Bert,
Appreciate the feedback.
When someone pays their fee we send a Purchase Confirmation. That
confirmation states:
This is not a VAT invoice.
A final VAT invoice will be sent with all the required VAT
information within 45 days. Instructions will be included on the
process to follow to recover the VAT paid by qualified attendees or
their employers. The invoice for your participation will be issued
by VMC, 14-30 rue de Mantes, 92700 Colombes / France, French VAT
Number: FR75523098614; Czech VAT Number: CZ682761770.
Perhaps notice to the list would have been helpful.

Don,
VMC, an affiliate of BC&A, are authorized agents that are providing
VAT-compliant invoices in order that you or your employer may file for
a VAT refund, if entitled.

Hi
Anyone else get an odd invoice email from VMC SASU for the 93^rd IETF.
Subject:
93rd IETF July 19-24, 2015, Prague, Czech Republic - Invoice n° 00000088
I put it in junk and did not open the email (already have my official
invoice when I paid a few weeks ago.) It also wanted a read
receipt.
Looks like a fishing attack on the IETF registration to me.
Cheers,
Don
