Bobbykins Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I run a chambres d'hotes and just today received a letter in the post. This was in the form of an invoice from a company called EPAGE from Les Lilas, it has been professionally designed and asks for a payment of 297,44€ to inscribe on their site, it also has a section at the bottom to go with a cheque or fill in with your R.I.B. THIS IS A SCAM. You have been warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceni Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Perhaps this is a modern version of a subscription to/an advert in a trades directory. The scary thing is that there must be an awful lot of gullibles around to make it worthwhile.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOther Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 As John says, a variant of a very very old scam which, in the UK at least, has been around for donkeys years.At nearly €300 they probably only need 1 or 2 respondents to cover their production and mailing costs after which it's all profit.Individuals with a small CdH are unlikelyto fall for it but some bigger organisations might just pay it withoutrealising.
