Done it.....
Welcome to the forum. Although you can post in any forum, the USA forum is here in case of local regs or laws
Funnily enough I was contacted early last year, police,fire and ambulance service magazine, all sounded legit, guy wanted £15.00 up front so paid it (stuipd i know) then the magazine did arrive and was very very basic and full of spelling mistakes and errors. I spoke to the police and they had never heard of it (suprise suprise). I then got a call from a guy in liverpool who had heard the company had been taken to court and he was getting his money back after he paid it all!!!!
Me? I walked away £15 down the swanny but it could have been worse, now all i get is "I can get you on the first page of google".......it never ends!
What's the address in Liverpool?
I'm lost. The fella who took you £15 was also getting scammed?I didn't have his address, he had also been scammed but had paid the full amount, where as I only paid a deposit.
VAT Registration Numbers
UK CORPORATE PORTAL 2013
Received a letter from GERMANY today and thought I'd put a warning on here.
Starts off telling you that due to the change to the EU economic package (?!) all companies are obligated to provide their Vat Number and this lovely company require you to return the enclosed form with your details - at no cost (ahem)
Turn to page 2 and you will find in the small print (!) that you will actually be charged £797 anually and this will apply for the next 3years plus a further year if not terminated in writing !!!!!!!
They don't ask for bank details at this stage but you are invoiced and hounded for the fees because you will have signed a "legally binding" document and......... "German Law applies"
Ignore it.
Combined Maintenance Services require a Heating & Plumbing Engineer to maintain a 12 month contract for a minimum of 390 domestic rental properties within the “M” Postcode area.
This came through the other day - £2100 upfront.
Just had a call from "Corgi" checking my details which they knew, rattling them off.
Started to go into his spiel, next, where I told him I didn't think he was with Corgi and terminated the call.
Turns out this number 0800108579 is used by Yell...... so just be warned.
I have a few off these types of calls recently. If they try & sell me anything or say they are going to advertise my company. Dont trust any of them sharks.
