Offshore Outsourcing & Scammer

Someone who is offering investment opportunities needs to show that he is running a serious company and he is a trusted person otherwise he would not be able to find anyone who will invest into his ideas. A general rule by doing investments is as higher the promoted earnings are as higher is the risk to lose all of the invested money. Only stupid ones believe that there is any investment possible where is no risk. Making investments is sharing the risk with the investors. If someone finds a business where is no risk for the capital then he will go to the next bank and take a credit for running the business. The interest rates for taking credits are already a long time very low. Think about it why someone offers you a higher returns than the official bank rates? The answer is very simple. His business idea has such a high risk that not one bank will give him money or he is simple a scammer.

Such a scammer is Jörg M. Pohlig (other writings of his name are Joerg M. Pohlig and Jorg M. Pohlig). He is already contradicting himself in his sham offers, where is offering for investments bank guarantees. As soon as a bank is issuing an irrevocable bank guarantee the amount of this bank guarantee is not accessible for anyone except the recipient of the bank guarantee. The money remains at the bank account until it gets withdrawn by the recipient. Only the interest rate gets calculated until the money will get withdrawn. The interest remains on the bank account of the owner. Don't forget that not one bank will take any risks in such a case and don't forget that a bank guarantee need to get accepted from your bank too otherwise the guarantee has even not the value of the paper where it is written on it. So which kind of bank guarantee can be used in the investment business? The amount covered by an irrevocable bank guarantee cannot get used for any other purpose.

The scammer Jörg M. Pohlig is offering at LinkedIn:

The sentence above "Guaranteed success or full funds returned" is confirming the scam. If any investment would be so secure why he is not taking credit from a bank? There he would get the money cheaper than with the offer here if the investment is very secure. In this case he would only need to pay the interest rate to the bank and need not share any high returns with you. Don't forget investors are very greedy by nature - they are fighting even for fractions from cents.

A partner in crime from the scammer Jörg M. Pohlig is Antonella Mendelson. She likes to be since 2005 at LinkedIn a self employed "Attorney at law" and at Xing she likes to be actually a "managing director" located in Budapest, Hungary. Additional she provides at Xing the information that she is speaking the languages English, German, Romanian and Hungarian. At both profiles, LinkedIn and Xing, she likes to make us to believe that she has attended the Universita Cattolica Del Sacro Cuore. Her problem is that this University is located in Milano, Italy. If she really would have studied there than she needs to speak Italian language too. Even her profile picture makes for me more the impression that she is nothing else than one of the girls, who have offered their services at the street to the tourists after the borders between Hungary and Austria got removed. Under these circumstances is her recommendation for Jörg M. Pohlig, given at the his LinkedIn profile, only a confirmation for his scam:

Jörg is a very capable, hard working individual and is very happy when his projects end successfully.

The scammer Jörg M. Pohlig has published actually 129 articles at LinkedIn, but his website shows the impressing content:

The highlighted Durch sentence "Vraag naar dit domein" on the lower right part of the screenshot above means translated "Demand for this domain". With other words the domain is available for sale. But who will buy a domain together with a negative reputation?

Does anyone believe that one offer can get trusted coming from a broker who is using a free email address from a domain where you can get during a Google search 278,000 results if you are combining the domain name with the word scam? Does anyone think such a broker can make any real business? You can get email addresses with the ending @financier.com for free and without any verification from mail.com. Under these conditions take a view at the posting from the scammer Jörg M. Pohlig on July 21, 2016 at LinkedIn Pulse:

wwfn@financier.com
Dear Colleagues,

We had issues with our email account and called tech-support who unfortunately cancelled our long standing account all together. Afterwards they asked for several hundreds of Dollars to reinstate the accounts. Rather than struggling for much longer we created a brandnew email. One has to be careful which number to dial for support, I googled this one and thought I was in good hands. Please use this account from now on only.>>wwfn@financier.com
Thank you very much for your cooperation.

It looks for others that his email account got deleted for the reason of his behavior and not for any other reason. Such a reason is normally sending out a lot of spam messages. Especially free services are not allowing you sending spams.

