This company has been sending out this scam for a number of years, and their offices are usually listed as being in Edinborough all addresses are false, or relate to some obscur business like a laudrette for instance. Trading standards have been interested in this lot and any information you could provide might be useful
 
Don't forget the VAT.......

These scumbags have been "charging" VAT....... has the vatman ever received any of it?
 
I got into a slanging match with one of these scouse scumbags on the phone last month, I was already in a fould mood and ready for an arugument so I took it out on this guy.

The langauge I used was appauling to say the least, I called him all the F and C words under the sun before he hung up.

What impresses me about this is that you got the guy to hang up on you.

What were the F & C words - Focus & Concentrate?.

I am, at the moment, waiting on around 20 court cases ( apparently ) to recover monies that I agreed to for their advertising and work leads.

Looking forward to my month in court.

Salivating at hearing the verbal contracts and conversations played out to a court room.

But at least at the end of the day - it a global curse.
I thought it was only me that put up with their carp!
 
Hi All,

Following on from the many threads about this scam, unfortunately, we have been their latest victim. CMS UK property management as they are at he moment emailed about a AL postcode contract. Unfortunately we did not see all the bad publicity until it was too late.
Just another warning… please please do not reply to this company!! They are complete frauds. We have reported them to every body we can including Action Fraud, the banks, Trading Standards, Watchdog, Crimestoppers etc. Action Fraud have confirmed they are investigating them in an effort to stop them. THEY MUST BE STOPPED!!!!
 
Here we go again....... a phone call from some scouser, claiming to be involved with the police etc, trying to sell advertising in a publication.

I believe trading standards finally shut them down, a couple of years ago, but they appear to be back and up to their old tricks.

Pass on a warning, as you bimble around the sites....... these people are scammers, you get nothing in return for your money.

Traders Beware ? Scam Targeting Trades PeopleAdscams.co.uk - Charity Advertising Scam Warning | Adscams.co.uk - Charity Advertising Scam Warning...... sadly it's usually the newbies that get taken in by this scum.

Just googled the number they used, I'm not the first...... http://whocallsme.com/Phone-Number.aspx/07557394669
