We all receive invoices in the mail, it’s normal business practice. What we need to be is vigilant about which ones we pay. When a reasonable enough request for an unreasonable sum of money comes your way, be suspicious. Two separate clients this week received the same bogus notification to cough up $1300+ in order to safeguard their business trademark. Upon closer inspection we were able to determine that these were, indeed, unscrupulous attempts at *trying it on*. Before you feel tempted to part with your $$$s, be aware of the scams that abound to collect payment under false pretences, or the phishing schemes that feed off your confidential information and can seriously harm the integrity of your business. Remember, your business is none of theirs...unless you choose to make it so. If in doubt, contact us for an evaluation of your particular situation.
