Core Media Concepts (post from our old forum)
Posted on April 1st, 2009 No commentsBy ColinP (Taken from our old forum) Just a heads up, a company called Core Media Concepts (a trading name for Carroll-Dillon Publishing) have started up this practice and are contacting small businesses claiming a prior agreement to pay for a run of books aimed at school kids.The best advice is, if they send an invoice and sample (which they did to me), is to return the whole lot recorded and report it to Trading Standards for further investigation.
