Legal Advice on Fraud: Get Help

Questioner

A company ripped me off. They offered to reserve my website name with .eu for a period of 10 years. The story is that someone wants to abuse my name. Unfortunately I agreed, and received an invoice for 10 years. Now it turns out that reserving for 10 years is not possible. She reserved for one year. I asked for a credit note for 10 years. received a payment reminder Referred to my previous request for a credit note. Received threat of bailiff. referred again to my request for credit note. Yesterday she responded to my message. They say it doesn't matter whether they reserve for 1 year and then extend it. In my opinion, 10 x 1 year is not equal to the agreement. The agreement is to reserve for 10 years. Are they right or am I right that is my question. By the way, I see this transaction as unnecessary and a money-making scheme. But unfortunately, selling hot air is not prohibited. I hope to receive an answer from you soon
