How to identify scam and bad selling products without making a background check – a translation between promotion and reality

The following list give you an overview how you can identify a scammer and bad selling products without making a background check - only by reading their offers with an open mind:

  • Earnings in the spotlight
    Every advertising, which puts the amount of earnings into the spotlight, is nothing else than scam. As higher the promoted earnings are, as less reachable they will be for the case it is not a scam.

  • Pay per sale
    Even the client knows that his product is hard to sell.  If the client has an easy selling product, than he would offer only an hourly rate for the sales people.Each business is done for making profit. Nobody likes to pay more than absolutely necessary.

  • High commission per sale
    As higher the promised commission per sale is as more difficult is it to sell the product. Nobody likes to pay more than it is absolutely necessary to find someone to doing the work.

  • Offer without a picture of a real person or of a celebrity
    The salesperson already cannot show his face in public.  Maybe he/she has scammed already some people and need to hide himself for this purpose. It is also possible that such a person gets searched already by the police or Interpol. They are browsing the social networks too.

  • Offers without an email address
    Such an offer is only a time waster. Such people even don’t know that the world has 24 time zones and are expecting that everybody is waiting for them.

  • Calling data (phone numbers with names) are not provided by the client
    Address agencies are already to expensive for the client. He expect that you are making with already heavy used data a big business. Hopefully the client will be able to pay the center for their work,

  • “genuine” offers
    Where is only written about a “genuine” campaign or product  than it is only scam. The person, who is offering something like that, does not even know what he is offering.

  • Email me for more details
    That is only a time waster. Such people are only collecting email addresses. Maybe they can sell It somewhere. A normal salesperson will describe his product very well, because he has less work with false requests in this case. Why he should make more work for himself than necessary.

  • Call me for more details
    That is even a larger time waster. Such a person is already afraid from the written words, which can get used against him. For this he likes to speak only. Such offers are in each case only a scam.

  • Act fast phrases like "Last Chance", "Limited Slots", "Limited Seats", "HURRY UP", etc.
    The best translation would be: Don’t prove the offer or make a background check. In such a case you’ll find the scam immediately.

  • Any upfront fees – however they are getting called
    That is the plumpest scam ever. If a client likes that you are using special software, than he has to pay for it. Maybe the client is already nearly bankrupt and cannot pay already the products, which you should use. In such a case he would even not be able to pay you for your work in the case it is not only a scam.

  • Royalty fees
    It proves only that the “broker” has no contract with the client. For this is it already scam.

  • Security deposit
    A security deposit is given normally to this one, which is working and has some investments to do. This is in the case the call center, because they are investing in staff and phone minutes. The broker gets paid from the client for whom he is working.

  • Exuberant praising a product or campaign
    You will not be able to sell such a product to normal people. Such products are normally overpriced and trash. The purpose of such a behavior is to find stupid people, which will buy it. With the exuberant praising of a product or campaign the salesperson likes to hide the known problems of the product.

  • MLM – Multi Level Marketing
    In such a system are getting low quality products for a very high price sold. The product price needs to pay your upline and need to be a winning for the company. You need to be happy if you are at least earning the costs you have with it.

  • Repeated posting of the same campaign
    Real campaigns need to get posted only once, they get very fast taken. If a campaign gest posted longer as a few days then is in any case something wrong with the campaign.

  • The offer sounds too good to be true
    In this case the offer is only a scam

 

As more from the above points are fitting to an offer as higher is the risk for running into a trap.

 

If the offer is interesting than you should continue with making a background check to avoid getting scammed.

Buy & Sell - financial instruments

As you already found out, 99.99% of the people visiting internet boards are full of crap.

I hope the following information will give you a better insight into the actual conditions that are acceptable to the real people trading financial instruments as opposed to all of the nonsense that has been perpetrated by the brokers and others that simply do not understand the nature of this business.

First, let’s put to rest many of the things that are incorrect and inaccurate about buying and selling instruments.

