I've had a message left on my answer machine from john Henderson at combined maintenance

obvioudly after reading this thread, I won't be calling him back
 
Kay-jay it`s better said EN CERVEZA HAY FELICIDAD- IN BEER THERE IS JOY, well that`s in spanish mate if it`s any help.
 
Had one of these jokers contact me a couple of weeks ago and played them along to get them to send some info and draft contracts so I could give something to Action Fraud. If people have time to do this and all forward these scam details to Action Fraud there's more chance of getting them shut down.
 
Thank you very much for your warnings regarding Combined Maintenance Services Ltd. I too today "won" a contract with these people for gas and plumbing CP12s and servicing within the SM postcode. I was requested to esign a contract which was previously signed by them and also to make a BACS or CHAPS payment of £2400 to be received by close of business today. This is prior to any work or any value of guaranteed work being established. The conversation I had was that I would be drip fed as not to flood my diary and over commit myself to my current work loads. If I have not had found this forum I probably would have gone ahead and signed the contract and paid the money. I am so grateful for your comments and warnings. Thank you for saving me £2,400 incl. VAT. Names mentioned are Ross Black, James, Phil and Jonathan are all names that are in the conference call which is very professional and sounds authentic and lasts around 45 mins. I am no mug but almost fell for this as at the end of it all when I was awarded the contract and asked how I felt about being awarded the contract I was jubilant. Since reading from this forum I am in no doubt that this too from Combined Maintenance Services Ltd is an utter scam. It did sound too good to be true but they are very convincing, they even have a twitter account!!
I take heed of all of what the forum have said and truly do believe that if anyone is unsure then these are these are the forums to look at. Thank you so much.
 
Glad you weren't mugged off.
Ps, I expect that your gratitude will extend to a donation towards the whip in 'The Plumbers Arms' ;)
 
I have had a recent call from a company FFFC which is a charity for cancer? I told them to send me some info about 2 weeks ago and I have had anything? Anyone know of this?
