Did you book through “bookitbee”? They were apparently emailing people about it

Given that there seems to be nothing on their FB pages from real people (or even fake people) and no mention anywhere of the supposedly held Sheffield and Birmingham events (the Birmingham one having been supposedly in Sutton Park, London),' and their internet domain is up for grabs, I think it stinks like a week-old fish. Sorry, princesszee. (According to FB, they are very responsive and reply to messages within an hour, so maybe message via FB?) |

Yeah I did book it through bookitbee but didn’t read the email I got in August properly. What a numpty I am. It wasn’t an expensive one but sad that people get conned out of money x

Looks like the same folks that had a previous scam catch out another Fetchie this year. Aside from the Running Clinic being a shower of crooks, it’s also a bit sh*t that Bookitbee are still taking bookings for them. fetcheveryone.com/forum__59806__1__is_the_race_to_the_summit_glasgow_to_ben_nevis_race_a_scam May be worth fmailing tricialitt from the above thread and see if/how she got a refund? |

There was a thread on RW a while back about Running Clinic "events". Total scam. Credit card might be your best/quickest means of refund.
