I nearly got done by some books for schools scam as apparently I’d pledged to give them a few hundred quid months back, which school did I want the book to go to, the book is wonderful, very informative, where would I like my company advert placing, what would I like the compliments slip to say that would go out with the books etc, where would I like the invoice to go to, we’ll give you a discount for credit card payment now (ALARM BELLS, ALARM BELLS)
The women I was talking to were very persuasive, very slick. I of course had no memory of pledging money to their cause (because I didn’t) and so challenged them and was put through to another equally slick, persuasive woman.
Apparently they record all calls so they’d get back with the recording of me saying Id pledged £x for my advert and to sponsor the book or i could pay by card for a discount.- errrrm, no thanks, I’ll wait to hear my recording of me sponsoring the book thanks…surprisingly, no recording or invoice ever arrived.
I didn’t pay of course but I was shocked that I nearly had…
bitches!