Another World Wide Funding Network (WWFN, LLC) scammer is calling himself Alfred Schubert. Like each scammer is he not able to show his own picture at his LinkedIn profile - he simple does not like to provide a manhunt picture by himself and for this reason he shows the picture from Thomas Müller, Chief Executive at Sparkasse Goch-Kevalaer-Weeze (Germany):

The website wwfn.org has the same impressing content like financier.com:

If someone is investing into WWFN then his greed is greater than his intelligence. That fact makes him to be the perfect victim of a scammer like Jörg. M. Pohlig and his cronies. Not one fairly intelligent person invests in such dubious offers where the broker likes to hide himself in anonymity. The looser Jörg M. Pohlig is even too lazy and too stupid for playing the role of a serious investment broker.

As more a scammer is in need of earning some money as more unbelievable are coming their offers. One of this scammers is Mel Puleo from cmpuleoconsulting.com. Everybody should know that the margin in the electronics industry are very tight. As more vendors are coming up on the market as lower coming the average prices and margins. That happens in each industry and not only in the electronics and solar industry.

Some background information about prices and margins are getting found by a Google search. For example is written at CleanTechnica from February 2014:

However, prices vary tremendously by region. “Common residential system prices ranged from less than $3.00/W to just above $7.00/W,” the Solar Energy Industries Association wrote in 2014 regarding 2013 figures. The story hasn’t changed much since then, even though prices on both ends have come down.

Woodlawn Associates shows the possible margins a little bit better in their article The Economics of Residential Solar Installation:

The average dealer in our most recent project had revenue of $4.60 per Watt DC ($5.54 per Watt AC) over the past 12 months. The typical dealer had a cost to install of $3.71 per Watt — 80% of revenue. Earlier this year, we found dealers spend an average of 17% of revenue to acquire customers. This leaves only 3% for general and administrative expenses and profit, suggesting typical installer profits are slim. Consider that over the past year Real Goods Solar, the only publically traded firm in the residential installation industry, had G&A expenses alone that averaged 6% of revenue. (Real Goods also lost money during this period.)

The above example shows that not more than 15% - 17% from the complete costs of a solar system can get used for acquiring customers. Don't forget that the costs from Mel Puleo and her C.M. Puleo Consulting company are already included in these costs as he is nothing else running than a consulting company and the trading company makes already no earnings by paying these commission rates. Who will work for free?

By observing the facts from above you need to take a look at the spam offer from Mel Puleo - C.M. Puleo Consulting:

From: Mel Puleo, Solar [mailto:mel@cmpuleoconsulting.com]
Sent: Friday, March 11, 2016 7:33 PM
Subject: Re: Highest Payout for Solar campaign up to 7K/sale

To whom it may concern:

Our company is seeking experienced Telemarketing center in sales. The solar energy industry is growing rapidly in CA and we are building our sales team to meet the demand.

Compensation for each sale can range from $4K to $10K and beyond.

This is the most competitive Compensation in the industry bar none.

$500.00 commission is paid upfront the following week on every sale, the rest gets paid out on install [30/35 days out from the date of sale]

Our Floor commissions include “NO Adders”, this means you keep 100% of your earned compensation, no other Company offers this, and can typically eat away at your overall commission by 30 to 60%.

We will only entertain nothing less than 10 agents to start.

If you're 100% confident, you have killer closers & you feel that your center has what it takes to close over the phone, we have the best trainer in the industry “BAR NONE” that will walk you by the hand until you can fly on your own.

We are also looking for Appointment Setters, call for comp plan.

Feel free to contact us via skype or thru the phone listed below.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you.

The scam gets already shown in the above sentence "Compensation for each sale can range from $4K to $10K and beyond", because a typical solar energy installation for house has less than 5kW and has a usually price range of less than US$ 20,000. If we calculate from this price the maximum from 17% total paid commission than we get including the earnings from C.M. Puleo Consulting only US$ 3,400 and not US$ 4,000 like written in the email offer for the center.

