As a continuation of the above thread i recived a call of a similar nature this morning.
Essentially they were saying that a local competitor was trying to register the comapny name(which is slightly different to the brand), but we could do it first.
Very convincing method of selling, sufficiently worried admin staff.
I did get a telephone number and name
<snip>
and a name <snip> - when pushed he said <snip>.
However it was nice to see sitting at the top of Google link to this forum.
They didnt have any info, but gave me a webaddress <snip> which doesn`t work

[edit reason] A bit too specific ;-) , hence the snips. [/edit]
I'm glad you found us. Do stick around.
This tactic has become quite commonplace and, yes, it does worry many people that get these calls.
