Show Notes
I have been contacted by some villains who are trying to extract some cash from desperate easyjet passengers and here's how it works at the moment. As you will know, 180,000 passengers journeys have been canceled by easyjet. And there's a great deal of pressure people trying to contact the airline and find out what their rights are, get compensation, rebook on sensible flights on other airlines, all that stuff. And so what the scammers do is really very straightforward, appallingly easy.
I take you through my experience to show you how to not fall foul.
