Beware of "accounting-seo.com" - it Appears to Be Untrustworthy

We have received a good number of emails from accounting-seo.com demanding payment for what we thought was a free service at the time from the EU. We made the mistake of responding today, asking her to stop threatening us based on the fact we did not recall having an agreement with such as a company. Joanna, or whoever is using that email, replied with an attached signed IO and sent an invoice.

But, accounting-seo.com is a new website created approximately 6 months ago and hides it domain information. Their website is not real, it is a splash page with no information about the service they offer. The information on the page belongs to their hosting provider, who creates a default page until their customers create their own.

The Website www.accounting-seo.com

This is what the people behind the website do, they trick you into signing up for a free service, then send an invoice requesting payment, threaten legal action if payment is not received to frighten people into making payment.

We have one more week until our Credit Department sends your file for cost collection.

You will receive a letter in which we inform the amount increase this procedure entails, as well as the date and contact details of the debt collection office.

In case you manage to effect payment in time to avoid such procedures, please send the proof of wire in reply latest end of this week- 7th of December, 2018.

I am sending this formal message describing the situation of your company’s financial account, unsettled for now three months.

Three weeks after our Credit Department has forwarded your file to a debt collection agency, they have received a positive answer and your account will be taken over and handled legally.

The legal fee they charge will be added to your current debt of EUR 1129,-, if your company’s financial account remains unsolved.

Unless you have reconsidered the non-payment of the invoice issued for the registration service your company has requested and missed the settlement for (invoice was due on 27/08/2018 and was penalized on the 22nd of October, 2018) – please contract your Legal representative and provide his/her contact details for our records and future communication which will imply legal procedures of the above-detailed debt recovery process.

Best regards,

    Dear Sir,

    On behalf of the company, Mr. Cxxxxxxx is not authorized to order one.

    The invoice you have cut us cannot be valid. We don't know the content. We have not received any services from you.

    We will not make any payment. If an order was made, I would like to cancel it.

    I will give information to our legal advisors.

    I am writing according to your introductory mail mentioned below."
