Today I received an envelope addressed to my company in the mail from EBN (European business number, Netherlands department)
It looked official and impressive, it had a return envelope.
I needed to return the form to : EBN, PO BOX 11 35 58, 20435 Hamburg.
It had some forms inside, that I needed to fill in and return, looked almost legit.
No big deal right, fill in and return?
But I read all the small print (gray on lighter gray) too, and it is a deception, when you return this form you actually sign a contract with a company DAD GmbH in Germany for 977 euro per year. They will put your name on a website for this amount of cash.
It is clearly stated in the small print on grey paper, EBN is not related to any organisation or institution of the European Union or Commission.
My advise, do not open, just throw it in the trash immediately! Not worth the time or money.
Have a good day!