If we take a look at the site Recruiter about the average income from a solar sales representative, than we'll find there the following statement:

A Solar Sales Representative or Assessor gets a compensation ranging between 64000 and 96000 depending on experience and domain knowledge. Solar Sales Representatives and Assessors earn a compensation of Eighty Four Thousand Four Hundred dollars each year.

An average income from US$ 84,400 per year equals to US$ 7,033 per month. Such a sales person needs only to sell two solar systems per month to be a profit for his company if the commission for each sale is US$ 4,000.

As the salary from the sales representative cannot get replaced with telemarketing agents how many sales such a sales representative needs to make per day that the telemarketer and the sales representative are able to earn their income?

Don't forget that from the before calculated total possible commission of US$ 3,400 per sale has to get paid the telemarketer, the sales representative and C. M.Puleo Consulting Company. I hope everybody sees now the scam in the offer above.

Real companies are going offshore for increasing their earnings by lowering their cost per sale and not to spend more. Especially in the technical industry are the margins very tight and each company tries to reduce their own costs. For this reason is already the offer from C.M. Puleo nothing else than a big lie. Under these circumstances are coming the complaints about C.M. Puleo Consulting believable which get found at:

• Complaints List - December 16, 2014 - A Warning To All ESCO’s

• At PissedConsumer.com we'll find in a comment from calvin the sentence: "mel puleo is also scammer i was with door to door energy he never paid us our dues.". This comment is dated on Feb 08, 2015.

A few from the complains listed above got written by the same person, but that does not make them unbelievable. Combined with the other complaints they are making sense. Especially the Ripoff Report from August 2, 2012 where Mel Puleo complains David Hjorth shows the fails and/or scam history from Mel Puleo:

• Race Car 2000 Classifieds: Electric Cars Are Here! Stop Buying Gas!
  Mel Puleo tried to sell cars that required no gas or maintenance ever. The scammer would be happy to accept US $12,000 of your hard earned money despite the fact that there is not one car in stock or you are able to make a test drive before you buy.
  This fact got confirmed by Mel Puleo himself at a comment to the Ripoff Report from August 2, 2012. There he has written: "Yes I had tried to launch a Electric Car Business, but my contact in S. Korea was not willing to have $$$ sit in escrow until products was delivered". With other words the buyer should even take the risk that the business owner can get scammed from his business partner in South Corea. A nice idea of C. M. Puleo reducing his own risk to zero!

All the above facts are showing what C. M. Puleo is understanding under business: Having an idea and the earnings, others should risk their hard earned money, doing the work and cry for their earnings because they will not get paid and the investment will never returned. I call such a behavior scam.

Already the content of the message shows the character from the person. Instead of explaining where I'm wrong with my opinion, he is threatens only with legal action. The only problem is that he needs to show some evidence in front of the law court. He should also read the full legal disclaimer from this site for knowing my address too. He will need it for selecting the court and in front of the court.

A company where the staff members are all hiding themselves behind symbols instead of real portrait pictures is every time very suspect. Such people don't like to provide manhunt pictures for the authorities by themselves. This may have other reasons in the case of Ace Infosys, because these people made in their drug intoxication of an online shoe and apparel retailer an airline. Normally you can recognize idiots already by looking at their profile picture and for this reason they are not providing pictures of themselves at their LinkedIn profiles.

Already the LinkedIn Company page from Ace Infosys shows discrepancies and makes the company not really trustfully:

Discrepancies at the above information are getting found at:

1. There are nowhere any information about outsourcing any call center processes getting found. All information provided are showing a normal hard and software support.
   
   
2. Ace Infosys tells about themselves that they have between 1 and 10 employees, but you'll find 38 from their employees at LinkedIn. Not one of them is able to show their face.
   
   
3. The provided website aceinfosys.co.uk does not exits. The domain is registered but the provider one.com deleted already the DNS entry from their servers. Hosting providers are doing this at the time the monthly fees are not getting paid. The domain registration data from aceinfosys.co.uk are:

What can you expect from someone, which is even not able to pay his Internet provider? Does someone think that he will get something for the asked up-front fees? You only can be sure that you'll get scammed if you buy something from such a creature.

