  • Are you Doing Enough To Keep Outside IR35 - Virus in email

    Just a heads up, got an email purporting to be from someone called "The Contractor Support Network" titled

    Are you Doing Enough To Keep Outside IR35?
    Which has send my emails virus scanning into overdrive and flagged as a virus.

    Best keep an eye out if you get one too

Working...
