Beware of Fraudelent Canon offers

***Dave*** · 08-09-2006, 12:46

Statement released by Canon is as follows:

Please be aware that there has been a fraudulent online promotional offer suggesting that Canon digital camera products can be purchased for unreasonably low prices directly from Canon. This may include the Canon logo, company name and/or product images. This is in no way associated with Canon Inc. or any Canon Group companies.

When asked about the warning, a spokesperson for Canon UK said, "Canon don't sell cameras directly, we only sell consumables through our website."

Any websites claiming to be selling cameras directly from Canon should be treated with suspicion.
