Same deal as the above person: "I was contacted by a company called Shark Finds out of Coral Springs, FL. They said that there research team found my company and that they wanted to do a media campaign around my products. They also claim that this company is one of Kevin Harrington's companies, the original Shark on the program Shark Tank. The video and marketing tools that are used are very believeable."
First of all, i did a whois search at www.sharkfinds.com and the registrar is PRIVATE , meaning whoever is behind this scam is hidden, nobody knows their names, and addresses. Second, I actually got a call and when I asked to send me the physical address, they sent me the above address: 11555 Heron Bay Blvd, Suite 200 , which is listed as one of those temporary / virtual offices....another proof this people are scammers:

Something seemed a little off when I talked with them. I also tried researching this company and found nothing good or bad until I found ththe Rip Off Report.
Here is a part of a letter that I received:
Based on our conversation, the team of Kevin Harrington is in the process of finalizing the scheduling for an upcoming Direct Response TV (DRTV) media campaign. We are interested in featuring XXX. Both the :30 and :60 second spots will air a combination of 202 times nationally and regionally on top national cable networks in the U.S. specifically selected to match your customers' demographic and geographic profile.
$19,900 USD is the total scheduling fee. Keep in mind, the Senior Product Manager will go over timing and visual aspects of the project and answer any questions you may have. The Senior Product Manager and I will speak with you on XXX
Also got contacted by these people. Fist their domain registration is set to PRIVATE , meaning nobody want to know who they really are:
