The Scammer

Posted by aegb on April 16, 2008

I was talking in another recent post about being legal and having all the right information on your website.

I was reading a forum recently and a person there had purchased tickets for a popular music venue. When no email arived confirming payment, the person became suspicious and was concerned that she may have been scammed. The site looked well built and normal, just like any other site until you looked closer and there was no address on the website, not one contact detail. Unfortunately this person didn’t check the details but so many customers do and they are aware of scammers.

Not adding contact details to your website not only renders you illegal in the eyes of Trading Standards but will also limit the amount of customers that you will have. Always check the DTI guidelines www.berr.gov.uk
