Fraudulent offers about VAT number

The European Commission has issued warnings to companies to be wary of fraudulent offers to obtain VAT numbers in exchange for advance payments. More information can be found on the EC's website at:

Several months ago, the ACFCI (assembly of French Chamber of commerce abroad) warned  different departments at the European Commision about theses illegal commercial practices being offered by  some companies to  numerous young professionals.
