Hello all,
i am just wondering if anyone has been caught out by the scams that i fell for.
Companies are ringing up saying that they rang a few months previous and you agreed to advertise in their mag and they will be forwarding the proof of the ad and then shortly after that the bill normally around £195. Being quite new to all this i fell for it a couple of times at the end of last year and it ended up costing me approx £650. I had another one call today and said she spoke to me at the beginning of this year (i know thats not true as i am doing very limited advertising this year and i wouldnt of agreed to any of it) and she was just checking what size ad i wanted, i told her that i had NOT agreed to anything and when i asked for the company name and phone number she hung up.
please be warned about these companies, i wouldnt want any of you to get caught
