If you notice projects for anyone involved with Alis Technologies or individuals with e-mail addresses that end with @alis.com, make sure you check the Agency Blue Board for CRITICAL information. Check by the company name, but also check for the individual\'s name. They are not always identifying their company.



Two jobs posted by [email protected] are 34947 and 34945.



Be EXTREMELY careful!

Re: yahoo groups, reference from from maria Apr 13, 2003

Thanks to Maria for your comment, but, um, this is not really helpful for people who are not \"part of the club.\" :



\"Sorry, this group is available to members ONLY.

You are not allowed to access this group. \"



I personally have heard bad things about yahoo clubs (e.g. viruses). I do appreciate your willingness to help here but wonder how useful this really is? Any comments here are more than welcome.



Best regards,

Hi Michele,

As far as this particular case is concerned, the Blue Board entry is clear enough, I guess.



However, you cannot assume that\'s always going to be the case. Most alternative lists are on Yahoogroups; given that you\'re in Germany, Zahlungspraxis is probably most relevant from your perspective.



Regarding your concern, I can share my experience (being a member in 21 Yahoogroups): spam yes, viruses no. Nothing a decent filter or a mouse click couldn\'t get rid of...



HTH - best, Ralf

I find Payment Practices very useful. You only have to subscribe to the list to have access to the database.

Dear Michele,

Just to support what Maria was saying:

I\'ve found Payment Practices to be a helpful list. You can subscribe via their website at http://www.trwenterprises.com/payment_practices.htm.