Consider the following corrections to items that are pervasive throughout the brokers’ network, continue to be included in Letters of Intent, have been incorrectly applied to these transactions and are never a part of a real agreement between a real seller and his buyer counterparty in the trading world:

  • First and foremost, the days of the buyer standing in the public square and dropping his pants while the seller hides in the dark and is "protected" by some broker that calls himself the "mandate" are gone from this business, never to return.

  • The letter of intent can never become a contract. This is contrary to contract law. The seller and the buyer will always enter into an enforceable commercial contract or agreement. The letter of intent is just that, an expression of the buyer’s interest or intention. More than 95% of the time, the letter of intent is written by a broker, not by the seller and, for the most part, these brokers have just cut and pasted information that they obtained from other brokers.

  • Banking coordinates are never conveyed in a letter of intent. These are very confidential and are not the business of the broker network. In fact, banking coordinates are never conveyed in an agreement. Banking coordinates are only conveyed principal to principal.

  • The laws of perjury do not apply to any commercial document, or agreement. This is contrary to contract law and it is impossible for someone to perjure themselves in a letter of intent or interest.

  • There are no rules, regulations, acts, ordinances or laws (including the US. Patriot Act of 2001) that require a buyer to produce a proof of financial capability prior to acquiring any instrument.

  • There is no agency or department of the US Government that approves the private sale of Medium Term Notes (MTNs) or Bank Guarantees (BGs) and there is no department that issues a "Fed number" for MTNs. This is all broker nonsense.

  • Banks do not endorse fee agreements, contracts or letter of intent letter of intents. This action would place a financial liability on the bank and they cannot and will not incur that liability on behalf of their depositors.

  • Banks do not issue irrevocable conditional bank purchase orders (ICBPO), or any purchase orders, period. In fact, a bank is precluded from incurring any liability on behalf of a depositor. And, the words "irrevocable conditional" form an oxymoron. No western world bank will issue a MT543, as it is a liability on behalf of the bank. In fact, as of September 1, 2003, the MT543 is gone from the banking world.

  • Issuing banks do not enter into agreements to sell their financial instruments and the buyer’s banks do not enter into agreements to purchase the financial instruments. The agreement is always between the buyer and the seller. And no banker or securities officer is going to act on behalf of the buyer or seller until and unless there is an agreement in place.

  • Collateral first is the most misunderstood phrase. Collateral first does not mean that the actual instruments move to the buyer before payment. It means that the seller must provide an invoice setting forth the details of the instruments, before the payment is made. There is no longer such a thing as a collateral first settlement via Euroclear and there is no such thing as a "collateral first" DVP settlement, these are not the same settlement types.

  • There is no such thing as "due diligence" by some "agency" for seasoned instruments. The buy/sell transaction between private parties is private and does not require the approval of any governmental body or agency.

  • As a result of the post-September 11 rules on wire transfers of funds, it is no longer possible for buyers to move cash funds in amounts over US$500M without the funds being stopped and investigated. Accordingly, offers that set forth tranches of $1b, $5b and more, are just pure nonsense.

  • The ICC in Paris, France, is not an enforcement, adjudication or legislative body. They are simply an information body. And, they have never published anything on the subject of NCNDs. Accordingly, the ICC has no jurisdictional authority or standing in any commercial agreement.

  • Contract law sets forth that there cannot be any conflict of jurisdictional oversight to an agreement. Accordingly, an agreement cannot contain multiple jurisdictions as the controlling laws. Example: "This agreement is governed by the laws where the buyer and the seller reside and the ICC. Paris, France". Or "this agreement is governed by the laws of the USA, UK, Hong Kong, Switzerland and Germany" were written by someone who knows nothing about the law.

  • Bank guarantees are never on any screen (DTC or Euroclear) for screening, authentication or settlement. All BGs must be transacted via standard non-Euroclear DVP protocol settlement procedures.

  • Medium term notes (MTNs) are only on Euroclear, not on DTC, for screening, authentication and settlement. All MTNs and bonds on Euroclear must be transacted via standard Euroclear DVP protocol settlement procedures.

