New scam all the way from sunny spain

Posted by Busy Bee Garden Services Limited on June 30, 2012 at 1:32pm

I had a letter today that looked on the face of it like a offical document, they wanted a few company details to go on a data base and all the details said just that, however when one reads the small print it looks like you have agreed to a advert costing 997 euros for the next 3 years, of course the fact it comes from overseas rings alearm bells, but I could see how easy it could be to get sucked in.

 

Just warning other members in case its landscape type business there are targeting now!

    If it is the same as I have seen before, this is a pretty odious type of scam, as it gives the impression that your entry is free whereas you are committing yourself to a hefty bill for a pretty ineffectual advertising vehicle.
