Bogus booking

Post by annafern »

Hi

Not quite a scam but a warning if you have your own integrated booking system.

A booking came in the early hours of the morning yesterday from a Cyndi Regalado, but no payment!

No payments sometimes happens when someone breaks the link during payment process and the booking is held as a provisional.

Once I started looking closely at the details I released it was a bogus booking and just wanted to warn people as they're nothing worse than a provisional booking taking up space in your calendar.

Two main reasons why I deleted the booking immediately!

Postal address not correct- Postcode different from street name
The email came from @besttempmail.com (Fake mail generator)

Thanks
Anna
