Another database scam - future build uk

[andystew]

Just to give you all a heads up.

company future build uk, or fpb uk.

call and ask you to ring their boss the following day, he's got some work he wants doing.
ring back, he's not available but his supervisor is, the works not for him its for a large job in leeds not his home starting in a couple of weeks. are you interested??:drool5:

all you need do is join the database which is free however they need to do a background check to ensure you're a reputable business, this costs them £200 plus vat so thats all you have to pay! smells a bit funny??

did a bit of digging and they came up on a few sites and it seems they are running an identical scam to a BTD (same story same costs etc).

hope this helps people not get sucked in.

ps. sorry for rattling on but i'm very angry.:mad2::mad2:

Thanks for the info Andy.

Personally, I don't pay to get any work. If a potential customer wants to verify me and my work they are free to do whatever investigations they wish AT THEIR COST!

These scumbags just prey on the vulnerable that don't have much work - I hate them!

We have that kind of Bravo Sierra over here, as well.:incazzato:

It's worth noting that the firm will probably change their name quite a bit. So don't just look out for the mentioned name or two, just generally be as wary as Sir Ramic and you'll not get diddled.