  • Prior to January 1, 2003, it was possible to settle on Euroclear with a collateral first settlement. The seller provided the buyer with the invoice containing all of the instrument and Euroclear codes, including the blocking code. The buyer would then screen the instruments, block (delivery) the instruments in its name and then pay the seller via wire transfer of funds. Euroclear called this a "free delivery" as the instruments were blocked in the name of the buyer without any funds being delivered (payment) at the same time. There were too many incidents where the funds never were wired, causing both the seller and Euroclear big problems. So, as of January 1, 2003, there are no more "free deliveries". All instruments on Euroclear must be transacted via standard Euroclear DVP protocol settlement procedures.

  • Standard Euroclear DVP protocol settlement procedures and standard non-Euroclear DVP protocol settlement procedures, do not require and, in fact, preclude the need for a proof of funds, proof of capability, financial capability letter, MT760, MT543 or MT799. This is handled in the bank to bank call, after the agreement is signed and in place. Accordingly, no one will issue these documents, as they are replaced by the bank to bank confirmation call that must take place immediately after the agreement is signed.

  • MT100 and MT103 are conditional swift transfers of cash funds. The MT100 has not been used for more than two years. The MT103 is the current method of sending a conditional swift transfer of cash funds. However, the MT103 is only used for fresh cut (new issue), funds first transactions and never for seasoned paper or a DVP settlement transaction.

  • MT760 is not a proof of funds, blocking of funds, movement of funds or settlement document. It only has one purpose. Its purpose is for the actual movements of the bank guarantee (not MTNs or bonds) from the seller’s bank officer to the buyer’s bank officer.

  • MT799 is a simple text message, sent bank to bank. In this business, this is used for a bank to bank proof of funds, only. The MT799 is not a form of payment and it is not a bank undertaking or promise to pay. It is simply a bank to bank confirmation of the funds on deposit, nothing more. And, all of those brokers out there who modify the MT799 to make it look like a bank undertaking are just kidding themselves.

  • Standby Letters of Credit (SBLCs) are not instruments that are issued, bought and sold at discounted prices. When a bank issues a SBLC, the price to the buyer is 100% of face value, plus the bank service charge for the instrument. And, the purchaser of the SBLC will ask the bank to place a restrictive endorsement on the SBLC, for the payment of a specific item of goods or services. All offers for large amounts of SBLCs at discounted prices are absolutely fraudulent offers.

  • A fee protection agreement (FPA) that states "to be determined" or "to be nominated" as the name of the paymaster for either the buyer’s side or the seller’s side is absolutely worthless. No prudent business person will issue a blank document. And, if you do not know the name of the seller’s side paymaster, then you do not have a valid offer and you do not have any way of delivering the Ready Willing and Able (RWA) letter to the seller.

  • There is no such thing as slightly seasoned instruments. Instruments are either fresh cut (new issue that has not been registered with a buyer) or they are seasoned (instruments that have already been sold to one or more buyers). While the price of seasoned instrument can vary, the fact that they are either seasoned or not seasoned is binary in nature.

  • There is no such thing as the "gray screen", a "Fed ID" approving the acquisition of MTNs, a "Fed Pool", "Fed program" or "Fed trader". This is all pure broker nonsense.

 

Meldy Brett - a typical Facebook dating scammer

A few years ago, I have been hunting for dating scammer. By this I got in contact with a girl from the Philippines. Her name as been at this time Meldy Canonigo. She has been in a very bad (proved) situation and I decided to help her a little bit.
 
Around 2 years ago I got the call for help from at one of the platforms, where a Philippina with the name Wilma - living in Austria run into troubles after her husband died by an accident. She did not speak German and did not know the steps which should be done at the government offices. She even could not know it, because they have been only married for less than 6 months. A few months they have been living at the Philippines. At this time I stopped my scammer war and helped her personally. Make the paperwork for her and supported her in getting her heritage. At this time I deleted my Facebook account too.
 
