Amer
Scratch Telecom Canada

Thanks, Adam, but a decision was already reached on the subject.
