    Talking of used car dealers... Reading this

    and the scheme was unbelievably complicated to my eyes. Makes those EBT schemes seem simple in comparison.

    Sample quote:
    The rather unusual consideration for that assignment was to consist of the payment of £100, and attendance by the assignee before a solicitor practising in London in order to recite the name of the Trader, “pray to the God of the Christian church for World Peace” and obtain from the no doubt bemused solicitor a certificate that those actions had been performed (“the Prayer Condition”).

    Without going into detail there also appear to be links with SmartPay, who have been discussed on here before (back in 2008) and an number of other Umbrella/High retention schemes.

    I'm also pretty sure the sole director of this company has very little to do with the running of the business seeing as he appears to be a conceptual artist and son of the chap who actually set up the company.

    Essentially it sounds like a duck, quacks like a duck, but doesn't seem to be a duck. Anyone got similar marketing emails or are part of schemes that keep money in UK and take home 90%?
