Hi

I had a call from the above company offering me 2 weeks for £80. All I have to do is sit in a meeting at the resort for 90 minutes. I have heard of this before and I know there are some honest companies out there but it all sounds too good to be true.
HAs anyone heard of them or shall I run a mile?

Thought so - can't find any reviews online from anyone - which is very odd!

Cheers

Looks like they may just have registered as a company in June this year.

Wow - even scarier

It's not even a real web site yet, just a random name which has been parked. The registrant (in Gibraltar) seems to specialise in cybersquatting - beating legitimate owners of trade and company names to register them first.

You guys are good - they are calling me back on Thursday so I will give them hell!!!!

Were you in fact contacted by www.makemyholidays.net - just one letter different. It actually seems more likely as it really exists - even though the site itself refers to 'problems contacting them by phone', so perhaps it is all an Indian call-centre!

Fly/ buy, registered May 08, and appearing to cover UK Australia and NZ. It is India registered and clearly related to this one www.mhril.com/aboutus.asp
because of some of the phrases used are the same.

Definitely a new one on the block - and I still wouldn't touch it.

That sounds right - it was an asian lady who said she was calling from London but the delay was obvious. As long as other people don't fall for it - she put up a good resistance to my questions. Thanks again
