"If your business has been impacted by this, we encourage you to make contact with our office on info@asbfeo.gov.au or phone 1300 650 460 or lodge a dispute with us online.

"We are aware of other businesses still operating that offer 'no cost' or 'cost neutral' in-store or online advertising packages and warn small businesses to be extremely cautious of any approaches that they might receive.

"This follows the collapse of Viewble Media and The Shoppers Network that has created serious issues for the businesses involved."
