[SCAM] Equivalangue: Non-paying agency

This is a quick warning to my translator colleagues: don’t work with the French translation agency called Equivalangue. Don’t be tricked by their long presence in the business, they are non-payers. I worked for them last April on a rather large project, and haven’t heard of them since, despite sending several reminders.

Other translators have already been scammed by this agency, as their Blue Board page shows, so be careful.