You can also be sure that not one outsourcing company will search for a broker or consultant abroad and not one outsourcing company will make with such untrustworthy people any business. As soon as a businessman has any doubt about a service provider this service provider will not be able to make any business. It seems that only call center start-ups are the stupid ones, which trust to the promises of such scammers.

One from the scammer staff of Ace Infosys is someone with the LinkedIn profile Chhaya Sharma:

chhaya sharma
Business Development Executive at ACE Infosys
Ahmedabad Area, India | Outsourcing/Offshoring
Current: Business Development Executive at ACE Infosys

Phone: +91-7043338817
Skype: chhaya.sharma68
Email: schhaya866@gmail.com

His posts at LinkedIn are full of scam (.pdf-file). The same scam can get found at his recent activities (.pdf-file). Here are a few examples listed from the scam offers:

Travel data are protected by the data protection law. For the case that one airline violates the law the landing rights for this airline will get revoked. Does anyone think that any airlines will take such a risk?

Take a look at the picture. The scammer did even not search for a real picture from an not existing Zappos airplane for his promotion. Does someone believe that the marketing department from any airline will hire such an amateur, where even the windows in front of the airplane will get covered from the logo?

If someone is interested about Zappos than he can find at http://www.zappos.com/d/about-zappos and http://www.zapposinsights.com/ the information: "Zappos.com was established in 1999 to offer the best possible online shopping experience for footwear". Only a scammer under drugs can make from a joint promotion of jetBlue and Zappos, an online retailer, an airline (Article from Market Wired - JetBlue and Zappos.com Deliver Happiest Travel Day to Customers at JFK International Airport).

The scammer Ace Infosys - Chhaya Sharma confirms with this offer that he even does not understand how transport companies are working and how the documents are getting created. I think he has never visited a cargo port. There is no time to scan some documents, send them somewhere and wait for any returns. Documents are getting created at the source station where the goods are loaded into the shipping container. Barcodes are getting printed and fixed on the goods and on the container immediately for avoiding mistakes in routing of the container.

The scam gets found in the offer above in the words "no target". If there is no target than there is no work available. Nobody pays you for doing nothing.

I think that even banks in India need to be in competition with others for not losing any customers. For this they will not give any information out of their office about their customers. Such customer lists can get sold for a high price to their competitors. Why any bank on the world shall give you access to their customer database? Everbody, included the people from India, knows about the fraud coming from India. Why one bank should take such a risk?

The average income of an Australian agent has been 2015 AU$21.05. Why shall take one company the risk by going offshore for saving only AU$3 (US$2.13) per hour and per agent? Does really someone think that an advance billing results into an advance payment? Some big companies need the advance billing time for getting the approval of the contract from their management. The payment will get done as soon as the work is done and confirmed from the for the project responsible company staff. Using such a phrase in a campaign offer is a negative promotion because it means that the client has very strong approval rules and you'll get paid very late. This offer confirms that the scammer Chhaya Sharma and his company Ace Infosys has never been working in international business and he does even not understand the business terms.

An article from December 19, 2015 about the scam from ACE Infosys can get found at Scammer: Sandeep Yadav - Viral Pithadiya - aceinfosysos.com - does even not know what legal services are. Other scam complaints about Ace Infosys are getting found at:

Facebook page ACE Infosys from September 30, 2015 has Solvier Research written:

