SMEs Caution and warning at CAEN DISTRIBUTION SAS enquiries via www.caen-distribution.com

SME: Caution or warning for requests from a CAEN DISTRIBUTION SAS via the new page www.caen-distribution.com

Again we have received an enquiry for goods, of which we want to warn other SMEs. The procedure is very similar to last year’s very well done fraud attempt!

In the report HERE we have reported in great detail on this and also received very positive feedback from some companies. The FAKE page was then very quickly removed from the Internet.

This site could be used again for apparently lucrative product fraud attempts – therefore we publish this warning here. Once the goods are shipped, the goods are gone – but the money never arrives.

It seems that again the identity of a French company was assumed on the Internet and a probably fake onlineThe purchase of food and cheese via the Internet. A big and very interesting topic in this area will probably be the easy and quick access to specialties such as - for examle - cheese. » More info site www.caen-distribution.com was built.

That’s probably because the real company on France does hardly any activities on the Internet and you can’t find anything except a phone number on google maps. The new online site CAEN DISTRIBUTION also has no imprint and does not fulfil any other legal requirements.

Conspicuous features in the online research on CAEN DISTRIBUTION SAS that should lead to distrust

Our conclusion to SME companies: With inquiries which are too beautiful to be true ⇒ simply do not succumb to the temptation and switch on the common sense. And if you enter the international business world with payment terms, then please only with confirmed bank guarantee of your bank or confirmed letter of credit as payment security. Fault insurance offers no protectionTo protect the cheese wheel, it is put into salt bath or turned into dry salt. The salt removes water from the cheese and it dries faster. So the rind is formed. » More info in the case of fraud with a fictitious corporate identity.
