Again, we join the voice of proPellets.ch in raising awareness about scams, found on the web, related to pellet supply. We reproduce the press release in full below.
Beware, pellet scammers!
Oct.4, 2022
Pellet fraud is on the rise in Switzerland. In scam attempts, pellets are offered at low prices on social networks and ad websites. Sometimes even the names of pellet companies are misused. But after an advance payment comes the nasty surprise: nothing is delivered.
Don't be fooled by false offers! Buy pellets from a reputable dealer in your region. On our website you will find a directory of "real" pellet suppliers in your region:
Always call these companies using the official phone numbers. This way you are on the safe side.
The price of "real" pellets may seem high compared to last year, because the rise in energy prices has not stopped with pellets. But environmentally friendly pressed wood pellets are still 13 percent cheaper than gas. The reasons for the increase in pellet prices can be found in proPellets.ch's press release dated July 5, 2022.
