None of the companies exist

Replying to [blinky]:
Just want to point out that not all UK businesses have to be registered as Companies - many small businesses operate as sole traders - and this does not always mean that they are a one man band!

UK company registration brings a lot of red tape!

further sometimes a mobile can be a main contact point for small businesses, if they are out on the road drumming up sales!!!
theres no point in sitting in an office waiting for sales to happen - sometimes you just have to go get them!

So please think twice before passing such sweeping judgements - you just might be condemning an honest and reliable supplier........

Replying to [emmauk]:Its very simple by looking at their phone number.....++44702XXX that is a typical number of a scammer....That NPA belons to a company that forwards call overseas.....One way to check is call the voice number.....If it rings with a UK tone then MAYBE he is for real (but careful)....But if the ringing is not typical of the UK you are in for a surprise.

I use a software to track my e-mails that tells me when it was open and from where......In real time......The application is called Mailinfo (http://www.mailinfo.com/web/) its free and they cant hide.

Send the potential supplier an e-mail (after installing Mailinfo) and you will see where he opened from. I will bet you $ 100.00 that if you send an e-mail to that guy Mailinfo will come back and say some different country when the supplier will swear on his mother that is in the UK.

Also and very good counter attack is to put a tracking application in your website....It will tell you from what IP address you were visisted and from what country......Lure the supplier to your site.....

Replying to [hot stuff]:

Dude,

It is clear that you know nothing about this rogue trader yourself and as such cannot conribute anything useful to the actual topic. Nor have you seen fit to visit the links that accompany my findings or you would be able to see for yourself that the man is in fact a scammer.

If anyone is making a sweeping judgement it is you my friend as you seem to think you can dispute my considered, expert opinion without bothering to offer anything helpful or even cohesive.

I will try not to help anyone else out in future so you needn't worry about things.

Replying to [emmauk]:This guy is definately a scammer it took me 5 mins of looking on the web
this is one of his scams
