Secuirties LLC recently offered me over the
current price for some shares I owned for an hostile
takeover, at first their web site looked OK, but there
was no registration number on it, no external links to
it, it was new site and a very low page ranking, I was
overcome by greed and paid for lunch. I am now £3.50 out
of pocket, but did not pay the £5,000 insuarance bond to
guarantee that the deal went through
Web sites can be put up quickly and with templates
available look very professional, it is getting hard for
me to spot a scam.
Electricty is a common scam, in the UK we should pay
about 9p per unit but some will try to charge 17p