Last Sunday I got a message from the woman I helped before. Her name changed already from Cononigo to Brett. Read it by yourself:
 
As I'm living in a relationship I have only chatted without any personal interests with Meldy Brett. As she tried to keep me busy the whole day by chatting, I have been looking at her Facebook profile. You find a printout of her profile in the attached pdf document, If you take a look at her profile you'll see some comments of her actual husband Don Brett. During she has been eating by chatting with me, I liked his messages, You see it in the following chat protocoll:
 
 
Seen Thu 6:38am
 
 
That is the end of the chat. She even did not try to get in contact with me any more.
 
Why do I classify this as scam?
Very simple, if she has really only interest in being friend with me, which got lost 2 years ago, than it would not be any problem if she is married, has a boy friend or living in another relationship. I have a girl friend and living with her in a relationship too. Why we should avoid to have some friends?
 
I think that she likes to have more support and have been searching for victims at Facebook. I had deleted my Facebook account during the time I helped Wilma, the stranded Philippina in Austria. I made a new Facebook account during the year 2014.
 
I think that she only got it from my help, that it is easier to get money by scamming others than by doing some work, That can be the negative site if you are helping someone,
 
As you never know before how they people will develop their own personality with the time, I'll continue helping others. I'll be happy if someone says thank you and will forward the help he received to others when ever it is possible for him. This can make the world a little bit better.

The Gold Dust SCAM

Yesterday I got an email from a new added member at LinkedIn. The contact has been suggested by LinkedIn. After joining him, I got via LinkedIn the following message:

Frank Fugo

I need you to assist sell our Gold Dust. I am in league with some local miners on 500kg moved out already.

Frank Fugo

6. März 2015, 15:20 Uhr

Greetings, 
I am not Gold seller but Miners use me for safe keeping of their Gold. I will direct you to the End Seller if you are able to buy or get buyer. You have to Email me on: frank.fugo@gmail.com with your full information to enable me direct you to End Seller who will furnish you with more information on the Gold Dust. 
We have ruled out doing this here locally to avoid certain things. You will be brought to speed as soon as you are ready and we will first move the gold to your location while you help us buy or get buyers. You will get 20% of whatever we sell. 
Products specifications are as shown below: 
1. Gold Dust 
2. 22 Karat plus and Purity 93.5% 
3. 28,000 US Dollars for one Kg. 
4. 500Kg available. 
With possible rolls and extension. 
Best regards, 
Frank Fugo 
Frank.fugo@gmail.com 

Why is this a scam?

For this you need to know first, that gold dust is not clean gold. Each part of the dust can have other impurities.

http://portlandgoldbuyers.com says about Gold Dust and Flake Purity:

Gold dust and flakes are very similar in purity to gold nuggets.  However, there is a major difference. Since the gold nugget is a single unit, is was formed in only one place.  On the other hand, gold dust and flakes are small particles.  Because of this, and because it takes a lot of effort to gather, often, gold dust and flake samples were collected from multiple locations. However, even like this, most gold dust and flake refinery results are also in the range of eighteen karat (18K). In our experience, very few gold flake and dust material is higher than 18K. 

Gold get traded in ounces. One kilo is around 35.273990723 ounces. The actual gold price is US$ 1161.68/ounce for pure gold. 18 Karats gold consists of 750 parts gold from 1000 parts. In this case we can value now one kilo gold of 18 Karats:

US$ 1161.68 * 35.273990723 ounces / 1000 parts * 750 parts gold = $ 30732.82

If we think now logical: Why should someone sell gold under it's value? Even if we are including the transport and the costs for the gold refinery than he makes in any case a loss, because he offers 20% sales commission (from US$ 28000 are 20% = US$ 5600) and he likes earning by himself too.

If the gold dust is of a higher purity like advertised than he is even losing more. Do you know somebody in business, which is giving you a gift?

 

Aldiablos Infotech Pvt. Ltd. – aldiablos com proves that they are scammer

The scammer Aldiablos Infotech Pvt. Ltd. likes now to continue by sending out emails.  Instead of showing that they are real people and are making real business they try to go another way.

Their only problem has been that scamadviser reports about aldiablos.com:

Alert Result: The owner of the website is using a service to hide their identity
Alert Result: The website expected life (365 days) is relatively short.