Hello people, Do not trust this company for any kind of business, they take money in advance from people and by promising many things and do all the required formalities just to make you believe that they are genuine company, even give a fake reference too and till the time you do not pay any advance to them which they demands for the business they calls it a consulting charges and for 24/7 support services they being very nice to you chase you all the time but once they receive the money from you their real face comes up. They are sitting just to make a fool out of people. We as a company believed them and picked up a project from them (AD posting), we paid a good amount of money in advance, initially they were like it is an very easy process just copy paste of details which we will be providing on the websites which we will be giving apart from that they don't tell you anything when you try to ask they just say nothing else is there and their payment mode would be daily basis and promises the moment we receive the advance this project will be live straight away with in half an hour. So we paid them a good amount of advance and then after we had to chase them for more then a week (at least 10 calls a day), then after they sent the details saying websites you need to find out by yourself which they never told us before, Secondly after chasing them for almost 2 weeks our project went live and when we sent them a billing of everyday's work consistently for 3 days, they just disappeared stopped answering calls, no email reply . We had mode of conversation with DEV their so called project taker, DEEPAK RAJPUT their so called sales manager and eventually AJAY RAJPUT the Owner of the company. Beaware of this Company, dont get fooled by them .Just stay away from them.

If we take a look at the employees of Ace Infosys (LinkedIn search) than we see that not one can show their face at their profile picture. Such people have something to hide. I think you'll escape in real life from a shop too where the sales staff hides themselves behind a mask. Why should you trust someone which cannot show his face on the Internet?

Here you'll find some other staff from Ace Infosys - from the members in my network only (.pdf-file. More you can find at a LinkedIn search):

My comment: It seems that this scammer likes to be a little girl, which cannot get prosecuted in front of the law court. For this purpose she is using a picture, which gets found 607 times at the Google picture search.

It seems that every criminal (scammers are criminals) is able to register a company in India. The problem is that a company registration does not make them trustful in this case. It makes it only easier for the authorities to prosecute the company owner.

The problem is only that a company with the name Ace Infosys is not getting found at the Indian Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

Update November 21, 2015: Maybe it is not clear enough in the original article, but it does not matter if the scammer is paying the centers or not in this case. The scam starts by generating the calls for the “Tech support”:

• Offered installation calls for Mcafee, Norton, MS Office, Printer setup
  A customer, which buys a product and which is not working on his site, likes to get his money back. For this reason he will complain the seller or the hotline from the manufacturer of the product and will not call someone where he has even to spend more money than he has spent already. This is called guarantee for a product. The producer or seller of the product needs to get the chance to solve the problem before he has to give the money back to the customer. That is consumer law and for this reason are the offers of the “installation calls” nothing else than scam. Nobody will pay for something where he has a right to get it for free.
  
  
• Blue screen calls
  For the case a blue screen happens is there nowhere shown a phone number to call. Real blue screen cases are happening during system malfunctions based on some hardware or memory defects, failures of drivers or by installing some suspicious software. A blue screen cannot get solved from remote and by using some remote desktop programs because these programs are not functioning during the time a blue screen happens. As you need to try to reproduce the problem will it be hard job to do such work from remote with a normal and technical not interested user on the other end.
  
  
• Pop up calls
  If the pop-up is more than a simple promotion the offer is a scam. Even UK Financial Fraud Action is warning to give untrusted people remote access to their computer. Everybody knows how many people are using pop-up blocker and adblocker. The advertising industry is already crying about percentage of people can get reached. How will in this case a scammer generate enough calls which he likes to sell?

In any case call centers should be aware that participating in a fraud system is a criminal action and gets prosecuted. If you buy calls which are getting generated by malware you’ll be in the first line of investigation because of the money flow from the victim to you. Maybe the real criminal disappears in the meantime and you are the only remaining one which gets prosecuted. If the seller can get found is not so bad for you because in this case you’ll get prosecuted only for the dubious purchase but it can come worse too as everybody likes to protect himself in front of law.

The above facts cannot get discussed away. On the other site G. P. Singh tries to use the revenge postings from other scammers to use against me instead of trying to explain me where I’m wrong in my understanding his offer. The same way all other scammers are acting too. The problem is only that there are no evidences and the postings did not get proved from anyone. Richa Softwaresolution has even tried to fake an email from me but could even not provide mailheaders for it. This try can get found in my article Fake emails which seems to be from Rudolf Faix - rudolffaix@gmail.com - rudolf.faix@wwpa.com. Such an email gets shown at the screenshot below:

Original arcticle:

At the LinkedIn profile from G. P. Singh gets shown how a formerly successful businessman has changed to be now a scammer. The statement from G. P. Singh in answer to a comment shows already the scam: "There are no details to send. Decice what you want, place an order, prepay and we deliver the calls. Simple!".

