Businesses are advised to check invoices carefully to avoid processing and paying fraudulent invoices.

Businesses should pay special attention during holiday periods, and good accounts record keeping can help identify any anomalies.

Article Abstract:
Businesses wishing to apply for an European Commission grant should be wary of fraudulent grant service providers. Any grant service which advertises from an unidentified address is suspicious and should be avoided. Reputable consultancy services do not charge commission on top of professional charges. Service fees should be returned when a grant is not secured.