Others have made some more investigations and have found at http://www.complaintboard.in/complaints-reviews/aldiablos-infotech-pvt-ltd-l325773.html:

Aldiablos Infotech Pvt Ltd big fraud company

Aldiablos infotech pvt ltd is totally Fraud Company based in Ahmedabad. We charge money from people and give projects from fake company like AZEE Group which is also based in Ahmedabad. They charged 4lac from us and azee group gave us project which we completed in given time after which they terminated the contract as saying sum fake clauses and also made the stopped payment of the cheque of Rs1320000. When contacted Azee group they said that Azee did not get any money from Aldiablos company and said they will help us to get the money back from them. Tiksha Patel is big liar and before taking the project her words were different and now she is not bother to pick up the calls also.

Please dont contact Aldiablos and Azee Group for any BPO projects as they only cheat people by taking money and such people must be arrested and company should be closed by taking off their domains.

Respected Sir , 

My name is Sugandhraj , few days before i saw an advertisement posting on Linked In , It was about business outsourcing project . Please see below link -

I normally don't believe everything what is written on other sites. Especially at complaintboard the information are not getting proved. Calumnies are the inevitable result. But in this case the poster has written his phone number into the post and the scam is matching the business.
 
Let's take a look about them at another site - http://www.grahakseva.com/complaints/169442/aldiablos-bpo-limted-fraud:
 

I had given a check of 0000 to Aldiablos BPO LTD, to procure the business. But the information that was given to me before giving the check was different and after giving the check they turned back on their words. They were supposed to give me the reference centers but they did not provide me with the reference centers. When asked about it they were not able to provide me the same with no explanations. It was then when i came to know that Aldiablos BPO Ltd is the same company as Smart Consultancy. Both the companies are running in the same office. when questioned the Director Abhishek Dubey, he told me that Aldiablos BPO Ltd is no longer associated with Smart Consultancy. But the security check that i was given had Vikram Pratap Singh's signature on it. When confronted with the same, Dubey had no answers and he walked out. This is a complete fraud. Later on i receive an email from Bhoomi Jani. She sent an email to me with the details of the same process and the email was sent under Smart Consultancy's name but when spoke to her on the phone she said she was with Aldiablos BPO Ltd. They operate under various names, namely, Smart Consultancy, Smart Human Resources, Euphoria Technologies, Aldiablos BPO Pvt Ltd. They keep on cheating people of the money and do not deliver the promised project. They do not have any work with them and they create their own project to fool people. People like Vikram Singh, Sonal Chauhan, Abhishek Dubey, Imran Mallik, Siddharth Sharma, Bhoomi Jani are the once flooding the professional network sites with their useless projects and try to prey on to innocent center owners. Even the new employees for their company do not know the exact work. They show of their premises and plush offices to the people and con them. The reason i am writing this is so that others who are planning to work with Smart Consultancy, Smart Human Resources, Euphoria Technologies, Aldiablos BPO Pvt Ltd, do not get duped and are saved.

Hello Chaitanya

 

You have also mentioned about Euphoria Technologies involved in this?

Anyone has any fraud experience with Euphoria Technologies as well?

Chaitanya Bhise

Hi Paresh

I had mentioned Euphoria Technologies purely based on hearsay but after investigation and a lot of research Euphoria Technologies is not a part of the Smart Consultancy Group and is a entirely different company.

Chaitanya Bhise

Hi Everyone I have not been in touch with these complaints as i was travelling so did not get time to update the status. As per my last comment i have already mailed the Grahak Seva to remove the name for Euphoria Technologies and hence request anyone and everyone to disregard the complaint against Euphoria Technologies as I have been satisfied with my investigation and research that Euphoria Technologies is a fair company. Thanks

Amarnath Goli

Hii

This people wasting the time with delaying the updates after signing up!!

 
My opinion about the site is the same like about the complaintboard. Only the different complaints make it more believable.
 
 
Together with this information the complaints against Smart Consultancy, Smart Human Resources, Euphoria Technologies, Aldiablos BPO Pvt Ltd, etc. are making sense and are showing that all this is an organized fraud.
