** Please consider the environment before printing this email **

The above email is nothing else than spam from a scammer. The offer is for the following reasons nothing else than anadvanced fee scam:

1. Not one company uses free email addresses for sending their offers
   
   
2. Not one company is sending emails only by using their company name. The staff of the company is sending emails. The name of the person, which sent this email, is missing.
   
   
3. Typical for a scammer is that he writes everything in bold letters. He is afraid that something can get overseen.
   
   
4. It seems that the scammer does not have any education and have never seen a bank (loan department) from inside. In such a case he would know that such forms are getting filled directly at the front desk from the bank staff. The customer needs only to sign the printout. How can such a process get outsourced?
   
   
5. The missing education and knowledge of the scammer gets found in the fact that loan form data are highly protected by the law in the traditional outsourcing countries (Australia, European Union, USA). Such data are not allowed to leave the bank office. Rejected loan forms and data need to get destroyed immediately as soon the case is closed. Not one bank will take the risk and outsource such a kind of data processing.
   
   
6. Borrowers are normally taking loans from the bank where they are already well known. The success rate for getting the loan is much higher than trying to get the loan from another bank. In such a case the full and relevant business history is already stored in the bank computer and no manual action (form filling) is necessary.
   
   
7. With the words "Commercial Involved" and "Business Procurement Charges" confirms the scammer that he has no contract with any client and for this no income. With other words are the requested fees or charges are nothing else than invention fees or scammer surviving fees.
   
   
8. A search for "Star Technologies" at the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in India returned the results Star Technologies and Systems Private Limited from Patna, Bihar and Star Technologies Private Limited from Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. Both locations are far away from the place where I have located the scammer today with the IP addresses (Skype resolver) 123.136.154.168 and 123.136.155.23. Both IP addresses are locate in the area of Gugal Pimpari - southwest of Washim - far away from the companies found at the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
   
   
9. Not one outsourcing client will search for a broker or consultant in a low wage country. A broker or consultant get searched local at the place of the the client. The broker or consultant will get paid from the client directly. If some client is searching abroad then he will search for center doing his work directly and save in this case the money for the broker or consultant.

A BPO center owner who wants to have such an offer, can only blame himself if he is gets cheated. My compassion is very limited in such a case. Some people need to learn their business by using the hard way.

The Scammer Star Technologies is even not able to use his name in his spam email, which he has sent out. They are even using only free hosting services and the free email from Google. It seems they are so poor that they even have not enough money for registering at least a limited company and a domain. They are thinking that sending out an email with an invented campaign can make them rich by taking some up-front fees.

Everybody is stupid, which sends them some money. If you have done that already than you should go into the next hospital and let check yourself for any mental illness!

In the traditional outsourcing countries are no Form Filling campaigns available. The law does not allow that consumer or customer data are getting accessed from offshore. The fines are very high and since the case from AT&T you'll not find any company, which likes to take such a risk.

You even can be sure that not one company from Australia, Canada, European Union and USA will hire for their outsourcing process a company from India or another low wage country. Especially such companies, which are even not able to present themselves in a serious way. Freemailer, no own domain, etc. are the signs of SCAMMER. Each company will define accuracy parameters if they would outsource such a campaign.

The scammer Star Technologies even is to lazy to inform themselves about the kinds and functions of a bank guarantee. They only try to impress with a lot of words and promises but the even don't know about what they are writing.

You can find the following reports already about Star Technoglogies at this blog:

• Spammer & Scammer: star-technologies.webstarts.com - contactstartechnologies@gmail.com
• Email Scammer: star-technologies.webstarts.com - contactstartechnologies@gmail.com - Update

It seems that Star Technologies is even to stupid for scamming!

It seems that the last email scam described at "Spammer & Scammer: star-technologies.webstarts.com - contactstartechnologies@gmail.com" has not brought any success. For this Star Technologies has sent out a new spam/scam email with a little bit more information. The campaign description seems too good to be true.

Even mathematics is not the strongest site of this scammer. 10 agents :* $1100/per month = $11000 and not $10500 like the offered bank guarantee.

As the working hours are given as Indian hours, which should not matter for a form filling process, can the client be only in India or up to 2 hours in front. This makes the offer even more suspect, because in this area is no traditional outsourcing country available, where wages of $1100/agent per month are getting paid.

Update Jan. 18, 2017: Link to star-technologies.webstarts.com removed as it returns error 404 - not found.

As most the scammer escaped they are trying now to get in contact with centers by sending out mass emails. I can only warn from making business on this way. Let us take the example from star-technologies.webstarts.com:

• webstarts.com is hosting the site star-technologies.webstarts.com for free.
  For this you see their promotion on the website of star-technologies.webstarts.com on the bottom line: Create A Free Website With WebStarts.com
  
  
• star-technologies.webstarts.com is only a subdomain from webstarts,com and does not require an own registration as an domain
  
  
• star-technologies.webstarts.com has no address written on their website
  
  
• star-technologies.webstarts.com has only a free gmail.com address
  
  
• Another contact possibility is only their Skype ID: contactstartechnologies

If you try to make business with them then you have nothing to find them physically. They have done everything to hide themselves in the anonymity of the Internet. They are only using free services, because they have not enough money available to register their own domain and present themselves. Such subdomains and free services are normally used only from private people for their hobby websites. In business are they only an alert of scam.

Here is their spam email:

I don't know which forms should get filled and from where the data should come. You can only be sure that the date are not coming from the traditional outsourcing countries, because there are the consumer data protected by law and are not allowed to get exported. The low wage countries will not outsource some of their work. For this the offer is nothing else then SCAM!!!