Maybe the scammer does not know that Microsoft, Symantec (Norton), Intel (McAffee) and the manufacturers like Canon, HP, Dell, etc. have their own support hotline where their customers can call free of charge and get support without paying for it. The calls to these support hotlines are even used for improving their products. But it seems that the scammer G. P. Singh has already lost his ability to think and is only interested in getting money for nothing.

For the case that a center owner pays for getting such a kind of calls and he gets really some calls then these calls are getting generated by malware and fake websites. That is a crime which gets prosecuted. In such a case the center owner needs to think how he gets paid for his fraud service. The money flow will make the center owner to a scammer and bring him into the first line of investigation. Here are some examples about tech support scam, which got already prosecuted:

• FTC, Pennsylvania and Connecticut Sue Tech Support Scammers That Took More Than $17 Million From Consumers
• Federal Court Orders Tech Support Scammers to Pay More Than $5.1 Million
• Operators of Alleged Tech Support Scam Settle FTC Charges, Will Surrender Money and Property
• FTC Testifies on Efforts to Stop Illegal Tech Support Scams Before Senate Special Committee on Aging

Here is a screenshot from the scam offer:

Maybe the scammer G. P. Singh needs some money for disappearing because the Stock Fraud Attorney Fitapelli | Kurta is actually searching for more victims of a fraud done by Zen Financial Services and Jonathan Bao:

These 2x ETFs are highly speculative investments which present a significant amount of risk to investors.

The longer these ETFs are held on for, the harder they become to predict and the less likely an investor is to make any money.

The attorneys at Fitapelli Kurta prosecute cases on behalf of investors like you who have lost money as a result of unsuitable investments recommended by firms like Zen Financial Services and Royal Alliance. These cases are taken on a contingency fee basis only, which means our firm will not receive any compensation whatsoever unless and until you recover money.

Cases are filed with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and will submit to arbitration. Fitapelli Kurta has filed hundreds of cases before FINRA and has recovered millions on behalf of investors who have fallen victim to broker misconduct. Do not delay.

Update November 21, 2015 - A statement from Mr. G. P. Singh:

Also, ZenFinancial, has nothing to do with the 'Zen Financial Services' which you are referring to, so please remove this post, ASAP

Maybe he is right in this case, but it is his problem to use the same name of a fraud company. As Microsoft and the other companies are not publishing his phone numbers for their support services remains the question how the calls are generated. The offer includes "Blue Screen calls" and "Pop Up calls". As no phone number gets shown at a blue screen it will be very hard for a scammer to find any arguments why someone should call his number if there is no scareware or malware used for generating this kind of calls. Scareware and malware distribution is a crime!

Update November 21, 2015 - A personal message to me from a Facebook member:

I saw your post regarding Mr Singh. He has a lot of campaigns to offer. I am supposedly going to run his payday loan campaign but a supposed to be 1-2 minutes script to run by an agent he wanted the call to run for 15 minutes. Which is very impossible and the pay is $9 only per succesful transfer. Definitely all centers who gets campaigns from him lost. I have never seen an outbound campaign with a very short script to run on a call for 15 mins or more. I think too hes a scammer. You may check his zen blog page for diff campaigns

It seems that the scammer Munna Shaikh needs urgently money and for this reason he has invented a form filling campaign.  Like each scammer he cannot show his face and uses instead a stolen graphic as profile picture. He does not like to provide a manhunt picture by himself.  He provides only one contact possibility - an Indian phone number – besides the email address he uses at the moment.  With other words everything is prepared for a fast disappearing.

With the statement “SO AT LEAST, WE MUST EARN SOME THING ON PROJECTS” in his email he declares by himself, that he does not have any contract with the client and that he is a scammer. With this statement he is declaring that at least he – the scammer - has to earn an invention fee paid by the center. A client which hires a broker has to pay the broker!

The LinkedIn mail from the Scammer Munna Shaikh:
