Google advertising

[cherry]

I had a phone call today about advertising with Google, as I was busy I asked them to email me the details.
I just wondered if anyone else has had this call and if it's any good.

Here's the email.

I've never heard of them but it's a lot of money!

I have taken out their address details etc so we don't give them free advertising... especially if they are a con!
